Using features in the driver

Using features in the driver

When you print from a software application, many of the product features are available from the driver. To gain access to
Windows drivers, see

“To gain access to the Windows driver” on page 18

.

Note

Settings in the driver and software application generally override control panel settings. (Software application settings
generally override driver settings.)

Product collation

The product collation feature allows multiple original printing that provide you the following advantages:

z

reduced network traffic

z

faster return to application

z

all original documents

Saving product setup information

Drivers allow you to save the product settings you use most often as the default settings. For example, the driver might be set
to print on letter-size paper, portrait orientation, with automatic tray selection (from the first available tray).

Windows PCL 6 and PCL 5e drivers allow you to save product settings for multiple kinds of print jobs. For example, you might
want to create a quick set for envelopes, or for printing the first page of a document on letterhead.

New driver features

Look for Quick Sets, Scale to Fit (any page size to any page size), and Booklet Printing options in the Windows driver, or
see the driver help for more information.

Printing watermarks

A watermark is a notice, such as “Top Secret,” printed in the background of each page in a document. Check the driver for
available options, or see the driver online help for more information.

For Macintosh, you can select “Custom” and specify the text you choose, depending on your driver version.
