Reference Guide
Parameters which are monitored for Nest compatibility:
• Print quality;
• Number of passes;
• Print direction;
• Speed;
• Color mode;
• DPI;
• Dry time;
• Margins;
• Wipe on/off; and
• Media Save.
The following parameters will not affect nesting:
• Ink limiting;
• Replots;
• If Auto Rotation is enabled, then the nesting algorithm is free to rotate
the plot if it determines that doing so will save media. Plots are sequen-
tially fitted across the page from right to left; and
• The HP-GL/2 EC command can be used to control cutting. If any plot in
a nest has the cutter enabled, the plotter will cut after the nest.
To enable nesting
1 Press Setup Menu/HP-GL/2 menu/Nesting Menu/Nest Enable.
2 Choose Nest On or Off.
3 Press OK.
Nest wait time
Nesting Wait Time is the amount of time the printer waits for the next plot to fill the
current nest.
The printer will begin printing whenever the printer has been idle for the specified time
interval. The time is reset whenever a print job is received.
