Setting Up the Printer
3.Select from the following options:
•High Speed Copies speeds up printing of multiple copies of the same document using hard disk space as a cache. If you have multiple hard drives, you can select a high speed copy folder for storing copies.
•Show Progress Meter lets you control whether or not the Progress Meter is displayed when you send a print job.
•EPSON Printer Port (Windows 95, 98, or Me parallel connection only) lets you optimize the transfer rate of your printer port for EPSON printers instead of using the Windows default printer port. You may see one of these messages beneath the EPSON Printer Port option:
High speed (DMA) transfer enabled tells you that you’re already using fast DMA transfer mode.
For higher data transfer rates, use DMA transfer lets you know that you can speed up printing by enabling DMA transfers on your system. See your electronic Reference Guide for instructions on using DMA transfers, if your computer supports them. For more information, see your computer documentation or contact your computer manufacturer’s technical support. If you see no message, you cannot enable DMA transfers.
•Always spool RAW datatype (Windows 2000, XP, and NT only) lets you spool documents using the RAW format instead of the EMF (metafile) format. Because the RAW format requires fewer resources, printing is faster and you can avoid certain problems, such as insufficient memory or disk space.
