Creating a Cue
Mark
A cue mark is a mark that is printed on the web and is used to start
printing on simplex jobs, synchronize printing on duplex jobs, and
synchronize sheeting. A cue mark printed on the front side of the web
serves as a reference point for the start of a new document. A cue mark
printed on the back side of the web can be used to trigger sheeting.
Cue marks are created and placed on the web template using the
following steps:
1. Select EditJob → Add Mark → Cue to open the Add Cue Mark
dialog.
Note:
Note:
2. Specify the width of the cue mark in the Width text box.
3. Specify the height of the cue mark in the Height text box.
4. Enter the horizontal position of the cue mark, as measured from the
upper-left corner (0,0) of the web template, in the Left text box.
5. Enter the vertical position of the cue mark in the Top text box.
6. Verify that By Page is selected in the Sequencing drop-down list. (By
Page is the only option currently supported.)
7. In the Colors list box, check the color in which the cue mark is being
printed. (In CMYK mode, cue marks only print in black.)
8. To place a duplicate of the cue mark on the back side of a duplex job,
check Two sides are mirrored.
Although cue marks can be modified independently, they should be
positioned in the same location on the front and back sides of the web
template to ensure that the document is printed and sheeted correctly.
9. To use an EPS image as the cue mark, click Browse to locate the
directory that contains the EPS file.
If no EPS file is specified for the cue mark, the default image (a solid,
rectangular box) is used.
