Using Commercial Software
Commercial software programs usually need to know what type of
printer you are using. You normally supply this information as part of
a setup or installation process. Either the manual for your program or
an on-screen menu should explain this process for you.
The program may list a number of printers from which you can
choose. Pick LQ-800 or LQ-1000, depending on which printer you
have.
