Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

  • How many rolls can the media carousel hold and does it select them automatically?
    The system holds 2 full-sized media rolls up to 42 in. wide simultaneously. It leverages automated roll-switching, meaning when a print job targets a different paper size or grade, the plotter feeds and cuts the active media and swaps to the other roll automatically.
  • What types of document format layouts are natively supported?
    The plotter's embedded memory natively decodes and structures engineering and graphics configurations including HP-GL/2, HP RTL, TIFF, JPEG, and CALS G4 directly from your software platform.
  • What connectivity interfaces are included on this specific model?
    The base Q1271A platform features an embedded HP Jetdirect Fast Ethernet network card alongside 2 high-speed IEEE 1394 FireWire interfaces. Wireless Wi-Fi configurations would require separate localized bridging routers.
