The Marks & Print Label option includes the following settings:
RegistrationThe precise alignment of film or plates for printing. Register marks, usually placed outside the trim area, assist the printer and finisher in achieving accurate registration in multiple color jobs. marks print a crosshair mark at each corner of an image. These marks help ensure that the image is straight on each side when trimming.
TileSection of a print image. Images can be tiled when they are too large for the media, or to fit mounting and display requirements. Dotted Overlap marks are used when tiling images with an overlap. These marks show where the overlap begins and ends to help you combine tiles easily. When piecing the tiles together, the Tile Dotted Overlap Mark of one tile overlays the corresponding mark on the adjacent tile.
To use Tile Dotted Overlap marks, you must first enable Registration marks. You can then select which sides of the image should have the Tile Dotted Overlap marks.
Crop marks are right-angle marks that are placed on the edges of each corner of the image. Because the same area is used for Registration marks, Crop marks do not have any effect if you are already using Registration marks.
Crop Outline prints a solid line around the border of the entire image. When using Crop Outline, the Crop marks have no effect because the solid line is printed in the same area as the Crop marks.
Zero-line Tile marks print a black crosshair with a white inner portion in the middle of the tile overlap area. These marks show the center point of each tile, allowing you to accurately place the tiles.
The Print Label prints job information at the end of the printed image.
To use the Print label, enable the Print Label checkbox, and click Setup. You can then select the type of information you want to include in your Print Label by scanning through and marking the appropriate options.
Select the Use Large Text checkbox to print the label using a 22.5 pt. font instead of the default 7.5 pt.
