OPERATION
The preceding section on Printer Drivers explained how to set up the
default operation of the various features. These were accessed via the
Windows program.
This section explains how to change the printers operation for specific
print jobs when required.
This involves using the same Properties page of the printer driver, but
it is accessed directly from within your Windows application program.
In this view the driver properties page may be more simplified than
the illustrations here, showing only those settings that you wish to
adjust.
Most applications allow the printer properties to be accessed from
within the document print dialogue.
COLOUR PRINTING
The PCL and PostScript printer drivers supplied with this machine
provide several controls for changing the colour output of your
printer. For general use the
Auto
settings will suffice, providing
reasonable default settings that will produce good results for most
documents.
Many applications have their own colour settings, and these may
override the settings in the printer driver. Please refer to the
documentation for your software application for details on how that
particular program’s colour management functions.
FACTORS THAT AFFECT THE APPEARANCE OF PRINTS
If you wish to manually adjust the colour settings in your printer
driver, please be aware that colour reproduction is a complex topic,
and there are many factors to take into consideration. Some of the
most important factors are listed below.
