4.9 WORKING WITH OCÉ’S SMARTCHIP MANAGEMENT

SYSTEM.

4.9.1 Introduction

The smartchip management system allows the user to control the ink volumes of the smartchip cards either on the cassettes or centrally in the printer.

Caution

Don’t pull any smartchip cards from ink cassettes to use them in the reader. The ink value on the smartchip cards of the cassettes will be transferred to the smartchip management system when using the printer mode.

4.9.2 Explaining the smartchip management system

Firmware incorporating the smartchip management system, makes it possible to work in the cassette mode (original mode) or the printer mode (ink volume from the smartchip cards is centrally managed by the

printer)

A. Cassette mode

The ink volume transfer is happening WHILE printing. The more you print, the more ink volume is being SIMULTANOUSLY transferred. The image below shows the ink volume transfer flow WHILE printing.

Ink value transfer in cassette mode WHILE printing

Page 69

Chapter 4: Preparing for a job

AP-75036 - Revision 1.3 – 20/03/06 69 User’s Guide CS9000 series

B. Printer mode

Transferring ink volume and printing is performed in 2 stages. See the step – action table below :

Stage Description User’s Action Remark

1 Transferring ink volume to the chip manager

system. See image Stage 1 below.

Ink volume transfer,

Transferring the ink volume from the smartchip cards to the smartchip management system on next

page.

none

2 Printing with the total ink volume on the chip

manager system. See image Stage 2 below.

Printing the print data.

This ink volume transfer is AUTOMATICALY performed during printing

Stage 1 : Ink volume transfer BEFORE printing Stage 2 : Ink volume transfer WHILE printing

More info about Stage 2 :

In the printer mode, the smartchip management system reads out the ink volume on the smartchip card in the smartcard reader. If no valid card or no ink volume is found, the ink manager system will scan all cassette slots. It is then possible to transfer the ink value rest on the smartchips. In that case, the ink manager system will add all the ink volumes together to a TOTAL INK VOLUME, independent from the ink colour.

See 4.9.3 Inserting a smartchip card in the card reader of the printer on next page for more details about

the procedure.

5.3 USING MEDIA

This section describes details on available media for the printer.

5.3.1 Media type

The type and quality of the media affect the results of drawing enormously. Refer to the description below and use the appropriate media for your purpose. The following are the recommended media for the printer. Select the appropriate media for your purpose.

Notes

• For more information about the recommended media, contact your local Océ representative.

• Problems that occur due to use of media other than those recommended are not guaranteed.

Notes

• When using recommended media, the setting values for the printing quality is set for each media type.

• When printing on media other than those specified, information regarding proper settings for the media

type and settings for the product should be found on the instructions for the media. If not contact the supplier of the media.

5.3.2 Cautions on handling media

When you handle media, please pay attention to the following.

Notes

• Use recommended media in an appropriate environment. Following are the appropriate temperature

and humidity ranges for printing.

Temperature Humidity Recommended working environment 23°C 40% to 70% Rate of change Within 2°C per hour Within 5% per hour

• Do not use creased, damaged, torn, curled, or wrapped media.

• The size of the recommended sheets can change at a fixed ratio according to the temperature changes

of the working environment. Before using sheet media, place the sheet in the working environment for at least 30 minutes, to have it match to the temperature of the working area.

• Printing before the media could accommodate to the printing environment may cause media jams due

to slippage or creases. This also adversely affects the quality of printing.

• Media has a printable side and a non-printable side. If you print on a not printable side, blurring or

slight touching may occur.

• Do not touch the printable side of media. Moisture or oil from hands affects the printing quality.

• Do not leave the printer for a long time with media loaded. The media may curl resulting in

misalignment, media jams, or decreased printing quality. In particular, avoid this in winter, dry seasons, or during final printing.

• Do not lose the box or wrapping bag for storing media.

5.3.3 Precaution on storing media

When storing media, pay attention to the following.

Notes

• Do not store media in high temperature, high humidity, or direct sunlight.

• Store sheet media in the original bag after unpacking.

• Unused roll media must be removed from the scroller, rewound tightly, and stored in the original

wrapping bag and the box.

• Do not wet media.
