Tektronix supplies and drivers
Always use Tektronix supplies to ensure the highest quality prints and
printer performance. Tektronix print drivers provide extensive control of
print features.
Getting the largest printed picture
To get the largest printed picture, keep in mind the following:
The area of paper that the Phaser 480X prints on is smaller than
the paper size (refer to ÒMargins and print areaÓ on page 3-12 for
more details). You may have to adjust the margins in your
application software.
Use a Tektronix Phaser 480X driver to get the largest print (image)
areas. Refer to the Phaser 480X Drivers and Utilities Printing
Reference.
Relative port speed
Ethernet is the fastest port, followed by the parallel port, the LocalTalk port,
then the serial port.
