These mechanisms include the Default Media selections for the imager (here Is ¢ Detault Media for grayscale prints, and one for color prinis, which can be set through ‘he imager's contol panel menus); he relevant DICOM attroutes (Medium Type ard Film Size ID) ang, the relevant Job Settings carameters (MediaType and WediSize). For DICOM print jobs, these mechanisms are all combined using an algoritym that provides maximum flexibility and contol over which mediun is used for agiven job ‘The algerithne works as follows: 1. The media type and size are initalized to those of the Default Media, based on whether the current DICOM job is grayecale or color.
