IMPORTANT
Do not place anything other than output paper in the trays of the finisher, as doing
so may damage the trays.
Do not place anything under the trays of the finisher, as doing so may damage
the trays.
[22]
#
NOTE
If the finishing is used, the output trays move downward as the stack of paper that
is output increases in quantity and thickness. Once an output tray has reached its
stacking limit, subsequent prints are automatically delivered to the next available
tray. If all of the available trays have reached their stacking limits, printing stops
temporarily. Remove all of the output paper from the trays. The trays move upward
and printing resumes.
If the optional Booklet Trimmer-D1 is attached to the Saddle Finisher-AJ2, you
cannot output stapled paper to the booklet.
#
CAUTION
Do not place your hands in the part of the tray where stapling is performed (near
the rollers) when a finisher is attached, as this may result in personal injury.

Stapling
#
IMPORTANT
During stapling, the output trays move downward as the stack of paper that is
output increases in quantity and thickness. Once an output tray has reached its
stacking limit, or after 100 sets of prints have been output, printing and stapling
stop temporarily. Remove all of the stapled prints from the output tray, and
printing and stapling resume.
You can corner and double staple A3, B4, A4, A4R, and B5 paper.
You can corner and double staple 11" x 17", LGL, LTR, LTRR and EXEC paper.
You cannot staple vellums, transparencies, or labels.
Do not pull copies or prints out of the output area while they are being stapled.
Remove the copies or prints after they are output to one of the output trays.
#
NOTE
If you want to staple more than 50 sheets (80 g/m² /22 lb Bond) of A3, B4, or
A4R paper, or 100 sheets (80 g/m² / 22 lb Bond) of A4 or B5 paper, the
copies/prints are only offset but not stapled. In addition, when selecting coated
or heavy paper, you may not be able to use stapling even if the number of sheets,
including sheet insertions or job separators, is below the set limit of a finisher.
If you want to staple more than 50 sheets (80 g/m² / 22 lb Bond) of 11"x 17",
LGL or LTRR paper, or 100 sheets (80 g/m² / 22 lb Bond) of LTR or EXEC paper,
the copies/prints are only offset but not stapled. In addition, when selecting coated
or heavy paper, you may not be able to use stapling even if the number of sheets,
including sheet insertions or job separators, is below the set limit of a finisher.
If the machine stops while stapling because almost all of the staples have been used
the staple cartridge must be replaced.

Introduction
To maximize efficient and productive printing, the operating concept of the system, is
based on the following principles.
Document preparation / job submission and production printing are clearly separated
steps in the workflow.
Media definition is done by choosing from a media catalog instead of selecting trays.
Operation is intuitive and convenient at all workflow steps.
The workflow is entirely integrated because all components work together seamlessly.

Introduction
A color pre-set is a collection of color and quality settings that matches a specific document
type, workflow or color application. The color pre-sets enable users to select the correct
settings easily without in-depth knowledge about color management.
The controller provides the following color pre-sets to start printing immediately.
'Office documents' to print the Microsoft Office documents.
The Microsoft Office documents use the RGB color space.
'Photographic content' to print documents from photo editing or layout applications.
These documents use the CMYK color space.
A color expert can create more color pre-sets. The color pre-sets appear in the printer
driver and in PRISMAprepare (optional software).

Introduction to the 'Media' section
Introduction to the media handling
Introduction
The machine supports a wide range of media, including tabs and inserts. The supported
media sizes range from 203 mm x 203 mm (minimum) to 305 mm x 457 mm (maximum).
The supported media weights range from 33 - 202 lb bond for media that are recommend-
ed by the manufacturer, and 40 - 135 lb bond for other media.
This section describes the following:
Media handling in general
The 'Media catalog'
Temporary media.
General introduction to the media handling
All the print jobs require media that you can assign to the paper trays via the operator
panel. The print jobs can require media that are included in the 'Media catalog'. However,
the print jobs can also require media that are not included in the 'Media catalog'. These
media become temporary media on the system.
What is the media catalog
The media catalogue is a list of predefined media and media attributes which you can
define in the Settings Editor application on the PRISMAsync controller.
When you use the media catalog, the operator panel, the printer drivers and other appli-
cations all display the same list of predefined media. The operator panel and the printer
driver automatically retrieve and display the latest version of the media catalog.
What are temporary media
You can also use many other media that are not included in the 'Media catalog'. These
media become temporary media. You can look up the currently used temporary media
in the 'Media' section of the 'System' view. Furthermore, you can assign the temporary
media to a paper tray.
The temporary media remain available on the system until:
No more waiting jobs need this media type
No more scheduled jobs need this media type
No more printed jobs need this media type
This media type is no longer available in the paper trays.
Chapter 6 - Print jobs 147
Introduction to the media handling
When you plan to use these media more often, you can add these temporary media to
the 'Media catalog'.

