ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 2.1. Help for Resolution ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Select the number, in dots-per-inch (dpi) increments, representing the
resolution in which you want graphics produced on your printer.  A resolution
of 600x600 will make device fonts unavailable for printing, otherwise laser
printers process device fonts in a resolution of 300x300, and can mix high
resolution text with lower resolution graphics.

Select the highest number for the best quality.  Because printing high
resolution takes longer, you can reserve this setting for final documents.
Select a low number to print faster; for example, to produce drafts of
documents.

This choice applies only to printing graphics data job.  It does not apply to
rawdata job.

Note:   If you select a resolution of 600x600, a minimum of 4 MegaBytes of
        memory installed in your printer is suggested.  This resolution is only
        available on later or upgraded versions of IBM* 4029 LaserPrinters.
        The IBM 4029 LaserPrinter 5E does not support a resolution of 600x600.
        To determine whether your printer supports 600x600 resolution, print
        the Printer Settings page from your printer's operator panel.  The code
        version, located after the part number (P/N), should be at or later
        than 60D.

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 2.2. Help for Orientation ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Select Portrait (upright) to print with the top of the printed material in the
same direction as the top of the paper.  Letters, books, and reports usually
have portrait orientation.

Select Landscape (rotated) to print perpendicular to the direction in which the
paper is fed.  Landscape is frequently selected for documents such as
spreadsheets or plotted graphics, which are wider than they are long.

the deletion.  Selecting Yes deletes the selected form.  Selecting No returns
the Defined Forms selection list without deleting the form.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 2.7. Help for Spool File Type ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Use the Spool File Type list to select the default format of jobs that are
printed to the spool queue.

 PM_Q_RAW
           The file created when the job is added to the spool queue consists
           of device-dependent Personal Printer Data Stream (PPDS) commands.
           PM_Q_RAW jobs might take more time to be added to the spool queue,
           but might take less time to be removed from the spool queue than
           PM_Q_STD jobs.
 PM_Q_STD
           The file created when the job is added to the spool queue consists
           of device-independent Presentation Manager* (PM) commands.  PM_Q_STD
           jobs might take less time to be added to the spool queue, but might
           take more time to be removed from the spool queue than PM_Q_RAW
           jobs.

 Note:   This selection can be overridden by a Presentation Manager program.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 2.8. Help for Compression ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Use the Compression radio buttons to compress graphic data being sent to the
printer.  Selecting compression decreases printing time for most print jobs
that have graphics.  Two types of compression are available:

 o G4:  Improves printing of graphic data that does not have a large number of
   alternating bits, (for example, large areas that are filled with solid
   color).

   Note:   This type of compression is available on all IBM* 4029
           LaserPrinters.  It is only available on the IBM 4019 LaserPrinter
           that supports Form Feed Time Out.  To determine this support, do a
           Power-On Self Test on the printer.  The IBM 4019 LaserPrinters do
           not support compression in Landscape orientation.


 o TIFF Packbit Byte:  Improves printing of graphic data that consists mostly
   of repeating bytes, (for example, large areas that are filled with one
   pattern).

   Note:   This type of compression is not supported by the IBM 4019
           LaserPrinters.


 Select None if you do not use compression.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 2.9. Help for Printer Patterns ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Select this check box to enable internal Printer Patterns to be substituted for
system patterns in filled graphic paths.  Using Printer Patterns allows jobs
containing shaded and patterned areas to print substantially faster and require
smaller spool files. This feature should not be used if printer output should
exactly match patterns displayed on your screen, nor if there are overlapping
shaded or patterned graphics in your document.

Printer Patterns is disabled when a resolution of 600x600 is selected.

Note:   Occasionally, selecting Printer Patterns produces results that are
        different on the printer than on the display.  In these cases,
        de-selecting Printer Patterns might give the desired results.

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 2.10. Help for Fast System Fonts ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Select this check box to enable downloading of OS/2* system fonts.  System
fonts will be copied to the printer memory which allows your job to print
faster and requires a smaller spool file than one that has the document in
graphic font form.  This feature should not be used when overlapping system
fonts with graphics.

Fast System Fonts is disabled when a resolution of 600x600 is selected.

Note:   Occasionally, selecting Fast System Fonts produces results that are
        different on the printer than on the display.  In these cases,
        de-selecting Fast System Fonts might give the desired results.

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> default ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

A value, an attribute, or an option that is assumed when another is not
explicitly specified.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> path ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

A statement that indicates where a file is stored.  The path consists of the
drive letter and all the directories that must be opened to get to a particular
file. The directory names are separated by a backslash (\). The first backslash
represents the root directory.  The first path in the example below shows a
file that is located in the root directory of a diskette in drive A; the second
path in the example shows a path to a printer driver file on drive C:

 A:\
 C:\OS2\DLL\IBM4019

A path is sometimes followed by a file name and file-name extension (if there
is one).


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> check mark ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

A symbol that shows that a choice is currently active.  This symbol is used in
menus and check boxes.  See check box.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> check box ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

 o If you submit a job (for example, from a Presentation Manager* program) that
   does not specify print-job characteristics, but does take on characteristics
   from its queue, the job is printed with the job properties you specified for
   that queue.
 o If your program enables you to set up job properties for a specific print
   file, the job is printed with those characteristics.  Program-specified job
   properties override defaults of either queue or printer properties.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> Printer Messages ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

If an IBM* LaserPrinter issues a message indicating operational failure, check
for the following:

 o A page with dense graphics or a combination of text and graphics that
   exceeds the printer memory.
 o More fonts downloaded at startup time (initialization) than the printer
   memory can support.
 o An attempt to use fonts from more than two font cards in a single print
   page. (IBM LaserPrinters do not allow fonts from more than two font cards to
   be used on any one printed page.)

 The system issues a Forms Mismatch error message, and prevents a job from
 printing if the form selected for the job is not also selected in the Form
 Connections window.  Load the appropriate form for the job, then access the
 printer-driver Form Connections window, changing the selection there to match
 the form required by the waiting job.

 The system prompts you to insert a font card if a job requires a font, and the
 printer-driver Font Cards window has the appropriate font card selected in the
 Available Cards list, but not in the Slot 1 Card or Slot 2 Card lists.
 Install the font card to enable the job to be printed.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> Unattended Printer Operation ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

To maintain unattended operation of your printer:

  1. Do not select any Available Forms for the manual paper or manual envelope
     sources; otherwise, the printer driver might issue a prompt for a form,
     and operator intervention will be required.
  2. Select, in the Available Cards list, only the font cards actually
     installed in the font slots; otherwise, the printer driver might issue a
     prompt for a font card, and operator intervention will be required.

This is the IBM4019 help version 1.215.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> Printer Settings ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

In some cases, single pages are printed as multiple pages due to the Print
Timeout Setting being active on the printer.  Use the operator panel on the
printer to disable the Print Timeout Setting.  Early models of the IBM* 4019
LaserPrinter do not support Print Timeout.  For a detailed explanation refer to
the printer's operator manual.
