Media+Type+Paper+Paths

=Which Media Types can be used with which paper paths?=

Which black ink do they use?
All media types can be used with the regular "Manual" setting. Using this setting, the trailing border has a minimum size of 0.9 inches. Starting with Firmware Version 1.23 and Photoshop plugin 2.03 there is also a setting for "Manual (3 mm Margins)" for some Media Types. The paper paths are specified as the "Media Source" on the Page Setup tab of the operating system driver or the Photoshop plugin. Summary of likely photo paper settings:


 * Cassette
 * Matte Black Ink - Premium Matte Paper, Matte Photo Paper
 * Photo Black Ink - Photo Paper Plus, Photo Paper Plus Semi-Gloss, Special 1-5
 * Roll
 * Matte Black Ink - Premium Matte Paper, Fine Art (all choices), Canvas Matte 2
 * Photo Black Ink - Glossy Photo Paper, Semi-Glossy Photo Paper, HW Glossy Photo Paper, Heavyweight SemiGlos Photo Paper, HW Satin Photo Paper, Special 1-5

The table below shows a detailed list of which media types can be used with the Cassette, Roll Paper, or both, and whether Photo Black or Matte Black ink is used:


 * Special Note:** These Media Types were available after installing Version 2.50 of Media Configuration Tool and Updating Media Types. According to the imagePROGRAF Media Guide, Premium Matte Paper is the ONLY photo quality paper -supported- for use with the Cassette. The other various photo quality papers checked below for use with the Cassette are officially "Not Supported; setting suggested(use at your own risk", according to the Media Guide. The Media Guide for the 5000 seems to conflict with recommendations for the 5100 Paper Reference Guide. "use at your own risk" may have been an overly cautious commentary. Caveat Emptor.
