HP LaserJet and HP LaserJet-Compatible Printers ═══ The LASERJET.DRV supports HP LaserJet**printers using Printer Control Language (PCL), and three device font types: o Your printer is shipped with one or more internal fonts, which are fonts permanently stored in its memory. When you indicate printer model during installation, you automatically set up these fonts. o You can purchase cartridge fonts, (fonts that have additional character shapes, alphabets, or graphic character sets) in a package that fits into a slot on your printer. The cartridge provides additional memory to the printer, with the font shapes already loaded. o Some cartridges include extended fonts, that enable you to print characters (for example, bar codes) that are not included in the character sets supplied with your operating system. o Soft fontsare optional fonts shipped as files. Some fonts have predetermined sizes, and some can be scaled to size from within a program. At the time of printing, the fonts selected for a print job are downloaded, or copied, to the memory of your printer. The capacity of printer memory determines the number of different fonts you can select for downloading with a particular print job. To take advantage of fonts: 1. The device drivers that come with your OS/2* system contain a list of cartridge names catalogued by the printer manufacturer. If you have a cartridge, and want to install its fonts, display the Printer Properties window for the driver, then select Fonts. Installing entails adding font names to the list of Installed fonts in the Font Installer window. If you purchase fonts separately, the font manufacturer might supply a separate installation program that you must run before you can add fonts in the Font Installer window. 2. Exiting the Font Installer window re-displays the Printer Properties window. In the Printer Properties window, you mark as active, any cartridge loaded into a printer slot. Your printer might have one or more cartridge slots. 3. Select the fonts for a particular job from within your program. You can mix internal, cartridge, and downloadable fonts in any print job. Related information: o Installing Hewlett-Packard AutoFont support o Font symbol sets ═══ 7. Installing Hewlett-Packard AutoFont Support ═══ The AutoFont support files provided with Hewlett-Packard**typeface diskettes and cartridges contain information needed to install the typefaces. 1. Using DOS, run the AutoFont Support Installation program (or the Type Director 2.0 program). Make note of the directoryinto which the program installsits diskette files. 2. Display the Printer Properties window for the driver; then select Fonts. 3. In the New font directory field, type the name of the directory containing the AutoFont Support files. For more information on typefaces and AutoFont support files, consult the Hewlett-Packard documentation. ═══ 8. Font Symbol Sets ═══ A symbol set determines a mapping between the machine-readable value of a character and the font in which it is printed. When installing Hewlett-Packard**fonts for laser printers, the New soft fonts, New cartridge fonts, and Installed fonts fields list symbol sets by using the following abbreviations: US ASCII R8 Roman 8, US ASCII, plus additional European characters PM Symbols map one to one with code-page 850 PC PC-8, corresponding with code-page 437 PD PC-8DN Danish and Norwegian code-page 437N DT Desktop, US ASCII plus additional useful symbols.

Select from the Available typefaces list those typefaces for which you want to add extended fonts. ═══ 20. Help for Extended Symbol Sets ═══ This field lists all the extended fonts included on your cartridge for the typefaces you selected in the Available typefaces field. Each extended symbol set has an abbreviation that identifies it, followed by a short description. Consult the documentation included with your cartridge, if you want to see a picture of a particular symbol set identified in the list. Select one or more symbol sets, then select OK to continue installing your cartridge. ═══ hard disk ═══ A rigid disk in a hard disk drive that you cannot remove. The hard disk can be partitioned into storage areas of variable sizes that are subdivided into directories and subdirectories. See also partition. ═══ partition ═══ A fixed-size division of storage. On an IBM personal computer hard disk, one of four possible storage areas of variable size; one might be accessed by DOS, and each of the others might be assigned to another operating system. ═══ path ═══ A statement that indicates where a file is stored on a particular drive. The path consists of all the directories that must be opened to get to a particular file. The directory names are separated by the backslash (\). The first backslash represents the root directory. For example, a file named things that is located in the EDIT directory of drive C has a