Plug-inAn accessory program that integrates with the printer driver to enhance or extend the driver's capabilities.

Poster Layout feature for printing a document in a larger size than the maximum supported by the printer so the cumulative sheets can be assembled as a poster. Use this feature to print a document in a large, eye-catching poster format, up to 25 times larger than the original document size.

PRESCRIBE An internal printer language that embeds commands into specified locations in a print job.

Print graphics as black This option prints all color graphics and text with black, rather than grayscale. This feature is intended for CAD applications.

Print text as black Prints all color text as black. It produces faster printing of color print jobs by reducing the amount of data sent to the printer. In black and white printing, it increases the detail for light-colored text printed. White text and image colors are unaffected.

Private print Job option that saves print jobs on the hard disk for printing until a four-digit access code is entered. Private print jobs are deleted when the printing system is reset or turned off.

Profile A set of user defined driver settings that are saved as a group. Once saved, you can select a profile by name and apply its settings to a print job without selecting each feature individually.

Prologue/Epilogue Advanced feature that allows you to insert a macro into specific locations in the print job. An advanced user may choose to use this feature to embed a PRESCRIBE command that will call a macro to overlay PRESCRIBE form data or a graphic object, such as a logo or a signature, at a specific point in the print job.

Proof and hold Job option that prints one copy of a print job so that you can proof it before printing the remaining copies. This feature is available when a hard disk is installed and selected in the Device Settings tab. After the proof copy is printed and checked, remaining copies can be printed from the printing system’s operation panel without sending the job again from the computer.

Quick copy Job option that prints all copies of a print job and stores the job temporarily on a hard disk for reprinting later. This feature is available when a hard disk is installed and selected in the Device Settings tab.

Quick Print tab The Quick Print tab improves usability by providing an easier way to set print options. You can choose basic settings or a predefined printer profile, rather than having to go to various tabs. Quick Print settings can be captured in a group called a profile. Profiles support common printing tasks, saving you from having to repeatedly select the same settings. The Administrator can set the view of the Quick Print tab through the Installation process, or Administrator Settings in Properties.

RAM disk A feature that lets you set up an area within the printing system memory as a virtual hard disk for faster printing. RAM disk is not an attached device, but an allocation of existing printing system memory. RAM disk is temporary. All data sent to RAM disk memory will be lost when the printing system is reset or turned off.