Chapter 6 - Print jobs154
Change the number of sets
Check the first set
Introduction
If you have a large print job and you want to check whether the job is printed correctly,
it is advised to check the first set before printing all other sets. When a job is sent to the
printer, the submitter can indicate in the job submission application that the first set
must be checked. However, the workflow profile that is selected on the operator panel
determines how the printer handles these requests.
Depending on the selected workflow profile, the 'Check first set' setting can have the
following values:
'On'
'Off'
'As in job'
When you use the 'Check first set' function, the printed set is subtracted from the indi-
cated total number of sets for a job. For example, when you need 10 sets, the printer will
print the first set and then stop. When you continue the job, the 9 remaining sets are
printed. This is different from printing a proof.
Methods to check the first set
You can use 1 of the following methods to indicate that you want to check the first set.
Use a workflow profile where 'Check first set' is enabled. Then the printer stops after
the first set.
Enable the function 'Check first set' in the 'Properties' window for a specific job only.
However, you can only change the 'Check first set' setting there when a workflow
profile is selected where the 'Check first set' setting is 'As in job'.
How to enable the checking of the first set
1. Touch 'Jobs' -> 'Waiting jobs'.
2. Touch the job of which you want to check the first set.
#
NOTE
You cannot change this setting for the active print job .
3. Touch 'Properties' - or touch the job 2x to open the 'Properties' window.
4. Touch the 'Number of sets' button.
5. Touch 'Check first set' when the button states 'Off'.

Change the use of separator sheets
Introduction
Separator sheets are empty sheets that are automatically inserted before each new set or
job to separate two sets or jobs. In the Settings Editor you can define the media that must
be used as separator sheets. The use of separator sheets can be enabled via the automated
workflows in the Settings Editor. However, you can change this setting trough the oper-
ator panel.
How to change the use of separator sheets
1. Touch 'Jobs' -> 'Waiting jobs'.
2. Touch the job of which you want to change the settings.
#
NOTE
You can only change the settings of the active print job after you stopped the
printer (press the 'Stop' button two times).
3. Press 'Properties'.
4. Touch the 'Separator sheets' button to toggle between 'On' and 'Off'.

Stack the prints with an offset
Introduction
The 'Offset stacking' function creates a visible distinction between sets or jobs in an
output location. The active workflow profile or the active automated workflow determines
the default type of offset stacking. The table below describes the possible types of offset
stacking. Furthermore, the table describes when you can change the defined type of offset
stacking in the 'Properties' window.
Types of offset stacking#
Possible changes in the 'Properties' windowDefault type of offset

No changes possible.'Jobs'
You can indicate the number of sets (N sets) after which
an offset will be applied, for example 5.
Then 5 sets will be delivered in a straight stack. The next
5 sets will also be delivered in a straight stack, but with a
shift compared to the previous stack.
N must be a value between 1 and 65536 (default = 1).
'Sets (always)'
NOTE
When 'Sets (always)' is possible, the 'Properties' window displays a special button at
the upper right-hand side which is otherwise not visible.
You can set the 'Offset stacking' function to:
'On' - each set will be shifted compared to the previous
set, or
'Off' - all sets are delivered in 1 straight stack.

Combine jobs
Introduction
The bundle function allows you to combine 2 or more jobs into 1 new job. For example,
this can be convenient when the participants of a meeting need several documents in a
specific order. Often, the required documents are sent from several workplaces to the
printer in advance. Normally, this means that you must print the documents first and
sort or staple them later. By using the bundle function you can determine the order of
the documents before printing and print all documents in the correct order in only 1
print job.
Important information about the bundle function
You can only bundle print jobs that are currently in the list of 'Waiting jobs'.
You can change a number of settings for the bundled job via the 'Properties' window.
By default, the number of sets for a bundled job is 1. So before printing, you must
first indicate the required number of sets (see...).
When you stop a job after a set, the printing stops after 1 copy of the complete bundle.
The jobs in a bundle are accounted separately under the account ID of the original
jobs.
All the jobs in the bundle must have the same output location. Otherwise, the operator
panel displays a warning message. To continue, you must first split the bundled job,
then change the individual job settings and finally bundle the jobs again.
Main actions on the bundle function
The table below describes the main actions you can carry out with regard to the bundle
function.
Main bundle functions#
DescriptionMain actions
When you touch 'Bundle' after selecting 2 or more jobs, a