path of: c:\edit\things A path is sometimes followed by a file name and a file name extension (if there is one). It is sometimes preceded by a drive letter and a colon (:). ═══ 21. Help for Printer Properties of HP LaserJet ═══ The heading of the Printer Properties window identifies the model HP LaserJet**or compatible printer you have selected. Use the fields in this window to indicate the form loaded in each tray of your laser printer, and any font cartridges inserted in the printer. The push buttons give access to other properties windows which you use to define additional forms, and to identify fonts you have purchased for your printer. For a detailed explanation of each field, select from the list below: o Paper source o Active cartridges o Help for Memory o Help for Page Protection o Help for PostScript Cartridge Plus o Help for Environment Savings o Fonts o Forms o Defaults o Cancel o OK Related information: HP LaserJet and HP LaserJet-compatible printers ═══ 22. Help for Paper Source ═══ This field provides a place to assign forms to each tray your printer accommodates. Thus, if your printer has two trays, Upper and Lower appear here. If you use different size paper, envelopes, or preprinted special forms in one or more of your paper trays, you can specify a different paper form for each tray. Each tray has a form field with the currently selected form displayed. 1. Select the arrow to the right of the form field to see the list of available forms. 2. Select the form you want. You can scroll the list to see more forms. You can add more forms to the list by selecting the Forms push button at the bottom of the window. ═══ 23. Help for Active Cartridges ═══ This list contains the names of installed cartridge fonts. Select from the list any cartridges currently inserted in the printer. Because some laser printers have more than one cartridge slot, Max. = indicates the total number of cartridges you can select. If you attempt to select more than that maximum, the next cartridge name you select replaces the first one selected, and you hear a warning tone. If you have a cartridge that is not listed, select the Fonts push button; a window appears that enables you to add your cartridge to the list. ═══ 24. Help for Memory ═══ Enter the total amount of memory installed in your printer. The printer Self Test page indicates the amount of memory installed. Choose a memory amount in kilobytes. Total memory includes standard memory plus the memory on expansion cards, if any. If you are unsure about this value, run the printer Self Test to display the amount of installed memory. Setting the correct memory value ensures optimum performance from the printer and the driver. ═══ 25. Help for Page Protection ═══ This list contains the possible types of Page Protection for this printer. Select the level of page protection (OFF, LTR, A4, or LGL) that you set on your printer. The current value for page protection appears on the Self Test page of the printer. Use the printer front control panel to change the value for page protection, then update this dialog with the new value. For LaserJet III printers, two MB of printer memory is necessary to set page protection to LTR or A4. Three MB of memory is necessary for LGL. For LaserJet 4 printers, six MB of printer memory is necessary to set page protection to LTR, A4, or LGL when printing at at 600 DPI. Note: On Laserjet 4 printers with two MB of memory, page protection settings of LTR, A4 or LGL will cause the printer to automatically change its resolution to 300 DPI. This can cause incorrect output. If this happens, turn page protect OFF on the printer control panel or add more memory to the printer. The default setting on the printer is page protection OFF. ═══ 26. Help for PostScript Cartridge Plus ═══ The PostScript Cartridge Plus option enables a printer to accept a PostScript data stream. If this option is installed in your printer, enable this checkbox to send the correct initialization strings to the printer for the PCL language. To print in PostScript mode, the OS/2 PostScript driver must be installed and selected. ═══ 27. Help for Defaults ═══ Select Defaults for an opportunity to specify number of copies, orientation, resolution, choice of form, paper feed, duplex printing, and fast (downloaded) system fonts. These defaultchoices are used if you do not specify these types of job properties for a particular print job or for the queueto which you submit that job. ═══ 28. Help for Fonts ═══ Select Fonts for access to the Font Installer window. You can then view a list of currently installed soft fonts and cartridge fonts, or you can add fonts to those listed as installed. ═══ 29. Help for Forms ═══ Select Formsto add forms to those listed for each paper tray. Add a form if the defined forms do not include a paper size that matches the paper loaded in your printer. You