Use 32-bit Spooler
Select this option for consistently faster print processing. This option is only
selectable if operating under Windows 95 or Windows 98 and if the included 32-Bit
Print Spooler software has been installed. When selected, this option allows the
printer driver to send all print jobs to the printerÕs 32-Bit Print Spooler rather than
to the system spooler of Windows. See Part C of this section for complete details on
the 32-Bit Print Spooler. This option and the 32-Bit Print Spooler software will not
function in Windows 3.1x.
Write Direct to Port
Selecting this option provides the fastest print processing when printing exclusively
from Windows 3.1x. When selected, this option allows the printer driver to bypass
the Windows 3.1x Print Manager and to send all print data directly to the printer.
This option devotes all of your system resources to the current print job, thereby
increasing overall print speed. When the print job is finished, your system
resources will again be released and devoted to the normal function of your on-
screen applications.
Depending upon the processing speed and brand of your computer, you may or
may not need to select this option when printing with the 4250 Card Printer. For
most computers, selecting this option will enhance the speed of the rasterizing and
printing process. In this case, the Write Direct to Port option should be selected. For
some computers, however, this option may either not be supported by the
