Chapter 5 Printing in Isis
You use the File→Print command to specify a hardcopy output device
and begin sending imagery to that device. Isis supports a range printers
and plotters that are not automatically supported by Windows. To Isis,
these are non-standard printers. Such a printer must be locally attached
to your Isis system in order to be able to print or plot to it from Isis.
Any printer that is directly supported by Windows can also be used in
Isis. In Isis, this is known as a standard printer and is labeled that way
in the Plotter Setup dialog box of Isis. Please note that because most of
these printers and Windows-based drivers are designed to work in a
page format only, they are not suitable for continuous printing.
5.1 Hardcopy Devices Supported by Isis
The Isis software directly supports the following hardcopy devices:
• Alden 9315CTP-999, version CB 1.70 PE 1.51 with 1024K
buffer
• EPC models 1086, 1086 Multiping, 8300, 9701, 980x/950x,
9502, 1086-MP and 9206 (the latter two models have network
interface capability)
• Raytheon TDU models 850, 1200, 2000
• Waverley 195, 200 (same as Dowty 195, Ultra 195 and Ultra
200), and 3640
The above devices do not require a special Windows software
driver.
Triton Elics tests these devices periodically. In all cases, communication
with the printer or plotter is performed over the computer’s parallel printer
port.
5.2 Setting Up a Plotter
Many plotters, and some printers, require a certain sequence of
operations to occur before the devices will run correctly in the Windows
environment. In general, you do these tasks:
1. Identify the device to Windows.
