Using the Windows NT driver

Printer settings in Windows NT

Printing a document or image to a film recorder from an application is just like printing to any ordinary printer. This process will vary slightly from application to application, but generally the Print command in the application’s File menu will do the trick.

The printer driver allows changing a number of print settings. Most of these settings don’t need to be changed in many cases, but you will always need to select the film type you want to use. The ‘Print” dialog generally has a button that allows you to access the printer settings dialog.

Please see “Printer Settings” on page 35 for details on individual settings.