can also add a form to assign a unique name to a preprinted form, even if it conforms to a size already defined. ═══ 30. Help for Environment Savings ═══ The Environment Savings items are enabled when the Postscript language option is installed and there is sufficient memory to support it. If you change the values of Environment Savings for PCL and/or Postscript on the front panel of the printer, then update this dialog to reflect those changes. ═══ 31. Help for LaserJet Job Properties ═══ Use Job Properties to request multiple copies, specify orientation, resolution, and elect to downloadsystem fonts. You can select a tray-loaded form or indicate that you will feed forms by hand, and specify output bin if your printer has more than one place for holding printed pages. You also can select dual-sided printing for printer models offering this feature. Some programs provide access to this window, enabling you to assign these job properties for a specific document or template. When setting up a queue, you select job property defaults that take effect if the program does not override them. For a detailed explanation of each field, select from the list below: o Copies o Orientation o Resolution o Print Mode o Fast system fonts o Printer patterns o HP-GL/2 o Large buffers o Form o First page o Remaining pages o RET o Economode o ImageAdapt o Paper feed o 1 or 2 sided printing o Output bin o Custom Color o Effects o OK ═══ 32. Help for Copies ═══ In this field, type the number of copies of each page you want printed. ═══ 33. Help for Orientation ═══ Select Portrait (upright) to print 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. ═══ 34. Help for Resolution ═══ Select the number, in dots-per-inch (dpi) increments, that represents the resolutionin which you want graphics produced on your printer. Laser printers process device fontsin the highest available resolution, and can mix high resolution text with lower resolution graphics. Select the highest number for the best quality. Because printing in 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. Note: Your printer must have enough memory to hold the dots composing a print job. For laser printers with less than one megabyte of memory, select 75 or 150 dpi to print a full-page graphic, a dense graphic, or a full-page spreadsheet that has horizontal and vertical lines mixed with text. ═══ 35. Help for Fast System Fonts ═══ Select this check boxto 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 overlaying system fonts with graphics as text may not always appear. ═══ 36. Help for Printer Patterns ═══ 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 rectangular areas to print substantially faster and and require smaller spool files. This feature should not be used if printer output patterns should exactly match patterns displayed on your screen, nor if there are overlapping shaded or patterned graphics in your document. Printer resolution of 300 or higher is recommended when Printer patterns are enabled to ensure the best output. ═══ 37. Help for HP-GL/2 ═══ Select this check boxto enable HP-GL/2 output. HP-GL/2 is the Hewlett-Packard Graphical Language used on plotters. This feature will allow faster printing of graphic objects as lines and circles. When printing very complex HP-GL/2 images, HP printers might report error 21, print overrun, on the front panel of the printer. If this happens, turn off the HP-GL/2 option in the Device Properties, or enable page protectionat the printer front control panel and Printer Properties dialog, or add additional memory to the printer. Printer memory, page complexity and page protection interact with varying output speed and quality. For fastest output, enable page protection (which may require additional memory) on both the printer and Printer Properties dialog and use HP-GL/2. ═══ 38. Help for RET ═══ RET stands for Resolution Enhancement Technology. This is a feature found in certain Hewlett-Packard printers including Series III and Series 4 printers. With Series III printers, RET is set using the control panel on the printer. With Series 4 printers, RET is set by using the printer control panel or through software by using settings on this dialog. Resolution Enhancement Technology refines the print quality of characters and graphics by "smoothing" the fine gradations along the angles and curves of the printed image. RET has five possible settings: Default Use the RET setting currently set in the printer. Off Turn off RET completely. Light, Medium, and Dark These settings vary the effect of RET. See next paragraph. The factory default setting is medium. You may discover that a different setting works better for your printer. (See the RET block on the Printer Self Test print out). ═══ 39. Help for ECONOMODE ═══ EconoMode printing reduces the number of pixels or "dots of toner" placed on the page. By using