CHANGING THE PRINTER'S NAME
446
1See Installing the utility files to locate the printer’s utility files.
2View the
PRNTNAME.PS
file in a text editor.
3Edit the file to substitute a different printer name for
(My Printer Name) in the /PrinterName line.
NOTE
Some text editors add a carriage return or line feed after the last Control-D character
in a file you are editing. If your computer is connected to the printer through the
parallel port, or the optional serial port, the extra characters will start a new job and
the printer times out after a few minutes. To avoid this, copy the
CTRLD.PS
file to the
printer after you send the
PRNTNAME.PS
file; see CTRLD.PS for more information on
the
CTRLD.PS
file.
4Use one of the following methods to send the file to the printer:
PC users: Use the DOS COPY command to send the file to the printer.
(Windows 3.1 users can also use the Copy command in the File
Manager.)
Workstation users: Send the file to the printer as you would any
PostScript file.