Introduction
If you want to create space for staples or punch holes, for example, you can use the 'Align'
function. However, when the 'Align' function is not precise enough, you can use the
'Margin shift' and 'Image shift' functions. These functions allow you to shift the image
more precisely. The preview in the right-hand pane of the operator panel displays the
consequences of your changes. If you shift the margin too much, you may loose part of
the image.
The 'Shift' function has 2 options.
'Margin shift' allows you to increase or decrease the margin to create more binding
space, for example. With 'Margin shift', you can shift an image relative to the binding
edge.
'Image shift' has basically the same function. However, 'Image shift' also allows you
to move the image vertically. This gives you more freedom in moving the image exactly
to the desired position.

General information
Introduction to the copy function
Introduction
The copy function enables you to copy paper originals. You can define the settings of the
copy jobs manually or by using templates. Templates contain predefined settings for re-
curring types of copy jobs.
The copy function contains a number of factory default templates, for example for
copying mixed-size originals or combining several sets of originals. Furthermore, you can
define customized templates. The factory default templates are directly available when
you access the copy function. When you select one of these templates, the system sets the
typical settings for the selected type of copy job automatically. Next you can define all
other settings for the originals and the output.
The illustration and the table below show the factory default templates you can use to
start a copy job.

Feed originals to the ADF (optional)
Introduction
You can use the ADF to feed a stack of originals at once, face up. Feeding originals in a
portrait position is referred to as long edge feed (LEF/horizontal). Feeding originals in a
landscape position is referred to as short edge feed (SEF/vertical).
#
NOTE
If the top edge of the original is not aligned with the back edge of the slide guide,
your original may not be scanned correctly, depending on the copy mode that you
have set.
Originals of the A4, B5 and LTR sizes can be placed either vertically or horizon-
tally. However, the scanning speed for horizontally placed originals is somewhat
slower than vertically placed originals.
Horizontally placed A4 and B5 originals are referred to as A4R and B5R.
Horizontally placed LTR originals are referred to as LTRR
A3, B4, 11" x 17" and LGL originals must be placed horizontally. A5 and STMT
must be placed vertically.
You can place the following originals into the ADF:
Weight
- One-sided scanning: 50 to 216 g/m² / 13 to 57 lb Bond
- Two-sided scanning: 50 to 216 g/m² / 13 to 57 lb Bond
(A3, B4, A4R, B5R: 50 to 200 g/m² / 13 lb Bond to 54 lb Bond)
(11" x 17", LGL, LTRR: 50 to 200 g/m2 / 13 to 53 lb Bond)

Tray Capacity: up to 100 sheets (80 g/m² / 22 lb Bond)
Chapter 7 - Copy jobs 193
Feed originals to the ADF (optional)
#
IMPORTANT
Thin originals may become creased, if used in a high temperature or high humid-
ity environment.
Do not place the following types of originals into the feeder:
- Originals with tears or large binding holes
- Severely curled originals or originals with sharp folds
- Clipped or stapled originals
- Carbon backed paper or other originals which may not feed smoothly
- Transparencies and other highly transparent originals
If the same original is fed through the feeder repeatedly, the original may fold or
become creased, and make feeding impossible. Limit repeated feeding to a maxi-
mum of 30 times (this number varies, depending on the type and quality of the
original).
If the feeder rollers are dirty from scanning originals written in pencil, perform
the feeder cleaning procedure.
‘Clean the automatic document feeder rollers’ on page 347
Always smooth out any folds in your originals before placing them into the feeder.

postponed copying. To use this function, you must send a copy job to the list of 'Waiting
jobs'.
When to do
You must only change the destination to 'Waiting jobs' when the default destination of
copy jobs is 'Scheduled jobs'. The default destination of copy jobs is defined in the
workflow profiles.
How to use postponed copying
1. Put the originals face up and in readable form into the automatic document feeder.
2. Touch 'Jobs' -> 'Copy/Scan' -> 'Copy job'.
3. Define the settings for your copy job.
4. Touch 'Destination' to select 'Waiting jobs'.
5. If required, touch 'Job name' to rename the job. This helps you to recognize the job more
easily.
6. Touch 'Start' .
The job is sent to the selected destination. There you can select and print the job later.

