Konica Minolta KIP 7000 - Manual (Page 120)

Section 4 Windows Driver 4-6
This feature is very important in wide format printing from CAD applications and MS Excel.
This is a feature that is required in CAD applications where the image size may vary from
one image to the next such as: 36” x 60” for the first document then 24” x 80” for the next.
The Custom Size feature allows the users much simpler access for several capabilities:
1. Choose any paper size “on-the-fly” without adding new paper sizes to the operating
system (Printers and FaxesÆServer PropertiesÆForms).
2. Choose different and non-standard paper sizes for each and every document.
3. Choose very long paper sizes.
4. It is not necessary to exactly match the document length to the output length; the
users can intentionally choose a longer length for the media size. For example, if
the image is meant to fit on 36” wide media, but the user isn’t sure about the length
of the media required, the user can set a very long length (up to 200 feet) and the
“white” space (extra paper) at the end of the document will automatically be removed.
This prevents any waste of media without an image (KIP GL)
2.7 Resolution
Output resolution is automatically determined when installing the Windows driver.
2.8 Halftone Color Adjustment
The KIP driver can be adjusted to allow colors from within your application to have different
variance of shading. This provides the ability to increase or decrease the level of overall
contrast of the grey tones on final output. Adjust the level as required to satisfy your final
product requirements.
2.9 Management
The KIP 7000 has the ability to account for each print produced. This allows for
job/department costing. Three fields exist in the driver to allow the user to include this
information.
These fields are:
a) Requester
b) Job Number
c) Description
Unified Accounting – The Windows Driver points to a central location Ex. A KIP 7000 which
has a centralized list and rules for accounting. For information on how to set up unified
Accounting please see the Request or PrintNet sections.
NOTE
The KIP 7000 is a 600 x 600 DPI device.
