Help for Printer Properties ═══ Use this window to select from the characteristics that describe the physical setup of your printer, and to select default characteristics for individual print jobs. The information provided concerns the characteristics of the printer named in the heading of the window. Setup fields in this window enable you to specify the form in the printer and the number of paper trays. Push buttons give access to other physical printer setup windows in which you can link forms to each paper source, select font cards, and download fonts. You also can use this window to indicate if your printer supports an envelope feeder or auxiliary sheet feeder. The default print-job setup fields in this window enable you to specify resolution, the orientation of characters and graphics on the paper, spool-file type, and font selection. For a detailed explanation of each field, select from the list below: o Orientation o Resolution o Spool File Type o Paper Trays o Printer Fonts o Printer Patterns o Fast System Fonts o Duplex Control o Automatic Mode Switching o Optional Feeder o Default Form/Source o Form Connections o Create Forms o Download Fonts o Font Cards o Default Font o OK o Cancel Related Information: o Printer, queue, and program job-properties setup o Printer messages o Unattended printer operation o Printer settings ═══ 2.1. Help for Resolution ═══ Select the number, in dots-per-inch (dpi) increments, that represents the resolution in which you want graphics produced on your printer. Laser printers process device fonts in the highest available resolution, 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 option only applies to graphics data jobs. It does not apply to raw data jobs. Related Information: o Printer, queue, and program job-properties setup o Fast System Fonts o Automatic Mode Switching ═══ 2.2. Help for Orientation ═══ Select Portrait (upright) to print with the top of the printed material in the same direction as the top of the paper.

Help for Download Fonts ═══ This window contains a list of all the download fonts that print jobs can use. These fonts can be stored at the printer by one of the following two methods. First, download fonts can be stored in printer memory. The list on the left of the window contains all fonts that can be downloaded to printer memory. Selected fonts are downloaded when the first job is printed and will remain downloaded for subsequent jobs. Select those fonts that you use frequently. The remaining fonts are downloaded when they are required, and are deleted at the end of the job. Note: Powering off the printer causes all download fonts to be cleared from the printer's memory. The fonts can be reloaded (after you power the printer on) by either pressing the Reload Fonts button or rebooting your computer. Second, if the printer has a flash memory card installed, fonts can be stored in the flash memory card. The list on the right of the window contains all fonts that can be downloaded to or are currently resident in the flash memory card. Selected fonts are presumed to have been stored in the flash memory card by the Printer Installation Utility. Use the Flash Memory Option checkbox to indicate whether or not a flash memory card is installed in the printer. If the flash memory card is removed from the printer and the Flash Memory Option check box is not checked, any fonts previously selected as flash card fonts will be made available in the Download Fonts list. These fonts will be downloaded when they are required, and are deleted at the end of the job. Use the Memory Size field to indicate the amount of additional memory installed in your printer. Memory capacity determines the maximum number of fonts that can be downloaded to your printer during the first printing. Note: If the printer is directed to print a job with a data stream other than Printer Command Language (PCL**), the download fonts are cleared from printer memory. Do not select any fonts in the Download Fonts list, if you intend to print jobs using data streams other than PCL.

