Tips for optimum printing performance
■ Always leave the printer on. Whenever you turn off and restart
the printer, it performs a cleaning routine that consumes ink. To
ensure optimum printing performance and best ink economy,
leave the printer turned on overnight and during weekends.
When the printer sits idle, it automatically switches to a standby
mode that reduces energy consumption but keeps the printer
ready to use. Pressing a front panel button, opening a cover, or
sending a print job then ÒwakesÓ the printer.
■ Use Tektronix supplies. Use the Tektronix transparency tray and
transparency media (standard or premium) for reliable,
high-quality transparency printing. The transparency tray holds
up to 175 transparency sheets, saving you from frequent
reloadings and interrupted print jobs. And, with the optional
Lower Paper Tray Assembly, you can automatically switch
between paper and transparency printing from your computer.
■ Do not print on both sides of the media. Printing on both sides
of a sheet of paper or transparency Þlm causes ink to be offset onto
the printerÕs internal paper path, which will require you to clean
the printer.
■ Use the correct type, size, and weight of media. Use the
appropriate media tray and make the appropriate media selection
from the printer driver. Load the media correctly, and do not
overload the trays. The Tektronix transparency tray and
transparencies are recommended for transparency printing. Refer
to ÒAcceptable media sizes, types, and weightÓ on page 4-6 for
more information.
