successfully with the substrate you are using.

Create a print job
In order to print something, you must send it to the printer. This constitutes a print job, which is
entered into the printers print queue. There are two main ways of sending a print job to the printer:
●To print directly from a program, use the programs Print command as usual. When you select
your HP Designjet printer, the printer driver is invoked to send your job to the printer.
●If you have a file that is already in a supported graphical format, you can use the Embedded
Web Server...

Printing stored jobs
When you print a file with the Embedded Web Server, you can mark the job to be stored permanently
in the printer.
If you select Stored jobs in printer in the Main tab of the Embedded Web Server, you will see a list
of the stored jobs. The information displayed for each job includes:
●The name of the job
●The size of the job
●The date and time when the job was received by the printer
●The name given by the person who submitted the job
You can click on the title of any column to sort...

You can select print-quality options in the following ways:
●In the Windows driver dialog: go to the Paper/Quality tab and look at the Print Quality
section. If you select Standard Options, you will see a simple slider with which you can select
speed or quality. If you select Custom Options, you will see the more specific options described
above.
●In the Mac OS Print dialog (PCL3 driver): go to the Paper/Quality panel and look at the
Quality Options section. If you select Standard quality options, you...

NOTE:If you have disabled skew checking, the paper length is estimated as four times the
width.
TIP:If your document is 330 × 483 mm (13 × 19 in), designed to fit on sheet paper of the same size,
select the document size Super B/A3.
Custom paper sizes
To choose a non-standard paper size not shown in the list of paper sizes:
●Under Windows, there are three different ways:
◦In the driver dialog, press the Custom button in the Paper/Quality tab, then specify the
name and the dimensions of your new paper...

●In the Mac OS X 10.5 or 10.6 Print dialog (PostScript driver): select the Margins/Layout
panel.
●On the Embedded Web Servers Submit Job page: select Advanced settings > Paper >
Layout/Margins.
You will then see at least some of the following options.
NOTE:Under Mac OS, the available margins options depend on the paper size selected in the
Page Setup dialog. For instance, for borderless printing you must select a paper size name that
includes the words “no margins”.
●Standard. Your image will be printed...

The driver options are now adjusted to suit your job. You can either print immediately, or examine the
settings to check that you agree with them. If you like, you can select a shortcut and then change
some of its settings manually.
TIP:Check at least the settings that you can see in the Printing Shortcuts tab: the document size,
orientation, etc.
The Factory Defaults shortcut contains the printers default settings. When you click it, it sets all
options to their default values.
Printing shortcuts can be...

You can rescale an image in the following ways:
●In the Windows driver dialog: go to the Features tab and look at the Resizing Options section.
◦The Print document on option adjusts the image size to the paper size you have selected.
For example, if you have selected ISO A2 as the paper size and you print an A3-sized
image, it is enlarged to fit the A2 paper. If the ISO A4 paper size is selected, the printer
reduces a larger image to fit the A4 size.
◦The % of actual size option enlarges the printable...
