DOS Printing
Since DOS applications are developed independently under different
standards, each DOS application requires its own printer driver. If there is
no driver available for the HP DeskJet 690C series printer, use a driver for
a different HP DeskJet printer. In some cases, the substitute driver will not
provide access to all of the DeskJet 690C’s capabilities.
The following table outlines usable drivers and their capabilities when
used with an HP DeskJet 690C series printer.
