Operation This chapter provides a broad outline of how to operate your printer in the PCL emulation from either a Windows or a Macintosh environment. PRINTER SETTINGS IN WINDOWS Note The illustrations in this guide relate to Windows XP PCL emulation - other operating system windows may appear slightly different but the principles are the same. The operator panel controlled menus provide access to many options. The Windows printer driver also contains settings for many of these items. Where items in the printer driver are the same as those in the operator panel, and you print documents from Windows, the settings in the Windows printer driver will override those settings in the operator panel. PRINTING PREFERENCES IN WINDOWS APPLICATIONS When you choose to print your document from a Windows application program a Print dialog box appears. This dialog usually specifies the name of the printer on which you will print your document. Next to the printer name is a Properties button. When you click Properties a new window opens which contains a short list of the printer settings available in the driver, which you can choose for this document. The settings available from within your application are only those which you may want to change for specific applications or documents. Settings you change here will usually only last for as long as the particular application program is running. The tabs available are the Setup Tab, the Job Options Tab and the Image Tab. SETUP TAB 1. Paper size should be the same as the page size of your document (unless you wish to scale the printout to fit another size), and should also be the same as the size of paper you will feed into the printer.
