Configuration
The configurations of the printer, the driver, and/or the Software RIPs define how
ink is applied to each type of media. Use the information in the following table to
configure your printer and software for best color accuracy.
Media
Always make sure that you are using the appropriate media for your image and that
it is consistent with your software application. To ensure color accuracy and print-
quality performance of the printer, use only media types that have been certified for
your printer. Use of non-HP media or HP media not certified for the your printer
may significantly reduce the color and print quality of your images. For details of
HP media, see page 3-4, Supported Media Types and the Media Guide for the HP
DesignJet CP Printers supplied with the printer.
