PhaserLink software printer control and information access. PhaserLinkª software provides a breakthrough in printer control and information access. Rather than use vendor-proprietary, printer-speciÞc, and platform-speciÞc management utilities, PhaserLink software provides these functions using HTTP (HyperText Transfer Protocol, the basis for World Wide Web browsers). PhaserLink software lets you use a standard web browser to view printer status, control printer conÞguration, and link to online documentation via the World Wide Web.
Note To use PhaserLink software, the printer must be connected to a network running TCP/IP. Refer to the PhaserShare Network Cards and Software System Administrator Manual for complete details.
Easy to use and maintain. Designed for the graphic arts environment, the printer is fast and easy to use. When the printer is low on ink, you just drop in Tektronix ColorStix¨ solid-ink sticks and continue printing. Each ColorStix solid-ink stick has a unique color and shape to simplify loading. The printer produces consistently accurate and vibrant prints without the need for user calibration.
To order ColorStix solid-ink sticks, transparencies, paper, or other supplies, refer to the supplies information sheet that is shipped with the printer and contact your local dealer or, in the United States and Canada, call Tektronix at 1-800-835-6100.