Description of the scan job settings
Introduction
To scan a document, you must first select a scan profile. A scan profile contains default
job settings. After you select a scan profile, the job window opens. The job window allows
you to change a number of default settings for the original and the resulting file. To in-
crease the productivity, the system automatically links the 'Size'settings for the 'Origi-
nal'and the 'File'. However, you can always manually overrule this automated setting.
The automated setting has the prefix 'Auto'. The changes that you make only apply to
the current job.
This section describes the parts and settings of the job window.

Combine subsets into one file
Introduction
You can use the scan function of the machine to carry out all kinds of scan jobs. You can
carry out scan-to-file or scan-to-email jobs, for example. When the document contains
non-standard size media or when you want to combine various documents, you can create
a combined scan job. All the different originals are then combined in 1 file. This is com-
parable to combining several documents in a copy job. The following situations can occur,
for example.
You want to scan a document that consists of several parts - called subsets - that differ
from each other and require individual settings
You want to combine different documents into one file
Different subsets are subsets that have a mix of 1-sided and 2-sided pages, or require dif-
ferent exposure settings, for example. When you scan these types of documents, you must
define the settings for each subset individually.
This section describes the following:
Combine subsets into one file.
Furthermore, this sections describes the actions you can carry out from the preview
pane.
Add a subset

Load the media into the paper tray
Introduction
This section describes how to load the media into a paper tray.
When you load the media via the 'Load' button in the 'Schedule', the media is automat-
ically assigned to the correct tray.
When you load and assign the media via the 'Assign' button in the 'Trays' view, you must
assign the loaded media to the corresponding paper tray manually.
#
CAUTION
The lifter inside the paper trays rises and descends automatically. When loading
paper, be careful not to get your fingers caught, as this may result in personal
injury.
#
IMPORTANT
Do not lift up the lifter inside the paper trays while the main power is ON, as this
may result in a malfunction or damage to the machine. If you need to lift up the lifter,
for example, if you drop objects, turn OFF the main power with the paper trays open.
See ‘Turn off the printer’ on page 99.

Chapter 9 - Paper, toner, and staples 233
Load the media into the paper tray
#
IMPORTANT
Never place paper or any other items in the empty part of the deck next to the
paper stack. Doing so may cause paper jams.
A paper blower is attached inside of the paper tray. Do not insert paper clips or
other foreign objects into the blower port.
A screen prompting you to load paper also appears if the selected paper tray is not
fully inserted into the machine. Make sure that the paper tray is properly in place.
You can load nonstandard paper if both of the sides are between 182 mm and
487.7 mm in length, and between 182 mm and 330.2 mm in width. You cannot
load nonstandard paper if either one of the sides is shorter than 182 mm and
longer than 487.7 mm in length, or longer than 330.2 mm in width.
You can load nonstandard paper if both of the sides are between 7 1/8" and 19
13/64" in length, and between 7 1/8" and 13" in width. You cannot load nonstan-
dard paper if either one of the sides is shorter than 7 1/8" and longer than 19
13/64" in length, or longer than 13" in width
Do not load the following types of paper into the paper trays. Doing so may cause
a paper jam.
- Severely curled or wrinkled paper
- Thin straw paper
- Heavy paper (more than 325 g/m2 / 86 lb Bond)
- Thin paper (less than 60 g/m2 / 16 lb Bond)
- Paper which has been printed on using a thermal transfer printer (Do not print
on the reverse side of this paper either.)
Fan the stack of paper well before loading it, and align the edges of the paper stack
on a flat surface.
#
NOTE
When changing the paper to load into the paper tray from plain paper to coated paper,
you may wait a moment because temperature control of the warm air which fans a
paper is required.
When to do
The 'Schedule' displays a red bar next to a required media. The red bar indicates that
a scheduled job now requires a media that is not available in the paper trays.
The 'Schedule' displays an orange bar next to a required media. The orange bar indi-
cates that a scheduled job requires media which is either not available in the paper
trays or which is available, but not in sufficient quantity to finish the job.
Chapter 9 - Paper, toner, and staples234
Load the media into the paper tray
The current job requires more of the same media than is currently loaded in the paper
trays. You can add more of the required media into another paper tray.
You already want to load and assign media that are required for the next job (work
ahead).
Load media into the paper tray
1. Press the button on the paper tray in which you want to load the paper.

