Printer Features

The following are the major features of your printer.

PostScript Level 1 and Level 2 Compatibility

The QMS 4525 printer provides PostScript Level 1 and Level 2 page description capabilities via QMS-developed emulations that are com- patible with Adobe's PostScript Level 1 and Level 2 languages while providing additional capabilities. PostScript controls the appearance of text, geometric shapes, and images at the printer. It can rotate, scale, clip, and orient graphic objects on all or part of a page. You can even print color PostScript files in black, white, and shades of gray to proof color files quickly and economically.

The PostScript Level 2 emulation supports the new capabilities of the “second generation” of Adobe's PostScript software. Level 2 consoli- dates extensions made to the PostScript language over the last few years and provides new features and functionality that expand the language's capabilities and improve overall performance. New Post- Script level 2 features include improved memory and resource man- agement, built-in data compression/decompression filters to speed up transmission times and save disk space, optimized graphics and text operators, and patterns and forms support, including pattern and form caching.

For additional information about the PostScript Level 2 emulation, refer to the QMS Crown Technical Reference Manual. For information about using specific Level 2 features, refer to your Level 2 application documentation.

13 Resident PostScript Typefaces

Your printer comes with 13 typeface families that contain 43 different PostScript fonts licensed from ITC and Linotype. All 13 typeface fami- lies have multilingual character sets and reside in memory. The fonts in all of these typeface families can be scaled, rotated, pattern filled, halftoned, shaded, shadowed, and cropped, depending on your appli- cation.
