Printing from a workstation
You send files to this printer as you would any PostScript printer such as the
Apple LaserWriter II NTX. Workstation users can print from any application
that generates PostScript (Level 1 or 2), HP-GL, or PCL5.
Sun and SGI users can use Tektronix' Unix Phaser Print software with
Tektronix color printers. Phaser Print provides fast raster screen copy
printing to Tektronix color printers. Phaser Print also provides a graphical
user interface for push-button control of certain Tektronix printer features.
Unix Phaser Print for Sun works with lpr to print PostScript files and raster
files in these formats: Sun Raster Format (SRF), xwd, and SGI/RGB.
Unix Phaser Print for SGI works with lp to print ASCII text files, PostScript
files, and raster files in these formats: SGI/RGB and xwd. Unix Phaser Print
for SGI requires the Impresario printing software from SGI.
