Print Job Control Module

Offsets

A job's vertical and horizontal offset parameters  can be  changed with the
mouse wheel when the mouse cursor is  positioned over the field.  Rotate the
mouse wheel up or down increments or  decrements offset at the  rate of  one
unit per  notch. Hold the  right mouse  button and  rotate  the wheel increments
or  decrements at the  rate of 10 units per notch. An  alternate method to
change parameter values is to click on  the  field  and this brings up an onscreen
keyboard so  you can  click on  the  numbers required. You can  also use Preview
to  drag an  image to the  desired position.

Print Modes Explained

•

Express

mode provides fast printing but image quality depends on all nozzles jetting ink. It is

best with images that do not have large areas of solid color or high saturation.

•

Production

mode allows a wide variety of printing output. As with high-speed modes on any

inkjet printer, there is insufficient nozzle redundancy to produce flawless images all the time on
all media. As a result, it may be necessary to print some output in Quality Mode.

•

Quality

provides excellent image quality and is suitable for a wide range of image types and

looks good with most media.

•

Quality

‐

Density

doubles the density for backlit media. For flatbed media that may warp or

move slightly from the heat of the lamps, this mode provides better image registration than
Overprint because it is done in one gantry pass.

•

Quality

‐

Smooth

mode is a slower version of Quality mode that features unusually high nozzle-

redundancy. Although not  an  excuse for  poor maintenance practices, this  print mode  allows
most technically difficult images to be printed successfully, even if the  printer is in less than
optimal printing condition. is a slower version of  Quality mode that features unusually high
nozzle-redundancy.

•

Quality

‐

Layered

allows you to place multiple layers in one print job. It is most useful when

printing with White Ink (see Chapter 9 How to Work with White Ink and Varnish). You must
configure any extra layers in the ONYX software.
