Drying time
With some printing materials and environmental conditions the ink needs some time to dry before the
printing material is unloaded. The following settings are available.
● Optimal: the printer automatically determines the appropriate drying time, based on the printing
material you have selected and the current temperature and humidity. If any drying time is required,
a “drying time to go” countdown will be displayed on the front panel.
● Extended: the default drying time is extended. This can be used if you find that the default drying
time is not enough to dry the ink sufficiently in your environment.
● Reduced: the default drying time is reduced. This can be used if you are keen to get prints as fast
as possible, and you find that the reduced drying time causes no significant problem in your
environment.
● None: no drying time is provided. This can be used, for example, if you are manually removing the
prints as fast as the printer is producing them.
To change the drying time, see Change the drying time on page 41 .
Using paper with the stacker [4520]
NOTE: This topic applies to the HP Designjet 4520 Printer series only.
The stacker can handle cut sheets of paper between 420 mm (16.5 in, A3 portrait) and 1189 mm (46.8
in, A0 portrait) in length. Shorter prints will be enlarged to the minimum length with extra white space;
longer prints risk falling off the stacker.
