Printing from DOS Applications

While your printer is primarily a Windows printer, you can also print from a DOS software program using the Remote Control Panel utility provided in the ML-1250 CD-ROM.

About Remote Control Panel for DOS

DOS users have access to many printer features through specific DOS printer drivers; however, many software manufactures do not develop printer drivers for their software programs. The Samsung ML-1250 printer provides the DOS software control panel for improved printer control when DOS printer drivers are not available or when certain print settings are not available through DOS software programs.

Notes:

ML-1250 printer’s Remote Control Panel for DOS can be used when the printer is connected via the parallel interface.

The ML-1250 printer’s Remote Control Panel is not a printer driver. It should be used to set print settings that are not available through DOS software programs. Printer drivers are supplied by the manufacturers of your DOS software programs. If your DOS software program does not include a printer driver for your Samsung printer, contact the manufacturer of the software program or use one of the alternate printer drivers.
