HP (Hewlett-Packard) 98SI Printer User Manual


 
3-44 Media Wizard
Media Wizard The Media Wizard software feature stores a set of printing
parameters by media type, enabling you to instantly optimize
the printer whenever you change media. The Media Wizard
includes standard sets of parameters for popular media types,
and allows you to define new settings for media types you
define.
The Media Wizard can store a different set of settings for each of
the print modes (Billboard, Production, High), or use the same
settings for all three modes.
The Media Wizard is accessible during the media load process
(see Loading Roll-Fed Media on page 3-16) and from the Front
Page screen (as follows).
Tip
To use the Media Wizard most efficiently, start by
using one of the standard media types. If you are not
using a standard media type, select the standard
media type that most closely matches the media you
are using. Then only if necessary, create a new media
type using the standard type you selected as a start-
ing point, and adjust it as needed.
1. From the Front Page screen, press the Media Wizard key.
The Media Wizard menu appears. It contains the following
options:
Media Settings — displays the settings currently stored
in the Media Wizard
Create Media Type — creates a new media type using
settings you specify
Delete Media Type — deletes a user-created media type
View Media Types — allows you to view each of the
media types stored in the Media Wizard
Set Sort Method — allows you to sort the list of media
names Alphabetically, by Most Used, Recently Used,
Sheet-fed First, Roll-fed First, or None (preserves the cur-
rent order).
2. When you select Media Settings, the control panel displays
the current settings.
To change the current settings, press the Media Settings
key.
