Using the Adobe PostScript driver for Windows 3.1

To select printing options, follow these steps:

1.From the Control Panel, double-click Printers.

2.In the Printers dialog box, select the Tektronix Phaser 350 printer, then click Setup. A dialog box appears with the printer’s name across the top.

3.Click the following tabs to see printing options; refer to your Windows documentation for more information on tabs and options.

■Click the Paper tab to see media options, such as media sizes, media trays, and media types.

■Click the Features tab to see printer-specific options, such as color corrections.

■Set the Timeout settings.

Not Selected: Type a value of 0, or between 15 and 999, in this text box to change the number of seconds Windows waits before notifying you that a printer is off-line. The default is 15 seconds.

Transmission Retry: On large or multiple-page documents you may see an Alert message that the printer is no longer accepting data before the job is completely sent to the printer. When using a shared printer, you should set this option to a larger value, such as 900 seconds (15 minutes) to avoid these unnecessary timeouts. Type a value between 45 and 999 in this text box; the default setting is 45 seconds.

■Click the PostScript tab to see PostScript-related options.

■In the Performance Options field, select the Use PostScript Level 2 Features option.
