For UNIX environments, Tektronix offers the optional PhaserPrintª software. PhaserPrint software includes driver-selectable printer options, and provides fast, raster Þle and screen copy printing to Tektronix color printers. The printerÕs CD-ROM contains a demonstration copy of the PhaserPrint software, and an on-line instruction guide, in the UNIXDEMO directory. To purchase a licensed copy of PhaserPrint software, see page 8-9 for instructions.

Note Refer to the on-line manuals on the printerÕs CD-ROM for more information on printing from a workstation.

If you do not have a licensed copy of PhaserPrint software, you can use the PostScript utility Þles on the Phaser 380 printerÕs CD-ROM with UNIX and VMS workstations. These Þles let you set up your spooling system to select between media trays, print-quality modes, color correction modes, etc.

UNIX workstation users can access utility Þles in the following ways:

Copy the Þles from the Tektronix Phaser 380 printerÕs CD-ROM if your system includes a CD-ROM drive. Workstation-speciÞc Þles are located in the bin directory.

Copy the Þles from the printerÕs diskettes. Workstation Þles are available in both Macintosh and PC format.