EconoMode for your proofs and rough drafts, you can lower your cost-per-page by 50%. The print is still very readable. ECONOMODE has 2 possible settings, ON and OFF. The factory default setting is OFF. ═══ 40. Help for IMAGEADAPT ═══ Image Adapt is a Hewlett-Packard innovation that compresses data so that you can print complex graphics using the printer's base memory. ImageAdapt has 3 possible settings: ON Lossy compression will be used on any images that need to have compression performed. OFF No use of the Lossy compression. AUTO The possible use of Lossy compression (as worst case). The factory default setting is AUTO. ═══ 41. Help for Large buffers ═══ For computers with at least eight MB of memory, printing speed will increase by using large buffers. For computers with less than eight MB of memory, do not use large buffers. Large buffers are only available at 600 DPI resolution. ═══ 42. Help for First Page ═══ This list contains all the forms defined for this printer. You can scroll the list to see more form names. Select the form on which the first page of your job should print. ═══ 43. Help for Remaining Pages ═══ This list contains all the forms defined for this printer. You can scroll the list to see more form names. Select the form on which all pages after the first page of your job should print. ═══ 44. Help for Print Mode ═══ Print mode lets you control the way your printer prints color images (if applicable). You may be able to choose from the following options: Monochrome: This setting is the default for a monochrome-only printer. Shades of Gray: Prints all text, graphics, and bitmap images in shades of gray. Uses the HP ColorSmart settings (such as Halftone) to process the document. Manual Color: Lets you change the printer's color settings for text, graphics, and bitmap images. Select the Custom Colorbutton to change the color settings. ColorSmart: Color is optimized based on the type of data being sent to the printer. ColorSmart automatically selects the appropriate color settings for the document you are printing. This provides you with vivid color output without any changes to the driver. ═══ 45. Help for Form ═══ Use this field to select a particular form for a print job. Selecting the arrow displays a list containing the names of all forms defined for the printer. Select the form of your choice. Because you associate form names with a specific tray (in the Printer Properties window), selecting a form from this window causes the printer to feed paper from the appropriate tray, if loaded, or wait for the correct tray, if not loaded. ═══ 46. Help for Paper Feed ═══ Select one of the radio buttons to indicate the source for the paper form. The preselected choice, Automatic, means paper feeds from a tray without human intervention. Select Manual to have the printer wait for you to manually feed odd size forms, transparencies, or other media that should not feed from paper trays. If you select Manual, you are prompted to insert the paper before the printer processes each page of a job. Select Automatic mixedto use one form for the first page of your document, and a different form for subsequent pages. The type of form for Automatic or Manual paper feed is selected in the Form list. Selecting Automatic mixedcauses two lists to appear. One form is selected in the First pagelist and a different form in the Remaining pages list. For a detailed explanation of each list, select from the list below: o Form o First page o Remaining pages * ═══ 47. Help for 1 or 2 Sided Printing ═══ If your printer has the capability to print on both sides of a page, you can select one of the radio buttonsin this field. 1 sided, the preselected choice prints pages on one side only. 2 sided bookprints on both sides, with the top line on each page in the same location. 2 sided flip prints on both sides of the paper, but the top line on the back page corresponds to the top line of the front page. ═══ 48. Help for Custom Color Adjustments ═══ Use Custom Color Adjustments to modify the color mode, halftone, gamma, lightness, and saturation. These adjustments can be set seperately for text, vector and bitmap graphics. For a detailed explanation of each field, select from the list below: o Color Mode o Halftone o Lightness o Saturation o Gamma (Color Balance) o Defaults o OK ═══ 49. Help for Default ═══ If default selected, the color defaults are used. ═══ 50. Help for Color Mode ═══ No Adjustment - Prints the colors specified by your application using the current halftone settings; also uses full 24-bit color representations. This prevents the printer driver from adjusting the colors you specify within your application. Vivid Color - Produces bright, sharp colors using full 24-bit color representations. The vividness of the color output is optimized based on the data type. This option should provide the best output in most cases. Process Blue - The primary blue (called Primary Process Blue) printed by most color printers often appears purplish. This option produces the same results as the Vivid Color option, except for changes to blues. If you prefer blue closer to the blue displayed on your monitor, select the Vivid Color option. 