PRINT JOBS Y The drawing is mirrored vertically XY drawing is mirrored about both axes simultaneously equates to a 180 rotation You usually use these settings if the drawing has been scanned and saved with a mirror inversion This is especially important if a transparency has been scanned with mirror inversion to in crease the contrast e Rotate Here you can set whether the drawing is to be rotated or not during plotting Rotations of 0 90 180 and 270 are possible When set to Auto RW 470 PLOTCLIENT WEB rotates auto matically if this results in less waste paper e Cut Mode The selections available are Synchro and Format If you choose Synchro the plotter cuts the drawing immediately after the last data has been printed This results in optimum paper or medium use because it produces the smallest amount of waste On the other hand if you want the printout to always be cutted to a standard format irrespective of how much space remains unused activate Format The plotter then always cuts to the next largest format This can be a disadvantage if e g a drawing is only around 0 5 cm larger than a ISO 5 page is printed on a ISO A4 page and thus almost 50 of the sheet remains unused The advantage is that some folders require exact formats and you can match them using the Format setting Pens Set the pen settings for the drawing These can be the default settings or indiv
