HP (Hewlett-Packard) QMS 1660 Printer User Manual


 
Make sure you have installed the QMS 1660 and 1660E PDFs in the
PDF folder in the QuarkXPress folder. While QuarkXPress 3.3 allows
you to access either a PDF or a PPD, to have access to all of your
printer’s features, you should use the PDF. To select the PDF, go to
the Page Setup dialog box in QuarkXPress, and hold down the Shift
key while clicking the Printer Type list box. (The italicized selections
are PPDs, and the non-italicized selections are PDFs.)
» Note:
The 1660E PDF allows you to choose between basic and
enhanced (advanced) screening (or halftoning) in QuarkXPress. If
this PDF is not present, you won’t be able to used enhanced
halftoning even though the printer supports it.
To use enhanced (advanced) screening (or halftoning), do the
following:
At the Printer
In the Administration/Emulations/PostScript/Halftone Type menu
select Advanced.

menu select No.
In Your QuarkXPress Document (Page Setup Dialog Box)
In the Printer Type listbox select 1660 Enhanced Screening PDF.