8 Solid Colors - Selects eight colors that appear solid (that is, not dithered): red, green, blue, cyan, magenta, yellow, black, and white (assuming the paper is white). 8 Solid Colors uses 4-bit color representations. Black and White - Produces a gray-scale mapping of colors much like those used by a black and white television displaying a color broadcast. Adjustments can be made to the halftone settings that will affect the black and white printout. Black and White uses 1-bit color representations. Different halftone methods used for dithering can be selected by the Halftone option. NOTE: Thin lines and small type sizes (less than 18 points) may not print well using mixed colors. If your output is unsatisfactory, choose primary colors for these objects, or set Color Control to 8 Solid Colors for the appropriate group (Text, Graphics, or Bitmaps). Color Mode can be set separately for Text, Vector and Bitmap Graphics. ═══ 51. Help for Color Representations ═══ 24-bit color means 16.7 millions colors can be displayed. 8-bit color means 256 colors can be displayed. 4-bit color means 16 colors can be displayed. 1-bit color means monochrome (black/white) is displayed. ═══ 52. Help for Color Halftone ═══ The printer uses many small colored dots to represent the light and dark areas of an image. This is called halftoning. Halftoning allows us, through a combination of toner, to make a wide range of colors from 4 toner colors. The Halftone dialog choices let you select the halftone patterns for Text, Graphics, and Bitmap images. Cluster - Groups ink dots together. This sometimes gives a lower contrast than other dithering methods. Good for line-art, images with distinct edges, and documents to be photocopied. Scatter (Normal) - Uses an algorithm to produce the appearance of a random distribution of ink dots. Good for scanned images and photos. Scatter is mainly used when printing scanned images. Pattern - Uniformly distributes the dots. This sometimes produces noticeable geometric patterns. Use Pattern for free-hand images, clip art, complex graphics, desktop publishing images, and color text. Scatter (High Quality)- For bitmap group only. Scatters more color dots than Normal scatter. This gives the best results when printing photos. EXAMPLES OF TEXT OUTPUT Cluster Halftone: Scatter Halftone: Pattern Halftone: EXAMPLES OF VECTOR GRAPHIC OUTPUT Cluster Halftone: Scatter Halftone: Pattern Halftone: EXAMPLES OF BITMAP OUTPUT Cluster Halftone: Scatter Halftone: Pattern Halftone: Scatter High Halftone: NOTE: Thin lines and small type sizes (less than 18 points) may not print well using mixed colors. If your output is unsatisfactory, choose primary colors for these objects, or set Color Control to 8 Solid Colors for the appropriate group (Text, Graphics, or Bitmaps). Halftone mode can be set separately for Text, Vector and Bitmap Graphics. ═══ 53. Help for Color Lightness ═══ Lightness - Lightens or darkens the colors for a group. Lightness settings range from -50 to +50, and apply to all colors. The default setting is 0, which leaves the output unaffected. Values greater than zero make colors lighter, values less than 0 make colors darker. Adjust this knob to increase or decrease the values. This adjustment will depend upon the printer's capabilities. ═══ 54. Help for Color Saturation ═══ Saturation - Increases or decreases the color intensities for a group. Saturation settings range from -50 to +50. The default setting is 0, which leaves the output unaffected. Values greater than zero make colors more intense, while values less than zero make colors less intense. Adjust this knob to increase or decrease the values. This adjustment will depend upon the printer's capabilities. ═══ 55. Help for Gamma (Color Balance) ═══ Gamma (Color Balance)- Lightens the midtones for all colors enhancing details lost in the shadows to midtones, or darkens the midtones for all colors enhancing the details lost in the midtones to highlights. This adjustment will depend upon the printer's capabilities. ═══ 56. Help for Define Forms ═══ In this window, you can add, delete, or change the size of named forms defined for this printer. 1. To add a form, type a unique form name. 2. Specify the units in which you prefer to see measurements: inches or centimeters. 