Phaser 300X Color Printer

Using the Microsoft PostScript driver with Windows 95

To select printing options, follow these steps:

1.

In the Printers window, click the Phaser 300X printer icon with the
right mouse button, then select Properties from the menu.

2.

Click the following tabs to see printing options; refer to your
Windows 95 documentation for more information on tabs and
options.

Click the Details tab to see timeout and other options.

Set the Timeout settings.

Not Selected:

Type a value of 0, or between 15 and 999, in this

text box to change the number of seconds Windows waits
before notifying you that a printer is off-line. The default is
15

seconds.

Transmission Retry:

On large or multiple-page documents

you may see an Alert message that the printer is no longer
accepting data before the job is completely sent to the printer.
When using a shared printer, you should set this option to a
larger value, such as 900 seconds (15 minutes) to avoid these
unnecessary timeouts. Type a value between 45 and 999 in
this text box; the default setting is 45 seconds. (If you are
having timeout problems, refer to the on-line manual on the
printer’s CD-ROM for information on setting the printer’s
timeout.)

Click the Paper tab to see media options, such as media sizes and
types.

Click the Graphics tab to see graphics options.

Note

If you are using host color correction, you need to make selections
in the Graphics and Device Options tabs. Refer to the
Phaser 300X Drivers and Utilities Printing Reference

for

more information on host color correction.
