Create a new template

Introduction

Next to the factory default template, you can create new templates for your printer models.

NOTE

The templates are printer specific. The templates you create for a printer type are accessible only when you select the specific printer.

About this task

The creation of a template is useful when you print images with common features or when you want to apply the same print settings to more of your jobs or documents.

For example, you can create a folding template in which you activate the [Automatic detection of the legend] and you set the fold settings. PRISMAproduce Tech will analyze all submitted documents and the finishing device will fold the document according to the template settings, with the legend on top of the folded packet.