3. Select the arrow to display the size list, then select the size you want to assign to the name. To delete a form, erase its name. For a detailed explanation of each field, select from the list below: o Name o Size o Units o Custom paper size o OK o Cancel ═══ 57. Help for Name ═══ In this field, type a unique name for a new form. You can use up to 22 characters. You can delete a form definition by deleting the contents of the Name field. ═══ 58. Help for Size ═══ This field expands to a list containing form size descriptions. Select the arrow to see the contents of the list. Sizes are shown with measurements in inches or centimeters, depending upon the Unitsselected. You use the list to assign a form size to the identifier in the Name field at the left. Select your choice from the listed sizes. ═══ 59. Help for Units ═══ Select one of the radio buttons to indicate whether you prefer the form size displayed in inches or centimeters. ═══ 60. Help for Custom paper size ═══ Custom paper size allows a form to be printed on something other than the standard pre-defined paper sizes. The width and length fields have minimum and maximum limits determined by the capability of the specified printer. Note: The minimum values for width and length fields are defaulted, whenever the units change. Also, the width and length fields must be selected or the fields default to the minimum values. ═══ 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. Resolution can be adjusted for some printers. Low-resolution images are printed faster, but appear coarser than high-resolution images. A printer's memory size can limit the resolution you can choose. ═══ 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. ═══ 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. Contrast with check box. ═══ downloaded font ═══ A soft font copied (downloaded) to the memory of a printer. ═══ soft font ═══ Optional fonts shipped as files. Soft fonts must be installed onto the hard disk before they can be selected from programs. See also downloaded font. ═══ default ═══ A value, attribute, or option that is assumed when another is not explicitly specified. ═══ file name ═══ A name assigned or declared for a file. The file name includes an extension (if there is one). If you are using HPFS, the file name can be up to 254 characters and can include any number of periods. The following is an example of a path and file name in the HPFS file system where C: is the drive, the first \ is the root, INCOME is the directory, and SALES.FIGURES.FOR.SEPTEMBER is the file name: C:\INCOME\SALES.FIGURES.FOR.SEPTEMBER If you are using the FAT file system, the file name can be up to eight characters and can be followed by an optional three-character extension. The following is an example of a path and file name in the FAT file system where C: is the drive, the first \ is the root, INCOME is the directory, TAX is a subdirectory, and SALES.TXT is the file name and extension: C:\INCOME\TAX\SALES.TXT ═══ queue ═══ A list of jobs waiting to print or plot at a particular print destination. See also spooling and spooler ═══ 61. Help for Device Defaults ═══ Use Device defaults to request multiple copies, specify orientation, resolution, performance options, and elect to downloadsystem fonts. You can select a tray-loaded form or indicate that you will feed forms by hand, and specify output bin if your printer has more than one place for holding printed pages. You also can select dual-sided printing for printer models offering this feature. Some programs display a similar window, enabling you to assign these types of properties for a specific document or template. You can also set up default job properties for a particular print queue. When setting up a printer driver, you select device defaultsthat take effect if neither the queue nor the program supplies job properties. For a detailed explanation of each field, select from the list below: o Copies o Orientation o Fast system fonts o Printer patterns o HP-GL/2 o Large buffers o Resolution o Form o First page o Remaining pages o Paper feed. o 1 or 2 sided printing o Output bin o RET o Economode o ImageAdapt o Effects o OK ═══ 62. Help for Output Bin ═══ Select the appropriate radio buttonto indicate where you want the printer to route your printed pages. You only use this field if your printer has more than one output bin. ═══ 63. Help for Effects ═══ Select Effects if you want to install or select patterns. ═══ 64. Help for LaserJet Printer Display Messages ═══ Use Printer Display Message to personalize messages displayed on the printer's control panel. For a detailed explanation of each field, select from the list below: o Online Display o Offline Display o Defaults o OK o Cancel ═══ 65. Help for Online Display ═══ Check this field to put a message on the printer's control panel while keeping the printer online. The message can be any combination of printable characters (except quotation marks, ASCII 34) and spaces, with a limit of 1 line of 16 characters. This message replaces the lowest priority "00 READY" message. If any higher priority message is displayed (for example, toner low, or printer