The self service wide format printer is an affordable way to

produce your own A2/A1/A0 or custom banner sized prints.

SELF SERVICE COSTINGS

You will require sufficient printing credit to cover the cost of the

complete print job. This credit should be in place before any

printing takes place. Large format costings are as follows;

A0•£4.20 A1•£2.10 A2•£1.05

• Large format print charges are based on a cost of £4.20 per

square metre of print.

• It is the same cost for printing in black and white or colour.

• Price is based on the assumption that your page is on automatic

rotation in the print properties option – this is the default.

• Wide format ‘banner’ type presentations can be printed out with

charges being based on a linear length of £4.20 per square metre

of print.

Follow this procedure to print a large format poster/banner;

SETTING UP THE PRINTER

1. Log on to a PC in the library or the PC adjacent to the printer.

The PC adjacent to the printer is a more powerful PC capable of

dealing with larger files and has several design related software

packages already installed. This is the best option if you are

struggling with the printing process.

2. Firstly you will need to add the Colorwave 700 large format

printer to your printer list. You do this by selecting the following;

Start – All apps – Connect to Network Printers

From the printer name list select:

LIB-GroundFloor-LargeFormat

Wait for a moment for the driver to install. You should now be

connected to the Colorwave 700 large format printer.

PRINTING

We recommend printing either from JPEG or PDF. Do not attempt

to print from any Microsoft Office based applications.

PRINTING A JPEG

1Open your JPEG with Windows Photo Viewer.

2Select Print from the Print drop down.

3Select the wide format printer from the printer drop down list -

LIB-GroundFloor-LargeFormat.

4Select the size of print you require from the Paper size: drop down.

5Ensure that the Full page photo is selected.

BE AWARE - Untick the Fit picture to frame box on anything over

PRINTING A PDF

PDF’s are opened with Adobe Acrobat. There are two versions

of this package available on the UCLan system.You may encounter

problems printing from the Acrobat Reader DC that is available

as default on the UCLan system. As a result we highly recommend

installing Adobe Acrobat Pro from the Application catalogue. To

do this select the following;

Start - All Apps - Application Catalogue then select Acrobat

Pro DC - 2018 and INSTALL.

1Save your document as a PDF from the software/application

responsible for the document creation. NOTE - Only open the

PDF after installing the printer.

2Right click your PDF file and select Open with Adobe Acrobat

DC - NOT Adobe Acrobat Reader DC. Once your PDF is open

select File and then Print.

3Select the printer Properties box – wait a few moments for the

printer properties settings to load.

12 If your artwork is not the size of the print you require make sure

the Fit option in Page Size & Handling is highlighted. This will

scale your artwork to the size you selected in the print properties.

The Actual size option will print the exact same size of your

created document.

13 If required change the print quantity in the copies box.

14 Select Print to send your job to the Oce Colorwave printer. Visit

the printer in the room adjacent to UCLan Print to collect your

prints.

Please note:

• You do not need to use the touch panel on the printer.

• The Printer touch panel will state it is ‘locked’- this is normal.

• Wait until the printer fully releases the print before removal.

15 Cut off any excess white areas using the guillotine. Please

guillotine 1sheet at a time only. You will potentially damage the

guillotine and your artwork if you exceed this amount.

PLEASE NOTE

• The printer is loaded with 1 type of paper stock - 90gsm Matt. If

you desire a different stock please visit UCLan Print. Do not try

to load any paper into the printer.

• UCLan printers require sufficient printing credit to cover

the cost of the complete print job. This credit needs to be on

your account before you send a print the the wide format printer.

• Please note prints from this printer cannot be hot laminated. If

you require a laminated poster visit UCLan Print.

• For both JPEG and PDF files keep the DPI as low as possible.150

DPI is recommended - anything larger than 200 DPI may cause

issues.

• File size is a major issue with printing over a network. PDF files

should have layers ‘flattened’ before sending a file to print.

• Avoid sending multiple page PDFs for printing as this may cause

issues.

• Do not attempt to print from any Microsoft Office applications.

This will create problems.

• If your document has an extra white page after your desired

artwork the printer will print a whole white page - you will be

charged for this. Always check your page count.

• If you encounter a problem do not repeat sending files to the

printer. Ask a staff member for assistance.

• Refunds will only be given for printer/network errors. Not user

errors.

• If you are having problems try using the PC adjacent to the

printer
