D. Printing a

Color Page

Now that youÕve set up the printer, loaded media, and installed the printer driver, youÕre ready to print a color page! Follow these steps to print your first image:

1.Go to your favorite Windows application program.

2.After youÕve created an image, press the Print button from the applicationÕs Print screen.

3.PrimeraProÕs RIP (raster image processing) begins. Depending upon the complexity of the image and the processing speed of your computer, it will take from just a few seconds to several minutes for printing to begin. Generally, photos and complicated graphics (like many of those from programs like Corel Draw!¨, Micrografx¨ Designerª and other high quality imaging programs) take longer than spreadsheet data, graphs and charts.

4.A page of paper will feed in, print the first color (yellow), and then proceed to print the remaining colors (Magenta, Cyan, and Black, if using

a four color ribbon). Wait until all the panels have printed and the sheet is fully ejected before trying to pull it out of the printer.

5.If everything looks good and youÕve printed your first page of color output, congratulations! YouÕve successfully completed set-up and initial testing.
