3. Nesting on
4. Paper saved by nesting
When does the printer try to nest pages?
When both of the following are true:
●
The printer is loaded with roll paper, not sheet paper.
●
In the front panel's Job Management menu or the Embedded Web Server's Job Management
page, Nest is On.
What pages can be nested?
All pages can be nested, unless they are so large that two of them cannot fit side by side on the roll, or
unless there are too many of them to fit into the remaining length of the roll. A single group of nested
pages cannot be split between two rolls.
Which pages qualify for nesting?
In order to be in the same nest, the individual pages must be compatible in all of the following ways:
●
All pages must have the same print quality setting (Fast, Normal, or Best).
●
The Maximum Detail and More Passes settings must be the same on all pages.
●
The Margins setting must be the same for all pages (Extended or Normal).
●
The Mirror Image setting must be the same for all pages.
●
The Rendering Intent must be the same for all pages.
●
The Cutter setting must be the same for all pages.
●
The color adjustment settings must be the same for all pages. See
Color adjustment options
on page 76.
●
Pages must be all color, or all grayscale: not some in color and some in grayscale.