Introduction
When using special types of paper, such as coated paper, the paper size may be slightly
different from standard paper sizes, and this may cause problems. Adjusting the width
between the size change plates can solve the following problems due to the paper size.
If the paper size is larger than a standard paper size:
Paper jams may occur if the space between the size change plates and the paper is too
narrow. Make the space between the size change plates and the paper wider.
If the paper size is smaller than a standard paper size:
The entire printed area may be shifted vertically to the top or bottom, or may be
slanted if the space between the size change plates and the paper is too wide. In this
case, make the space between the size change plates and the paper narrower.

#
IMPORTANT
Note the following points when using the special feeder:
- Paper Quantity: one to approximately 100 sheets (80 g/m2 / 22 lb Bond, stack
approximately 11 mm / 3/8" high)
- Paper Sizes: 330.2 mm x 482.6 mm, 320 mm x 450 mm (SRA3), 304.8 mm x
457.2 mm, A3, B4, A4, A4R, B5, B5R, A5R, and Irregular Size (139.7 mm x 182
mm to 330.2 mm x 487.7 mm)
- Paper Sizes: 13" x 19", 12" x 18", 11" x 17", LGL, LTR, STMT, LTRR, EXEC,
EXECR, STMTR and Irregular Size (5 31/64" x 7 1/8" to 13" x 19 13/64")
- Paper Weight: 64 to 256 g/m2 / 18 lb Bond to 68 lb Bond
- Paper which has been rolled or curled must be straightened out prior to use, to
allow the paper to feed smoothly through the special feeder (allowable curl amount:
less than 10 mm / 3/8" for normal paper, less than 5 mm 1/5" for heavy paper).
There are some types of paper stock which may meet the above specifications, but
cannot be fed into the special feeder.
Do not load different size/type paper at the same time.
Feed coated paper one sheet at a time. Loading several sheets together may cause
paper jams.
Depending on the type of heavy paper you want to load, if you load multiple
sheets of heavy paper into the special feeder, a paper jam may occur. In this case,
load only one sheet of heavy paper at a time.
If you are making two-sided prints, the printed paper may crease depending on
the moisture absorption condition of the paper, and if you copy the two pages as
two one-sided documents.
When printing on special types of paper, such as heavy paper or transparencies,
be sure to correctly set the paper type, especially if you are using heavy paper. If
the type of paper is not set correctly, it could adversely affect the quality of the
image. Moreover, the fixing unit may become dirty and require a service repair,
or the paper could jam.

cause the toner to ignite, resulting in burns or a fire.
#
CAUTION
Take care not to allow the toner to come into contact with your hands or
clothing, as this will dirty your hands or clothing. If they become dirty, wash
them immediately with cold water. Washing with warm water will set the
toner and make it impossible to remove the toner stains.
Keep toner and other consumables out of the reach of small children. If these
items are ingested, consult a physician immediately.
If toner gets onto your hands or clothing, wash it off immediately with cold
water. Do not use warm water as this may set the toner permanently, and you
may not be able to remove the toner stains.

Work with the workflow profiles
Introduction
The machine is used in different printing environments. Each environment requires
other settings to optimize the workflow or to meet your personal workflow preferences.
The machine contains a number of default workflow profiles to help you optimize your
workflow. The default workflow profiles are combinations of frequently used settings for
print jobs ('Receive', 'Print' and 'Output'). However, the workflow profiles cannot cover
all the possible workflows you may need. Therefore, you can also define the settings indi-
vidually (custom workflow).
This section makes recommendations about when to use which workflow profile. Further-
more, this section describes the settings and the effects of the settings.
#
NOTE
The 'Workflow profile' button in the 'Setup' section of the 'System' view displays
the name of the selected workflow profile. When you customized the settings of a
workflow profile, the button displays the text 'Custom'.
The use of the default workflow profiles
The following table makes recommendations about when to use which default workflow
profile.
When to use which workflow#
When to useProfile
You need a productive workflow but you still want to have
sufficient control over the jobs.
'Standard'
You want to start the jobs one by one. Each time a job has been
printed, the machine goes on hold. Always touch 'Resume' in
the dashboard to start the next job.
'Job by job'
You want to check the quality and layout of each first set of a
job before the remaining sets will be printed.
'Check and print'
The jobs are sent to the machine in a random order. You can
manually define the most productive order in which the machine
will print the jobs.
'Manual planning'
You want to continue printing while you are absent, for example
after working hours. Then the machine will print the scheduled
jobs, provided that all the required media, supplies and output
locations are available.

