4 Printing Basics
4-10 Phaser 560 Color Laser Printer
Using the Adobe PostScript driver for Windows 3.1
To select printing options, follow these steps:
1. From the Control Panel , double-click the Printers icon.
2. In the Printers dialog box, choose the Tektronix Phaser 560 printer, then click Setup . A dialog box
appears with the printer’s name across the top.
3. Click the following tabs to see printing options; refer to your Windows documentation for more
information on tabs and options.
Paper For media options (sizes, types, and source)
Features For printer-specific options such as color correction.
■ Set the Timeout settings . Refer to “Setting the timeouts” on page 4-11 for instructions.
PostScript For PostScript-related options
■
In the Performance Options field, select the Use PostScript Level 2 Features option.
■
Under PostScript Timeout values, leave Job Timeout set to 0 . Leave the WaitTimeout set to the
default, 240 (4 minutes). Setting it higher ensures that you will not lose a multi-page job due to a
timeout after the Transmission Retry alert message is displayed.
Job Control For print job-related options
Note The PostScript header contains important PostScript information that must accompany each print job;
it is not a banner page printed with each job. If an option is not selected, an error message is displayed
on your computer screen and your job does not print.
■ Click one of the following in the PostScript header field:
■ Download Each Job
This option downloads PostScript header information with each print job.
■
Already Downloaded
This saves the PostScript header information in the printer. After selecting this button, select
the
Download button. This option makes print files a little smaller and faster than the first
option, but you need to click the Download button every time the printer is turned off or reset.
■ For better performance, select the Binary Mode option.
