Ink Usage
Allows you to monitor the estimated amount of
ink left in each of the five Ink Tanks. You can
monitor ink consumption and schedule Tank
changes (saving down-time during a print run.)
NOTE: Ink Usage only works when you start
with a new Ink Tank and leave it in the
Printer.
Ink Estimation Mode – Checking this box lets
you predetermine how much ink a given job may
use prior to printing. This can be useful for
determining per piece costs. The job is sent to the
Printer and loads, but does not print. Once the job
is loaded, the chart shows the amount of ink (by
color) that the job will use.
NOTE: The estimating process will take as
long as the job would take to print (i.e., if the job would take 1 hour to print, the estimate will take 1
hour to display.)
Network Configuration
Permits you to view, enter or change settings to connect the Printer to your network.
Network Connection Set Up:
1. The Printer is still connected to the computer via the
USB cable.
To connect the Printer to a network, open the
Toolbox. On the User Interface page, click
“Network Config.”
