Definition

The process of arranging multiple print jobs or images on a single sheet or roll to minimize media waste.

In-Depth Explanation

Nesting is particularly important for large-format printing where media costs are significant. DesignJet printers offer basic nesting capabilities through their built-in software, but advanced nesting with rotation and optimization typically requires third-party RIP software. Effective nesting can reduce media waste by 20-40%, significantly lowering per-print costs.
