Applications and Drivers
To make sure that your printer prints exactly what you
were expecting—in terms of size, position, orientation,
color and quality—use the correct driver for the
combination of your application software and your
printer, and make sure that it is configured correctly.
Some printer functions behave differently when the
printer receives a PostScript file as opposed to files
formatted in other printer languages (HP-GL/2 or RTL).
Throughout this manual, references to “PostScript files”
mean files sent to the printer using the HP Designjet
PostScript driver supplied with the printer and installed
by you on your Macintosh or Windows PC.
If AutoCAD drivers are available for the specific
AutoCAD release you are using, it is strongly
recommended that you install them to print from
AutoCAD.
