For Windows 7 and Windows Vista, the XML Paper Specification (XPS) Page description language provides the most efficient method for displaying, processing, and printing documents. As both a PDL and a document format, XPS requires compatible printer hardware and software written for the Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) architecture. PCL and KPDL are not compatible with an XPS environment. Therefore, an XPS driver supports a single PDL setting. The XPS driver can be installed from the Product Library CD. In the Installation Method menu, click Custom Mode, and on the Custom Installation screen, select KX XPS DRIVER.

To view a print to file XPS document, download and install the Microsoft XPS Viewer.

Compatibility Settings

Compatibility Settings lets you specify media source values, disable reverse order printing for face-up output, override the application's Collate setting, and combine the Source and Media type lists in the Basic tab.

In a client/server environment, this feature is unavailable to a client logged in as a restricted user.

Media Source Enumeration

Media source enumeration supports compatibility for media source values unique to the printer driver, such as those for cassettes or feeders. Your newly installed printer driver maintains identical media source support with the driver it replaces, whether for this driver or one from another manufacturer. If media source macros exist for the older driver, then the alignment of media source values maintains support without the need to change the macros.

Setting Media Sources

Use the Driver Info utility (\Utility\Driver Info\DrvInfo.exe) to compare the source values for all installed drivers.

If the values for a given media source differ between printer drivers, you can reassign an enumerated value to create a match between the drivers.