For a detailed explanation of each field, select from the list below: o Fonts o Outline Font Pt. Size o OK o Cancel Related Information: o Printer, queue, and program job-properties setup o Font symbol sets o Extended symbol sets ═══ spool file ═══ A file containing output data that has been saved for later processing. ═══ spooling ═══ The process of temporarily storing print jobs while waiting for an available printer or port at a print destination. Spooling jobs frees system resources from waiting for a relatively slow device to provide output, and keeps the contents of each print job separated from the contents of every other print job. ═══ resolution ═══ Density or sharpness of an image. For bit-map material, resolution is expressed in dots-per-inch, with higher quality output having more dots-per-inch. You can adjust resolution for some printers. Low-resolution images are printed faster, but appear coarser than high-resolution images. A printer's memory size might limit the resolution you can choose. ═══ device font ═══ A font particular to the printer. Some device fonts have size and language-support restrictions. Printer device fonts are internal to the printer hardware, or they can be installed as a card, or downloaded to printer memory. They are printed faster than system fonts. See also system font. ═══ download font ═══ A soft font copied (downloaded) to the memory of your printer. ═══ font-card files ═══ Files needed for each font card are typically supplied on a diskette in the font-card package. The files are frequently installed into a directory (such as C:\AUTOFONT) by a font installation program. When you install new font cards, you must specify the drive and directory of the following files for each card: o A GLUE.TXT file, which identifies the fonts supported by this card, and the location of the font support files. o Font Metric files, with the extension TFM, which contain the information about each font supported by this card. When the printer driver installs a font card, it creates a file with the extension FCF which contains the information about each font selected to be supported for that card. Note: There are IBM* LaserPrinter Font Cards that emulate some Hewlett-Packard** LaserJet** series II font cartridges and resident Hewlett-Packard LaserJet series IID fonts. If your IBM LaserPrinter Font Card is not listed in the Font Cards window of the printer driver, then contact your Lexmark** dealer, point of purchase or your country Lexmark representative, to receive the font files necessary for the printer driver to use the font card. ═══ font installation program ═══ Prior to adding a card or a download font you must install the font files onto the hard disk. This may involve running the Autofont Support Installer, copying files to a specific directory on the hard disk, or using some other utility. Follow the instructions with each font on installing the font files onto the hard disk. Make note of the directory where the files were stored, for example: C:\AUTOFONT. When you add new fonts for use with the printer driver, you must specify the name of the directory containing the font files. ═══ typefaces ═══ Identifies the unique design characteristics of the symbols of a particular font. Courier and Times Roman are examples of a typeface. ═══ extended symbol set ═══ A symbol set that includes characters that do not map to the Presentation Manager* (PM) character set. Such fonts frequently contain characters such as graphic characters, special characters, or bar codes. Examples of such symbol sets are OCR and Bar Codes. See also font symbol sets. ═══ symbol set ═══ A grouping of a set of characters in a specific order. ═══ font orientation ═══ This printer driver can create both portrait and landscape fonts from font files in either orientation. If you have font files for both portrait and landscape versions of the same font, the font will only be shown in the windows once, but it will support the font in both the portrait and landscape orientations. ═══ download-font files ═══ Files needed for each download font are supplied on a diskette in the download-font package. The files are frequently installed into a directory (such as C:\AUTOFONT) by a font installation program. The download font support files typically include: o A download font file, which usually has the extension .SFS for outline fonts, but may have any extension for bitmapped fonts. o Font Metric files, with the extension TFM, which carry the information about the font. These are required for outline fonts. o A GLUE.TXT file, which identifies the location of the font support files. The GLUE.TXT file is optional for download fonts. When the printer driver installs a download font it creates a file, with the extension FMF, which contains the information about the font. ═══ metric file ═══ A file created by the printer driver to describe a download font or a font card. The metric file for a download font has the extension FMF, and the metric file for a font card has the extension FCF. ═══ flash memory card ═══ A special memory card that can be installed in the printer that provides a location for permanent download of soft fonts. This memory card is unaffected by resets to the printer. ═══ printer installation utility ═══ This utility, supplied with the printer, provides a variety of printer-specific utilities, including downloading soft fonts to the flash memory card. ═══ printer driver ═══ A file that provides device-independence. This file describes the physical characteristics of a printer and is used to convert graphics into device-specific data at the time of printing. ═══ queue ═══ A list of jobs waiting to be printed at a particular print destination. See also spooling. ═══ system font ═══ One of the general fonts available for screen display and printing. You can specify any size for this font, and it supports any language. Contrast with device font. ═══ radio button ═══ A circle with text beside it. Radio buttons are combined to show you a fixed set of choices from which only one can be selected. The circle is partially filled when a choice is selected. ═══ check mark ═══ A symbol that shows that a choice is currently active. This symbol is used in menus and check boxes. See check box. ═══ check box ═══ A square box with associated text that represents one choice in a set of multiple choices. When you select a choice, a check mark appears in the check box to indicate that the choice is in effect. You can clear the check box by selecting the choice again. Contrast with radio button. ═══ code page ═══ The character set used to display characters on the screen or print characters on the printer. ═══ soft font ═══ Optional fonts shipped as files. The soft-font files must be copied to the hard disk before you can select them from programs. ═══ push button ═══ A rectangle with text inside. Push buttons are used in windows for actions that occur immediately when the push button is selected. ═══ font ═══ A given size and style of type. A family of characters of a given size and style; for example, 9-point Helvetica. ═══ outline font ═══ A font that enables its characters to be shaped with more flexibility (for example, scaled to different sizes). ═══ default ═══ A value, an attribute, or an option that is assumed when another is not explicitly specified. ═══ path ═══ 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 font files on drive C: A:\ C:\OS2\DLL\PCL5FONT A path is sometimes followed by a file name and file-name extension (if there is one). ═══ 21.

Program-specified job properties override defaults of either queue or printer properties. ═══ Printer Messages ═══ If your Laser Printer issues a message indicating operational failure, check for the following: o Memory Full - Caused by a page with dense graphics or a combination of text and graphics that exceeds the printer memory. Some Laser Printers allow memory compression of images in the printer. Try turning this option ON from your printer's operator panel, or try adding more memory to the printer. - Caused by more fonts downloaded during the first print job than the printer memory can support. Try reducing the number of highlighted fonts in the Download Fonts window, or try adding more memory to the printer. o Complex Page - Caused by a page with dense graphics or a combination of text and graphics that the printer cannot print. Try reducing the resolution of the print job, or try adding more memory to the printer. 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 printerdriver Form Connections window, changing the selection there to match the form required by the waiting job. ═══ Unattended Printer Operation ═══ 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. ═══ Help Version ═══ The help version is 1.013. ═══ Printer Settings ═══ In some cases, single pages are printed as multiple pages or duplex pages are printed as simplex pages due to the Print Timeout Setting being active on the printer. Use the operator panel on the printer to increase or disable the Print Timeout Setting.
