HP DeskJet 500C Application Note
for Applause II, Version 1.5
Use the installation utility contained on the "HP DeskJet 500C Color Driver
Disk for DOS", to copy the driver files to your Applause II directory on
your hard disk.
Using the "SETUPAP" Program
---------------------------
Run the SETUPAP program to configure Applause II with your HP DeskJet 500C
printer.
1. From the AP15 directory on your hard disk, type SETUPAP...then <Enter>.
2. Press S (Setup) ...then press <Enter>.
3. Press O (Output) ...then press <Enter>.
4. Use the arrow keys to highlight an "Output device..." that hasn't been
configured yet ...then press <Enter>.
5. Press <Enter> again to select "Printer".
6. Use the up/down arrow keys to highlight "HP DeskJet series ...", then
press <Enter>.
7. Press M (MainMenu) ...then press <Enter>.
8. Press <Enter> again to select "Save changes".
9. Insert your Applause II "Printers Disk" into a floppy drive.
10. Type the floppy drive letter ...then press <Enter>.
11. Press E (Exit) ...then <Enter>, to end the SETUPAP program.
Setting Up for Color Printing
-----------------------------
From the Applause II subdirectory on your hard disk run COLOR.BAT by
typing the following command; C:\AP15> COLOR ...then <Enter>.
This batch file configures Applause II to allow color printing using the
"HP DeskJet series..." driver.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The old "HP DeskJet series..." driver shipped with your
Applause II software has been saved (in a file called HPDJB.DRV) in order
to allow you to switch back to black-only printing using the black ink
cartridge. (See the section below entitled "Switching Between Color and
Black-Only Printing".)
From Applause II do the following;
1. Under "File" in the menu bar, select "Print...", then press <Enter>.
2. With your mouse, click on the printer device and drag the cursor down
to select "HP DeskJet series...". NOTE: If you're not using a mouse,
press the <Tab> key several times to highlight the block to the right
of "Device:", then press <Enter> and use the up/down arrow keys to
select "HP DeskJet series..." ...then press <Enter> again.
3. Select "Setup".
4. Verify that your "Output port" is correct.
5. Use the up/down arrow keys to highlight the block across from
"Resolution:" ...then press <Enter>.
6. Select the desired resolution.
NOTE: "Low" = 150 dots per inch (fast, but lower quality)
"Medium" = 300 dots per inch (same as "High")
"High" = 300 dots per inch (presentation quality)
7. Select the desired "Paper size:".
8. Verify that the color ink cartridge is in the printer.
9. Click on "OK" (or <Tab> to it, then press <Enter>)...to begin printing.
NOTE: There may be a delay from the time you click on "OK" until the
printer actually begins printing. This delay is due to the
processing time it takes for Applause(tm) II to prepare the
color data for printing.
Switching Between Color and Black-Only Printing
-----------------------------------------------
In order to switch between color-only (color ink cartridge installed) and
black-only (black ink cartridge installed) printing, you'll need to run a
couple of batch file programs we've supplied in your Applause II directory.
To switch from color to black-only do the following:
From the Applause II directory on your hard disk run BLACK.BAT by typing
the following command; C:\AP15> BLACK ...then press <Enter>.
The program simply recovers the old "HP DeskJet series..." black-only
driver to allow you to print with the black ink cartridge installed (or
with any other black-only DeskJet series printer). Color printing is
disabled after running the BLACK.BAT file. If you wish to switch back
to color-only, then run the COLOR.BAT file. From Applause II select
the "HP DeskJet series..." driver as you normally would. Make sure that
you have installed the correct ink cartridge in the printer prior to
printing.
