that a print file has all driver settings built into that file at the
time of creation. Once this file is created it cannot be changed.
For example, if a print file was created with the cartridge type
set to color, you can only print using a color cartridge. If you
change to a monochrome cartridge, the print file will not work.
You would have to recreate the print file with the driver
properties set to monochrome in order for it to work properly.
Once you are confident of your driver settings, simply click
Print. When using Windows 2000 or XP you will be prompted
for the name, but not the destination path. The file destination
is determined by your operating system. To find the file after it
is created, simply search for that file using the Find File feature
found on the Start Menu. Each time a file is created it should
be saved in this location. It does not matter where you save the
file to, but you will want to name the file with the PRN file
extension or it may not work properly.
E. CREATING PRN FILES IN SURETHING CD LABELER
Printing to a file is a good way to spool a print file for use with
automated duplication.
a. Open up SureThing CD Labeler
b. Create or Open up an already created file.
c. Go to File on the menu bar.
d. Select Print.
e. Select the Advanced button at the bottom left corner of the
print window.
f. Check the Print to File check box and select OK
g. Select OK to print.
h. When prompted to provide an Output Filename, type in a
name that you want to give the PRN file (ex. test.prn).
Make sure to type in the extension .prn when creating the
output file. If you want to directly specify where you want
to save the PRN file, you may directly specify it at this time
(ex. C:\My Documents\test.prn). If you do not provide a
path, the file will most likely be copied to the,
My Documents folder. If not, you may search for it using
the Search feature from your Start menu.
Please Note: If you wish to print directly from SureThing, you will need
to disable Print to File in the Advanced options.