Automated workflows (access through
the Settings Editor)
Introduction to automated workflows
Definition
The Settings Editor enables you to set up separate automated workflows. Automated
workflows are print queues that you can program to perform a range of operations. Auto-
mated workflows are mostly used for legacy applications where jobs are printed automat-
ically and certain settings must be set automatically. Every automated workflow represents
a different virtual printer with its own specific attributes. The table below describes the
attributes you can define.
The selection of automated workflows is handled when the job is sent over LPR via the
name of the automated workflow of the job ticket. Once the job is sent to a specified
automated workflow on the printer, you cannot move the job to another workflow. The
operator panel does not display the various automated workflows. However, jobs can get
a label that you can use as a selection criterion for further processing and production.
The use of automated workflows has for example the following advantages.
The print workflow is automated even more, which improves the productivity.
The programming of individual jobs is eliminated, which optimizes the job throughput.
You can more easily distinguish, prioritize and produce jobs in different automated
workflows with different properties using less operator involvement.
You can easily assign legacy applications without job tickets to specific job profiles.
#
NOTE
You can define whether or not the settings of a job ticket overrule the settings of an
automated workflow in the Settings Editor.
Attributes
#
NOTE
It is not compulsory to define all the settings. When you put a check mark in front
of a setting, that setting and its values become enabled.

Hotfolders
Introduction to hotfolders
Introduction
Technically, a hotfolder is a mapped network drive on a workstation that is linked to a
shared folder on the PRISMAsync controller.
For an operator, a hotfolder is a folder on a workstation where printable files can be
dropped for printing.
Hotfolders are primarily aimed at recurring PDF workflows. In these workflows identical
PDFs, or other printable files, with identical settings are printed on a regular basis. Hot-
folders should not be used in combination with print job tickets.
The job settings for hotfolders
The settings of a hotfolder can be defined by:
a hotfolder default ticket in the hotfolder itself, or
the automated workflow to which the hotfolder is linked.
It is advisable to use the hotfolder functionality in combination with the hotfolder default
ticket.
However, if you want to use the settings of the automated workflow where the hotfolder
is linked to, it is advised not to place a hotfolder default ticket in the hotfolder, to prevent
mixing up settings. Furthermore, you must make sure that the 'Overrule the job ticket'
setting in that automated workflow is enabled (tick the checkbox).
Before you can use a hotfolder
To be able to use the hotfolder function, the following steps must be carried out first:
In the Settings Editor, the system administrator must activate the hotfolder function.
In the Settings Editor, the system administrator must create a hotfolder and link the
hotfolder to an automated workflow.
On a workstation, the key operator must create a shared network drive that is linked
to the hotfolder.
On the desktop of that workstation, the key operator can create a shortcut to the
hotfolder, if desired.

Create a hotfolder default ticket ('default_ticket.jdf')
Introduction
Hotfolders are primarily aimed at recurring PDF workflows. In these workflows identical
PDFs, or other printable files, with identical settings are printed on a regular basis. A
hotfolder default ticket (' default_ticket.jdf') in the hotfolder determines the settings for
the print jobs.
#
NOTE
If you want to use the hotfolder default ticket, make sure that the 'Overrule the
job ticket' setting of the automated workflow in which the hotfolder was created,
is disabled (no tick in the checkbox). Otherwise, the settings of the automated
workflow overrule the settings of the hotfolder default ticket.
This procedure is an example of the procedure in Microsoft Windows XP. For
other operating systems, the procedure can vary.
How to create a hotfolder default ticket ('default_ticket.jdf')
1. Click 'Start' - 'Settings' - 'Printers and Faxes'.

Introduction to printer calibration
Introduction
Due to external environmental circumstances, like temperature and humidity, consumables
and print quality change over time. These changes effect the color quality of the printed
documents. Although the printer performs automatic adjustments on a regular basis, you
are advised to calibrate the printer configuration regularly.
#
IMPORTANT
To assure optimal print quality, you must perform and complete all main steps in
the described order. The calibration procedure will guide you through these steps
automatically.

Calibrate the controller - '3. Media family calibration'
Introduction
The 'Media family' is a group of media that uses the same output profile. The controller
provides by default the media families coated and uncoated. An expert can create a new
media family for a specific group of media. A media family refers to 1 color profile per
halftone. The following halftones are available.
'Normal'
'Fine'
'Error diffusion'
#
NOTE
Make sure you perform a media family calibration for the halftones 'Normal' and
'Fine'.
Media family calibration for the halftone 'Error diffusion' is required when 'Error
diffusion' is used in copy jobs and job submission tools like the printer driver and
PRISMAprepare.
When to do
You are advised to run the 'Media family calibration' procedure in the following situations.
