The DocuColor enables you to print from a Windows-based computer connected to
the DocuColor. This chapter describes how to print to the DocuColor from
Windows 95
®
, Windows
®
3.1x, and Windows NT
.
You can print from a networked Windows computer, or from a Windows computer
connected to the parallel port on the DocuColor. If you plan to print files at another
location, you should follow the procedures described in “Saving files to print at a
remote location” on page 3-12.
Another way to print from a Windows computer is to download PostScript files or
Encapsulated PostScript (EPS) files using the Downloader utility.
NOTE: For information on setting up the Windows environment for printing with
Windows servers connected to the DocuColor, see the Administrator Guide. For
information on how to connect to the DocuColor over the network, install printer
drivers, and install the utilities, see Getting Started.
Printing from applications
Once you have installed the DocuColor printer driver and set it to the proper port as
described in Getting Started, you should be able to print directly from most Windows
applications. Simply choose the Print command from within your application.
Setting options and printing with Windows 95
Once you have installed the DocuColor printer driver file, you can select the printer
settings you prefer. You can also change settings for a particular file when you print the
file to the DocuColor.
To print from Windows 95, use the Adobe PostScript printer driver included with the
user software. This driver uses all features of the DocuColor.
Before printing, make sure that the correct print options are set.
