Operation
This chapter provides a broad outline of how to operate your
printer from either a Windows or a Macintosh environment. In
the former, while PCL emulation is available on all printer models,
PS emulation is available on the B431 models.
Printer settings in Windows
The operator panel controlled menus and Configuration Tool
(described in the chapter entitled “Operator panels”) provide
access to many options.
The Windows printer driver also contains settings for many of
these items. Where items in the printer driver are the same as
those in the operator panel and Configuration Tool menus, and
you print documents from Windows, the settings in the Windows
printer driver will override those settings in the operator panel
and Configuration Tool menus.
Printing preferences in Windows
applications
When you choose to print your document from a Windows
application program a Print dialogue box appears. This dialogue
usually specifies the name of the printer on which you will print
your document. Next to the printer name is a Properties button.
When you click Properties a new window opens which contains
a short list of the printer settings available in the driver, which
you can choose for this document. The settings available from
within your application are only those which you may want to
change for specific applications or documents. Settings you
change here will usually only last for as long as the particular
application program is running.
Note
The illustrations in this guide relate to Windows XP
PCL and PS emulations – other operating system
windows may appear slightly different but the
principles are the same.
