Print a 'Print on objects' application

Introduction

The 'Print on objects' recipe allows you to print on pre-cut objects.

In the example below, the PDF contains the following information.

A layer with the colour image to print on the objects.
A layer with the registration information used to position the objects correctly for printing.

When you see a warning or a waiting message in the 'Layers' section, open the [Layers] tab and define the correct settings.

The 'Print on objects' recipe contains 2 layers, printed on the back side of the media.

Layer number	[Layer name]	[Layer source]	[Print mode]	Remark
[Back] 1	PDF with layers - Color	PDF with layers	Fine Art	The image is printed in CMYK.
[Back] 2	PDF with layers - Shape detect white	PDF with layers	Quality-Density W only	The complete shape of the image is printed in white.

Open the [Cut] tab.
For this application we use pre-cut pieces, so the checkbox [Skip cut submission] is ticked.
Open the [Media layout] tab and define the correct settings.
In the example below the number of copies to print is "4".

IMPORTANT
When you change the settings in this tab click on [Confirm settings] to confirm your entries.
Open the [Registration] tab and define the correct settings.
By default, the cut layer, created in step 5, is the registration layer.
Open the [Print] tab and define the correct settings.
When you want to print more than one panel you can use the option [Symmetric dual origin]. This option allows you to position the objects on one side of the table, while the objects on the other are side of the table are printed.
Click on the [Print] button.
