Which Printer Driver to Use?
Your printer comes with Windows drivers for PCL and Adobe
®
PostScript
®
(PS). You can install either of these, or both if you wish.
Which driver you choose depends on your application.
• If you use TrueType fonts and you do not print PostScript
(including “.eps” files) graphics, choose the PCL driver. This is
more efficient and give good results.
• If you use PostScript fonts or print PostScript graphics, choose the
PostScript driver. In this situation, performance is faster and
graphics are printed at their best quality.
If neither driver seems to cover all your needs, you should install both
drivers. Select the same printer port (LPT1 or Network Port) for both
drivers during the installation.
Set the driver you plan to use most of the time to be your Windows
default driver. Most applications allow you to choose a different
printer from within the print dialog, so you can use the alternative
driver for printing whenever you need to.
NOTE
The line art graphics in this manual are PostScript.
If you plan to print parts of this manual, choose the
PostScript driver. Otherwise, the line art graphics print at
low resolution. The print quality may not be satisfactory.
