33-12 Setting up the GA-1040 from TopAccess
Printer Setup
Number of Copies—Specify the default number of copies of a document to print.
Page Size—Specify the default page size for jobs.
Paper Source—Select the paper source for print jobs.
Finishing—Specify how to output multiple-page or multiple-copy jobs. For more information, see Appendix A in the Printing Guide.
Destination—Specify the destination for printed output.
Duplex—Duplexing allows printing on both sides of the paper. The Book setting prints the top of the image on side 1 on the same edge of the page as the top of the image on side 2. The Tablet setting prints the top of the image on side 1 on the opposite edge of the page as the top of the image on side 2.
Orientation—This option determines whether the text or image will be oriented along the short edge of the paper (portrait) or along the long edge of the paper (landscape).
Smoothing—This option automatically smooths jagged outlines on characters and graphics.
Hole Punch—This option defines where to place holes for 3-hole punched paper.
Emulation Mode—In PCL or PostScript mode, the GA-1040 is restricted to PCL or PostScript jobs, respectively. Jobs sent to the GA-1040 that do not match the mode (or personality) selected on the GA-1040 are not printed. In Auto mode, the GA-1040 switches to the appropriate page description language for each job. See PCL Options on page 3-12 and PostScript Options on page 3-13 for more information. Also see the Printing Guide.
PCL Setup
PCL (Printer Control Language) printer drivers are provided with the GA-1040 on the User Software CD. PCL Setup allows you to set defaults to control printer output. These defaults can be overridden by the user from within an application, but they determine how a job will be printed in the absence of other information.
NOTE: PCL printing is supported for Windows computers only. Mac OS computers must use the PostScript driver.
