The Demo page prints and the printer goes back on line. Which Printer Driver? Your printer comes with Windows drivers for PCL and PostScript(PS). You can install either driver or both, depending on your application. If you use TrueType fonts and you do not print PostScript (including ".eps" files) graphics, choose the PCL driver. This will be more efficient and give good results. If you use PostScript fonts or you will be printing PostScript graphics, choose the PostScript driver. Performance will be faster and graphics will be printed at their best quality. If your applications vary, you could choose to install both. Then select the one you plan to use most to be your Windows default driver. Choose the alternate driver from within the print dialog when you need to. If you install both drivers, simply select the same printer port (LPT1 or Network Port) during the installation.
