Printing from an application
A custom page size job will print with Paper Source set to Auto Select when printed from
Adobe PageMaker 6.52. Print options that otherwise could not be selected for a custom
page size job can be selected. Therefore, when you print using a custom page size, be sure
not to select the following print options:
• Transparency in Media Type
• Duplex
• Slip Sheet
• Sort or Group in Sorter Mode
When you specify Printer’s marks or Registration marks in the following applications, the
marks may be partially cut off on the output image, even if you select the following options
in the respective applications.
• Reduce image to match paper in QuarkXPress
• Reduce to fit Adobe PageMaker
If this occurs, adjust the reduction ratio.
Publishing only the Direct connection
Publishing only the Direct connection is not recommended.
Multiple users
If different users print to the Direct connection in rapid succession, the jobs may not print
correctly.
Black Overprint
When you print a job that uses the font Times New Roman MT Extra Bold with Font Style
set to Italic, specifying any of the Black Overprint settings has no effect if the font size is
more than 72 points.
Spot Color Matching
When Spot Color Matching is set to On, banding (visible steps between shades in a color
gradient) or bands of color that are missing altogether may result in the printed image.
Also, if you print separations, pages may be printed in color instead of black and white.
These undesirable effects depend on the application. As a workaround, set Spot Color
Matching to Off.
Copies
The Copies setting specified for a job spooled to the Command WorkStation, Fiery
WebSpooler, or Fiery Spooler may not be displayed correctly in the Command
WorkStation Properties dialog box or the Override Print Settings dialog box of Fiery
WebSpooler or Fiery Spooler. If you specify the setting once again and reprint the job, the
job will print without using the setting.
Paper Size
When you print a job from the Windows NT 4.0 printer driver, the settings 11
x 17 and
Tabloid both appear in the Paper Size pop-up menu in the Paper Setup tab of the
ColorPASS Properties dialog box. These are different terms for the same size. However, it is
recommended to choose 11 x 17.
