Epson EPL-7500 User Manual - Page 106

Controlling the Printer Desktop publishing programs Whether you're a serious desktop publisher or just starting out, you'll get professional results from your EPL-7500 if you choose a desktop publishing application program written specifically for PostScript printers. When you set up a desktop publishing application program, select either the EPL-7500, PostScript printer, or LaserWriter from the program's printer selection menu. Nearly all desktop publishing programs support the PostScript language. If, however, your program does not have a PostScript driver, contact your software dealer to see if an update is available. Note: To print complex pages, you may find that you need to increase the printer's 2 MB of RAM. See Appendix A for more about memory options. Integrated packages When you install an integrated package, you should select EPL-7500 or another PostScript printer from the printer selection menu. To get the most out of your printer, choose an integrated application program written for PostScript printers. Most integrated packages include a wide range of features such as: l Word processing • Spreadsheets l Graphics l Database capabilities If a PostScript printer is not available from the printer selection menu, you can still print with the non-graphics portion of your package. Simply follow the instructions in the section on setting up your application program earlier in this chapter. Application Software 5-5
