16 Using the CD Color Printer III with Windows
The Current Job tab tells you the name and size of the file printing,
the progress of the overall print job, as well as the total number of
copies left to print. It also provides buttons which allow you to
pause or cancel the print job at any time during the printing process.
The Settings tab tells you the port and printer to which you are
printing and allows you to configure the timeout settings. In most
instances, these settings will rarely need to be changed. This tab also
provides two other options called Save last job for reprint and
Direct to Port Mode.
When the Save last job for reprint option is selected, the 32-Bit Print
Spooler will automatically save the last print job you sent to the
printer and allow you to instantly reprint the job without the delay
of having to reprocess it. The print job will be saved in the spooler
until another print job is sent and saved over it. If you do not wish
to save the last print job for reprint, deselect this option. To print a
saved job, simply select the Print button from the spooler’s Current
Job tab.
HINT: If you want to send the last job without having to rasterize
it again, simply open the 32-bit Spooler and click print.
The Direct to Port Mode option is selected by default. In most
instances, this option allows the spooler to send data to the printer at
its optimum speed. If, however, you experience problems when
printing with this option selected, simply deselect it and try your
print job again.
The Job Queue tab appears only when a print job is being sent to
the printer. This tab tells you the name and status of each job in the
queue and shows you the order in which the jobs will print if you
have sent multiple jobs to the printer. A control button is also
provided which allows you to delete every job listed in the queue.
To delete the job currently being printed, simply select the Cancel
Print button under the Current Job tab.
D. SETTING UP THE PRINTER DRIVER
Once the printer driver has been successfully installed, you will
need to set the driver up with the appropriate print options.
Refer to the following steps to change or verify your printer
driver options:
1. Click the Start button, point to Settings, and select Printers.
Then, click on the CD Color Printer III icon with the right
mouse button and select Properties if using Windows 95/98
or Document Defaults if using Windows NT, or Printing
Preferences if using Windows 2000.
