HP (Hewlett-Packard) 650c Printer User Manual


 
3-5Installation and Configuration
Real-time switching between plotting modes is not supported. If the user selects another
mode while plotting, the plotter waits until the current plot is finished and then switches to the
newly selected mode.
MEDIA CUTTING AND STACKING
Automatic and manual cutting of plots is available on the C2858/9A. In roll media opera-
tions, the user can choose between continuous plotting or cutting plots off the roll automati-
cally as they are completed.
Automatic cutting When roll media is loaded, whether or not queueing is
ON, the plotter automatically cuts plots and drops them
into the media bin. When queueing and nesting are ON,
the plotter cuts each nest. The automatic cutter can be
programmatically disabled. When cutting is disabled, the
plotter draws tick marks at the plot margins to indicate
the end of a plot or nest. The automatic cutter can be
enabled programmatically or by cycling power.
Manual cutting The front panel Form Feed/Cut button can be used to
feed the media out and cut it after a plot is completed.
Media stacking Unattended stacking of cut sheets is provided by the
adjustable media bin. The user must adjust the movable
shelf of the bin according to the length of the cut sheets.
Bin capacity is 20 sheets.
Manual cutter A manual cutter is provided with the plotter for hand-
cutting of media and is stored in the manual holder on
the back of the plotter.
