C.Using PrimeraProÕs Preferences Printer Driver

Printer Preferences (sys:Prefs/Printer)

Use the Prefs/Printer program to select ÒPrimeraProÓ as the current printer and set the other gadgets as described below. Other PrimeraPro files may be visible on the list but should not be selected.

Printer Type:	PrimeraPro
Printer Port:	Parallel
Paper Type:	Single
Paper Format:	U.S. Letter = A (8.5Ó x 11Ó).
	U.S. Legal = A-Long (A-size
	with tabs).
	Narrow Tractor = A4
	(210mm x 297mm).
	Wide Tractor = A4-Long
	(A4-size with tabs).
	Other options are reserved
	and should not be used!
	Note: Use PPCI interface for
	paper size selection.

The other gadget settings do not affect PrimeraPro graphics printing and should be left as is for text printing.

For more information about the printable area for each paper size refer to page 24 of this manual. This will help you determine which paper size to use for your printing needs.

Graphics Printer Preferences (sys:Prefs/PrinterGfx)

Use the Prefs/PrinterGfx program to set the graphics printing parameters. The settings below are most common when printing to the PrimeraPro, although they are not required to be set as shown. Different applications may use or allow changes to these settings at print time. If a setting such as Density (or Resolution for some applications) is not seen within the applicationÕs print box, you may assume that it is using the Prefs setting. Prefs settings must be saved prior to entering the applicationÕs print box.
