USER’S GUIDE
CHAPTER 1 –4
Remote Printer Console Program for DOS
The utility program, Remote Printer Console (RPC), is available on a
floppy disk supplied with your printer. When you operate your
computer in the DOS (Disk Operating System) environment, this
program allows you to easily change the default settings of the printer
such as fonts, page setup, emulations and so on.
This program also provides a status monitor program, which is a
Terminate-and-Stay Resident (TSR) program. It can monitor the printer
status while running in the background and report the current status or
errors on your computer screen.
Popular Printer Emulation Support
This printer supports three popular printer emulation modes, HP
LaserJet 5P, Epson FX-850, and IBM Proprinter XL. When you use
DOS application software or Windows version 3.0 or earlier, you can
use any of these emulations to operate the printer. This printer has an
optional BR-Script 2 ROM board which adds a PostScript Level 2
language emulation to your printer. The printer also supports auto-
emulation switching between HP, optional BR-Script 2 and Epson or
HP, optional BR-Script 2 and IBM. If you want to select the printer
emulation, you can do it using the Remote Printer Console Program.
Printer Status Monitor with Bi-directional Parallel Interface
The printer driver can monitor your printer’s status using bi-directional
parallel communications. A high quality bi-directional parallel printer
cable is recommended.
The printer status monitor program can show the current status of your
printer. When printing, the animated dialog box appears on your
computer screen to show the current printing process. If an error occurs,
a dialog box will appear to let you know what to correct. For example:
when your printer is out of paper, the dialog box will display “Paper
Empty” and instructions for the proper corrective action.
Enhanced Memory Management
The printer provides its own data compression technology in the
printer
hardware and the supplied printer driver software, which can
automatically compress graphic data and font data efficiently into the
printer’s memory. You can avoid memory errors and print most full
page 600 dpi graphic and text data, including larger fonts, with the
printer’s standard memory.
