Winding options

Introduction

For the Océ Colorado 1640 there are several winding options depending on the type of media you are using.

Overview

In a media profile a media category is used that corresponds with the loaded media type. Each media category uses default media settings. One of the media settings is [Winding tension] that controls the winding tension that best fits the media type.

For more information, see Change the media settings.
