When you select a document in a document list, an interactive preview of the selected document is displayed. It shows how the system will actually print the document.
The preview gives you all kinds of information. The preview shows:
A thumbnail view of the document, in colour or black and white.
The clipped area, if any.
The position of the image on the media.
The part of the image that will be placed on top of the folded packet, when folding is activated.
The strips, if any additional leading or trailing strip.
An indication of the media output direction.
The cut location.
A representation of multiple pages when the document contains several pages and it has not been split.
The size of the printed image.
The length and width of the media.
The quick rotation tool to rotate the image easily (only when you move your mouse over the preview).
NOTE
When you select a multi-page document (loaded as a single file with different page sizes) and the [Media size] is set to [Any loaded size] or [Any size], the preview displays only the first page estimate. The media and orientation are selected by the system after submission.
When you move your mouse over the preview you will see the icon of the quick rotation tool appear. Click on it to rotate the document. You can also use the keyboard shortcut [CTRL+SHIFT++]. You will see the values change in the [Rotation] tile.
The print preview displays warnings in the following cases:
The image is going to be clipped.
The media type or media size is not available.
The legend will not be displayed on top of the folded packet or the legend location is not found.
You can still submit the job to the printer.
During the generation of the preview, the progress of the generation is displayed.
The preview is blank when the document is in error or when the preview is not available.
When a long plot has to be displayed, the preview is cut in the middle and only the beginning and end of the document is shown.
