Sharing the printer on a network
Driver and utility file interactions
If your Phaser 240 printer is shared by other users on a network, using the
downloadable utility files to change the printer’s color correction setting, can
affect prints made by other users.
If the colors on your prints are not what you expected, ask your system
administrator whether a color correction utility file has been downloaded to
the printer. You can also print a configuration page (or startup page) to see
the printer’s current color correction setting; see page B-4 for instructions.
Note
Refer to page 6-8 for more information on using color correction
utility files.
When you print from a Tektronix driver with any TekColor color
correction option (except Use Printer Setting), the driver selection
overrides the following selections for prints made from the driver:
A color correction utility file, if one has been downloaded to the
printer.
The position of the printer’s switches (located inside the rear panel
door). Switch 3 down turns off all color corrections. Switch 3 up is
Vivid Color, the factory default color correction, if no utility file has
been downloaded.
When you print from a Tektronix driver with the Use Printer
Setting option, your images are printed with the color correction
setting currently in the printer’s memory:
A color correction utility file, if one has been downloaded to the
printer.
The position of the printer’s switches (located inside the rear panel
door). Switch 3 down turns off all color corrections. Switch 3 up is
Vivid Color, the factory default color correction, if no utility file has
been downloaded.
