Media Sizes


To ensure fluidity through the whole calibration and printing workflow, the media list should be kept up to date with all media widths which are relevant. Depending on the printer model, the media list will be populated already with commonly used or printer installed sizes. 

Accessing the Media List for a Printer 

  1. In the RIP, right click on the Printer and choose 'Edit Media Sizes'.