open), the new personalized message does not appear until these outstanding conditions are cleared. Some HP LaserJet printers may have a different limit for the number of display lines and number of display characters. Since this message leaves the printer online, it can be used to display the name of the person printing the current job, or other pertinent information while a job is printing. You can also keep your message displayed on the printer's control panel after the job is printed. ═══ 66. Help for Offline Display ═══ Check this field to put a message on the printer's control panel and take the printer offline. This message will display on the printer and halt printing until the operator presses the On Line, Continue, or Reset key of the printer. The message can be any combination of printable characters (except quotation marks, ASCII 34) and spaces, with a limit of 1 line of 16 characters. The first two display characters blink. To avoid blinking, you can begin your message with two blank spaces. Since this message takes the printer offline, it can be used to display what type of paper should be inserted before the job is printed ("LOAD LETTERHEAD", "LOAD BLUE PAPER", "LOAD PLAIN PAPER" are good examples). If "00 READY" is specified on the Offline Message, the defaultsettings are automatically enabled. ═══ 67. Help for Display Defaults ═══ This sets the default message to "00 READY" and online. ═══ 68. Help for Job Display ═══ Check this field to keep the display message on the printer's control panel after the job has been printed. The display message will appear on the printer's control panel until another print job specifies a different message, or until the reset button is pressed. ═══ 69. Help for LaserJet Printing Effects ═══ This window has two sections. Use the fields in the top half of the window to select the patterns you want for filling the characters in a print job and for the background behind those characters. For example, you might select gray shading to fill the characters, or diagonal lines to fill the page behind the characters. Your printer has 15 predefined patterns. Use the User Defined Patternsfields in the lower half of the window to install additional patterns. For a detailed explanation of each field, select from the list below: o Pattern mode o Pattern o Background (destination) o New patterns directory o New patterns o Installed patterns o OK o Open o Add o Delete o Cancel ═══ 70. Help for Pattern Mode ═══ Use this field to indicate whether you want the background pattern from your job to show within the borders of the characters. Select the Opaque radio buttonif you do not want the background pattern to mix with the pattern of the characters. (If you do not select a pattern for the characters, they appear as either all black or all white.) Select the Transparent radio button if you want the background pattern to mix with the character pattern or gray tone. ═══ 71.

To see the other patterns that are currently installed on your system, select the arrow to the right of the field. Each time you select a different pattern, a picture of that pattern appears in the box to the right of the field. Your printer has 15 predefined patterns and shades of gray, including black and white. You can install additional patterns. ═══ 72. Help for Background (Destination) ═══ This field shows the pattern currently selected to fill the page behind the characters for your print jobs. Next to the Background (destination) field is a box that has a picture of the pattern. To see the other patterns that are currently installed on your system, select the arrow to the right of the field. Each time you select a different pattern, a picture of that pattern appears in the box to the right of the field. Your printer has 15 predefined patterns and shades of gray, including black and white. You can install additional patterns. ═══ 73. Help for New Patterns Directory ═══ Use this field to indicate the location of pattern files you want to install. Usually, you install new patterns from a diskette, so the field contains the initial value A:\. You can type a different path, if, for example, you create your own patterns and store them on your hard disk. ═══ 74. Help for New Patterns ═══ This field displays file namesfor patterns stored in the New patterns directory. To fill the list: 1. Insert the appropriate diskette in drive A, or fill in the New patterns directory field with the location of the patterns on your hard disk. 2. Select Open. You can scroll the list to see more pattern files names. Select any you want to install, then select Add to add the selected patterns to the Installed patterns field. ═══ 75. Help for Installed Patterns ═══ This list contains the file namescontaining the patterns currently installed and available for selection in the Pattern and Background (destination)fields. ═══ 76.
