4-2 Printer Drivers and Print Options
Your DocuColor 40 CP user software includes Adobe printer drivers for Mac OS,
Windows 95, and Windows 3.1x computers. These are the recommended printer
drivers for printing to the DocuColor 40 CP.
For Windows NT 4.0 computers, use the Microsoft PostScript Level 2 printer driver
included with Windows NT 4.0. Printer descriptions are available on your
DocuColor 40 CP User Software CD.
Adobe PostScript Printer Driver for Mac OS
This section explains how to set color management print options with the
AdobePS 8.5.1 printer driver for Mac OS. AdobePS is a PostScript 3 driver that can
take full advantage of the color features of the DocuColor 40 CP, and lets you save a
set of print option settings that you use often.
Before you proceed, make sure you have completed the following procedures:
• Install the AdobePS printer driver and the DocuColor 40 CP PPD as described in
Getting Started.
• Select the DocuColor 40 CP in the Chooser and match it with the
DocuColor 40 CP PPD.
NOTE: The following illustrations and instructions do not apply to all applications.
Some applications, such as PageMaker 6.5, handle color management settings
independently of the printer driver. For information on specific applications, see the
application notes.
Setting color management print options
You choose print options from the various panes of the AdobePS driver dialog box.
NOTE: The word “pane” is used to describe the different “pages” that appear in the
driver’s dialog box when you make selections from pull-down menus in the dialog box.
Each pane presents a particular set of print options.
To access the initial AdobePS dialog box, choose Print from your application’s File
menu.
