Printer Setup

Configurations

This dropdown allows selection of the required Smart Printer Configuration (.spc) file.
This file contains the hardware characteristics of the printer and the Smart Media Definitions that are available.

The buttons to the right offer:

• Import
  Use this to configure SJCE for the target printer using the specified Smart Printer Configuration.
• Export 
  Use this to export a new Smart Printer Configuration file.
  All costs entered into SJCE are stored in the Smart Printer Configuration, which makes sharing printer configurations along with associated costs very easy.
• Delete
  Use this to remove the currently selected Smart Printer Configuration from the dropdown list.
  This action does not remove the original .spc file from the disk.

The remaining data shown on the page is for information only, and provides some data about the Smart Printer Configuration selected.

Click the Color Management button to reveal additional data relating to the color settings; these are informational only and cannot be changed.

Servicing

The dialog also allows setting servicing costs and a service interval.
