Printing5-20

PrintingPrints the selected clear image file. For details on clear printing with the imagePRESS C1+, see the manuals for the imagePRESS C1+.

IMPORTANT

• Printing cannot be performed unless Canon iPR Server Q2 V2.0 (US) or Canon iPR Server T1 V2.0 US printer driver is installed in the computer to use Clear Image Editor on. • Printing cannot be performed unless a preset file has been imported. For details on importing a preset file, see "Importing Preset Files", on p. 2-7.

NOTE

A Canon iPR series printer driver can be used for CMYK printing using [Print Only Original Data].

Setting the Printing Mode The following types of printing modes exists.

[1-Pass Printing] * A mode for printing CMYK original data and clear data at the same time. With Canon iPR Server Q2 V2.0 (US), the original data and clear data are printed. With Canon iPR Server T1 V2.0 US, the original data and the clear data registered in the imagePRESS C1+ in advance are printed.

[Print Only Original Data]** A mode for performing CMYK printing as pre-printing to print clear data with post-printing. Clear data is not printed.

[Print Only Clear Data]* A mode for printing clear data with post-printing or creating documents with only clear data. CMYK printing is not performed. With Canon iPR Server Q2 V2.0 (US), the clear data is printed. With Canon iPR Server T1 V2.0 US, the clear data registered in the imagePRESS C1+ in advance is printed.

[Register Only Clear Data]* A mode for registering clear data in the imagePRESS C1+ as a clear template for performing clear data printing from the device screen of the imagePRESS C1+. To print clear data using Canon iPR Server T1 V2.0 US, the clear data must be registered in advance with this mode. For details, see "Using [1-Pass Printing]/[Print Only Clear Data] with Canon iPR Server T1 V2.0 US", on p. 5-22.

*: Can only be selected when a Canon iPR Server Q2 V2.0 (US) or Canon iPR Server T1 V2.0 US printer is selected in [Printer Name].

**: Only printer drivers with "Canon iPR" included in the driver name can be used.
