See your printed Software Installation Guide for information on
installing printer drivers.
WHICH PRINTER DRIVER TO USE?
Your printer comes with Windows drivers for PCL and Adobe®
PostScript® (PS). You can install either of these, or both if you wish.
Which driver you choose depends on your application.
•If you use TrueType fonts and you do not print PostScript
(including “.eps” files) graphics, choose the PCL driver. This will
be more efficient and give good results.
•If you use PostScript fonts or you will be printing PostScript
graphics, choose the PostScript driver. In this situation
performance will be faster and graphics will be printed at their best
quality.
If neither driver seems to cover all your needs, you should insta ll both
drivers: select the same printer port (LPT1 or Network Port) for both
drivers during the installation.
Set the driver you plan to use most of the time to be your Windows
default driver. Most applications allow you to choose a different
printer from within the print dialog, so you can print using the
alternative driver whenever you need to.
NOTE
The line art graphics in this manual are PostScript. So if you
plan to print parts of this manual choose the PostScript
driver. Otherwise the line art graphics will only print at low
resolution.
