Unattended printing/overnight printing (T1500 series)
The printer is well suited to long, unattended print jobs, having multiple rolls plus robust and consistent
image quality.
Here are some recommendations to help you deal with a long queue of printing jobs.
●
Empty the stacker.
●
If feasible, use brand-new long rolls of paper.
●
If you want to print on partly-used rolls, you can check the paper type and the remaining length in the
Embedded Web Server or in the front panel, to confirm that you have enough paper to print all your
jobs.
NOTE: Information on the remaining length is available only if you told the printer the length of the
roll when you loaded it, or if the printer read the length of the roll from the barcode printed on it.
●
Load two rolls of paper suitable for your jobs. If the printer finishes one roll, it will automatically switch
to the other.
●
Check that you have paper wide enough to print all of your jobs. Any jobs that are too wide may be put
“on hold for paper” if the paper mismatch action is set to Put job on hold (see Paper mismatch action
on page 23).
●
Check the ink levels remaining in your ink cartridges.
●
When you have submitted your print jobs, you can use the Embedded Web Server from a remote
location to monitor their status.
●
Drying time should be set to Optimal.
