hi I'm Brett Howell product manager at onyx graphics in this video we'll be showing you
how to do some basic printing and some double sided printing using the HP Latex 360 printer
we'll also show you a little bit about using onyx quick sets which makes it easy to submit jobs for
printing let's get started now before we start opening files for printing first let me show you
how to create a new quick set in onyx quick sets are used to help automate your production workflow
I've opened up onyx ripp cube you can see here at the top that I have the HP Latex 360 printer
installed when using the HP Latex 300 printer x' onyx software automatically detects which
media is currently loaded on the printer see here I have generic paper as my current media
to create a new quick set I need to select the configure printer icon onyx needs to shut down
the printing so I select yes this brings up the configure printer window and my quick sets tab I
choose new this opens the quick-set window now I need a name for my new quick set let's call
it paper fast mode now I can either customize my media and mode settings or I can use the settings
for the media and page sizes currently loaded on the printer since I know I'm going to print on
the paper I have loaded I'll leave the settings alone I still need to choose a mode and I want
to print fast so I'll select the six pass mode and for this demonstration I'm going to leave
all of the other default settings in place so I'm ready to save my new quick set is now in my
list and I'm ready to use it for printing ok let's open up a file using our new quick set
I select open notice here in the upper corner is the drop-down for my kwikset's i select the
new paper fast mode then i select my file and I click open the file is opened into rip-queue
and is processed for printing once the processing is finished I select my printer and choose print
now that's it the file is sent to the printer and the HP Latex 360 does the rest so I've shown you
the basics of printing a file using a quick set now let's take a look at how we can use quick
sets to make double-sided prints for this demo we'll be printing the onyx quality evaluation
file on both sides of our media ok here I am in rip-queue again and I'm going to create another
quick set I'm going to name this one paper D as fast mode this time instead of using the media
info from the printer I'm going to customize my settings I select my media group my media name
and my mode but notice here where it says print options this is where I can apply my double-sided
settings here under double-sided printing I select side a now don't worry about selecting
side B right now in a minute I'll show you how onyx will automatically create a side B for us
I'm going to leave the defaults for reflection and rotate alone these default settings will give me a
regular back-to-back print and I click OK I'll leave the rest of my default settings in place
and my quick set is ready to go ok let's open up a file using our new double sided quick set I select
open choose my double sided quick set choose my file and click open the file is opened process
and I'm ready to start printing the progress bar at the printer shows us that the file is being
sent to the HP Latex 360 now watch what happens when we finish printing side a notice here that a
new file has been automatically created labeled B this file is automatically put on hold also
notice that the file is upside down in my preview this isn't a mistake it's exactly what I want my
side B preview to look like okay now let's take a look at what's happening at the printer once side
a is finished printing I'm going to cut off the print notice the print has a black line
at the end of the print this will be used to register the print when we print side B I need
to unload the media from the printer then I load my print with the side a facing up and
with my black line loaded first please make sure to follow all of HP's instructions for
loading media once I have the print loaded I can go back to my RIP queue and take my side B print
off hold then I select print now and the file is sent to the printer the HP Latex 360 takes
it from there once the printer is finished I now have a double-sided print ready to go those are
