HP Designjet Z6100 Printing Guide [PS Driver] - How to print a banner [Macromedia FreeHand MX - Windows]

1. First recommendations:
• In order to get a correct display, it’s also essential you have the monitor calibrated, refer
to the
Profile my monitor document.
• Refer to the
Media type functionality & features and choose the most appropriate media.
• Ensure that the Paper Type setting on the front panel corresponds to the paper that you
intend to use. It is essential that the paper is correctly color calibrated for the printer; refer
to the
Calibrate my printer document.
• If the paper that you are using is not listed, we strongly recommend creating a new
Custom Paper Type, or if you cannot find a paper type that resembles yours closely
enough. You can add a custom paper automatically by using the HP Color Center; refer
to the
Add and profile a new paper type document.
