Apple 12/600PS manual PostScript

PostScript

Click the PostScript tab to display the PostScript tab dialog box, which controls color printing, the communication protocol, and PostScript Level 2 features.

The PostScript tab dialog box lets you set the following options:

mUse PostScript Level 2 features Tells the driver to use PostScript Level 2 features when printing documents. Use the Level 2 features to speed printing.

mSend Data in Binary Tells the driver to send data to the printer in a binary format. Sending data in binary format may improve the printer’s performance when printing images or documents containing many downloadable fonts. The Color LaserWriter 12/600 PS printer can always receive data in either ASCII or binary format.

mSend Full Color Data Tells the driver to print colors on a color printer. Usually it is best to select this option even when printing to a non-color printer. Colors print in finer shades of gray.

mMatch Colors Across Printers Tells the driver to save color-matching information with the data for use later when the document is saved to a file for printing on a different PostScript Level 2 printer.
