Printer Drivers

See your printed Software Installation Guide for information on installing printer drivers.

You can also go to http://my.okidata.com to view and/or download a copy of the Software Installation Guide or for the latest information on drivers for your printer.

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.

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.

If neither driver seems to cover all your needs, you should install 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.
