HP Designjet Z3200 PostScript Photo Printer series - Manual (Page 56)

Create a print job
In order to print something, you must send it to the printer. This constitutes a print job, which is entered
into the printer's print queue. There are two main ways of sending a print job to the printer:
● To print directly from a program, use the program's Print command as usual. When you select your
HP Designjet printer, the printer driver is invoked to send your job to the printer.
● If you have a file that is already in a supported graphical format, you can use the Embedded Web
Server to send it directly to the printer without going through a printer driver (see below).
Using the Embedded Web Server to print files
From the HP Printer Utility or the Embedded Web Server, select Submit Job in the Job Center group.
You will see the window below.
Press the Add files button to choose the files from your computer that you want to print. The files must
be in one of the following formats:
● PDF
● PostScript
● TIFF
● JPEG
● CALS/G4
NOTE: When you print to a file, the file should be in one of the above formats, but its name may have
an extension such as .plt or .prn.
If the files are not in one of these formats, they will not be printed successfully.
If the jobs have been generated with the appropriate settings (such as page size, rotation, resizing and
number of copies), you can just press the Print button and they will be sent to the printer.
If you need to specify printing settings, go to the Job settings section and select the options you need.
Each option has explanatory text on the right, so that you can understand the behavior of each setting.
Remember that, if you leave the setting as Default, the setting saved in the job will be used. If the job
contains no setting, the setting in the printer will be used.
