Printer Operations
Document ID: OMM-00174 Rev. D Pro 30f Operations Guide 46
The EFI Pro 30f printer has many different resolutions and options for creating bco files for printing at different speeds
and output qualities. With experience the selection of these options will become clearer. When selecting a work flow for
file preparation in the Fiery XF software, be aware that different options result in different printer output speeds and can
have different output qualities as well.
The charts below contain several work flows that EFI has found useful in day to day operation of the EFI Pro 30f printers.
NOTE: Different printer modes have different intended viewing distances for the printed output. In general, the
faster output speeds are intended to be used in creating prints that are viewed from larger distances.
