PostScript Menu

PostScript Menu options establish the default configuration for the printer when printing PostScript jobs. PostScript may be used by software applications to send information and instructions to the printer.

PostScript is available as an option for the LN17 printer. See Appendix A: Ordering Printer Options.

Note

Windows Users:

The Windows PostScript driver for the LN17 printer allows the user to either download the PostScript header with every job Note or download it only once. If the printer is used in a network or

other shared environment where both PCL emulation and PostScript jobs are printed, the header will be deleted when the printer switches from PostScript to PCL emulation.

Banner sheets printed from Novell networks cause the printer to switch between PostScript and PCL emulation. If banner sheets are printed, ensure that the Language Sensing option is set to ON and the default System Language (for each enabled port) is set to PCL Emulation.

To avoid the loss of the PostScript header:

select Download Each Job in the PostScript driver, or

set State Saving to On in the PostScript Menu.

You must download the header at least once for each power on cycle. If several different PostScript applications are used, the “Download Each Job” option will guarantee that the correct header is always available.
