ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1. Help for Layout ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

The Layout dialog (also known as n-up), allows you to print several pages on a
sheet of paper.  The pages are arranged on a specific number of rows and
columns.  To make reading easier, a border may be displayed on the edge of each
page.

The right hand side of the dialog contains a white rectangle that displays a
sample page of how the output might look.  Each line on the sample page
represents a line of text.  You will also notice the indents for 'paragraphs'.
As you change the number of pages, the sample page will also change to reflect
how the output might look.  If Print page border is selected, then the sample
will display borders around each page.

For more information of specific controls, select one of the following:

     Number of pages/sheet
     Print page border
     Undo
     Defaults


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 2. Help for Number of pages/sheet ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

This listbox contains the number of pages that may be printed on a single sheet
of paper.  The default value is one page per sheet.

When a value is selected, the sample page will show how the output may look.

You may only select one of the values listed.  You cannot enter your own value.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 3. Help for Print page border ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

If selected, then a border will be printed around the edge of each page on the
sheet of paper.  This is so that it is easier to identify each page.  If it is
not selected, then no border(s) will be printed.

This checkbox is disabled if one (1) page per sheet is selected and the border
will not be printed.

If selected, the sample page will display how the border will look for the
output.

back page corresponds to the top line of the front page.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 13. Staple Output ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Select "Staple output" to staple a multiple-page print job.

When "Staple output" is selected, the output bin is automatically set to the
stapling bin. If a different bin is then selected, the "Staple output" checkbox
is turned off.

Stapler Limitations:

  - Stapling is supported in only one bin.

  - The stapling bin has a capacity to staple up to 20 sheets per job, storing
a total of 500 sheets in the bin.

  - Transparencies and Envelopes cannot be stapled.

  - Stapling is limited to letter and A4 paper sizes.

  - The stapler can handle 16 lb. to 28 lb. paper.

Documents greater than 20 pages will be placed unstapled in the stapling bin.
Single page documents will also be placed in the staple bin unstapled.  If
unsupported paper types or sizes are sent to the stapler, the job will most
likely result in a paper jam.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 14. Input Tray ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Select "Auto Select" to use the paper in the trays. The printer decides which
paper and which tray based on the form selected here, and the "Tray/Paper
Setup" settings in "Setup" page of the Printer Settings Notebook.

Select "Manual Feed" to print on odd sized forms, transparencies, or other
media that do not normally feed from the paper trays.  With this option, the
printer will prompt you to enter paper into the manual-feed tray.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 15. Subsequent Tray ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

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.

You may define additional forms using the "User Defined Forms.." pushbutton in
the "Setup" page of the Printer Settings Notebook.

All forms appear on the "Setup" page in the Printer Settings Notebook. On this
page, specify which forms are loaded into which trays in the printer.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 18. Media type ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Printed matter type selection.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 19. Subsequent media ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Printed matter type selection.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 20. Output options ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Some printers have multiple output trays. The printer can route printed pages
to the tray of your choice.

Select an output tray from the list shown in the Output options window.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 21. Options Page ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

LaserJet printers have features that speed up printing and/or enhance print
quality. Specify these options on this page.

Note: Selecting these options may change the appearance of the output. Decide
for yourself if a gain in performance and/or print quality is worth some
variability in the printed output.

For example, a lower graphics resolution speeds up printing, but it reduces the
quality of the output.

For an explanation of these options, select from the list below:

     Graphics resolution
     HP-GL/2
     PCL6 Enhanced
     Fast system fonts
     Large buffers
     Monochrome Intensity
     Ink
     ImageAdapt
     RET
     Economode
     Printer Display
     Undo
     Default


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 22. Graphics resolution ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Select the dots per inch (DPI) for the resolution of the print job.

Select the highest number for the best quality.  Because printing in high
resolution takes longer, you may choose a lower resolution for drafts and the
highest resolution for final 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.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 23. PCL6 Enhanced ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Select PCL6 Enhanced to enable the PCL6 performance option in the printer.

PCL6 is the new Hewlett-Packard Imaging Language. This feature will allow
better printing performance with complex graphics.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 24. HP-GL/2 ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Select HP-GL/2 to enable the HP-GL/2 performance option in the printer.

HP-GL/2 is the Hewlett-Packard Graphical Language used on plotters. This
feature will allow faster printing of lines, circles, and pie charts.

When printing very complex HP-GL/2 images, HP printers might report error 21,
print overrun, on the front panel of the printer or the printer may produce
incorrect output or graphics orders.  When incorrect output has been generated,
turn off the HP-GL/2 option.  In the case of the error 21, turn off the HP-GL/2
option on the Options Page of the driver, or enable Page Protection on the
"Memory" page of the Printer Settings.

Adding memory to the printer may also correct error 21.

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 Setup Page, then use
HP-GL/2.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 25. Fast system fonts ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Select Fast system fonts to enable downloading of OS/2 system fonts. System
fonts will be copied to the printer memory which allows your job to print
faster.

This feature should not be used when overlaying system fonts with graphics as
text may not always appear.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 26. Large buffers ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

For computers with at least 8 MB of memory, printing speed will increase by
using large buffers.

For computers with less than 8 MB of memory, do not use large buffers.

The large buffers option is available for certain 600 DPI or color printers.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 27. Monochrome Intensity ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Use Monochrome Intensity to adjust the darkness of monochrome images.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 28. Ink Quality ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

This option is used to vary the amount of ink applied to your output media.
This option is used within the ink-jet family of printers.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 29. ImageAdapt ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

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 three 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.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 30. RET ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

RET stands for Resolution Enhancement Technology.  This is a feature found in
certain Hewlett-Packard printers including Series III, 4, and 5 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.)


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 31. Economode ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

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 two settings, on or off. The factory default setting is off.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 32. Printing Effects ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Use this page 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.

It is also possible to install additional patterns.

Additional information is available:

Use this field to indicate whether you want the background pattern from your
job to show within the borders of the characters.  Select "Opaque" if 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 (watermark concept).


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 34. Pattern ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

This field shows the pattern currently selected to fill the characters for your
print jobs.  Next to the Pattern 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. See Printer Settings.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 35. Background (Destination) ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

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.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 36. New Patterns Directory ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Use this window to indicate the location of the pattern files you want to
install. These files have PCL file type (extension).

Enter the directory name, then press the Open button.

If you install new patterns from a diskette, enter

       A:\

Diskettes are slow. To speed up installation, you can copy the *.PCL files to a
subdirectory on the hard disk, then install patterns from there.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 37. Open ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Press the Open button to read pattern files from the drive and directory
identified in the New Patterns Directory window.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 38. New Patterns ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Check this field to put a message on the printer's control panel while the job
is printing. Use it to display the name of the person printing the current job,
or other pertinent information while the job is printing.

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.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 44. Take printer offline, then show message ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Check this field to put a message on the printer's control panel, then 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.

Since the printer goes offline, use this feature to display what type of paper
should be inserted before the job is printed. For example, "LOAD LETTERHEAD" or
"LOAD BLUE PAPER."

The message can be any combination of printable characters (except quotation
marks) 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.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 45. Show message always ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Check this field to put the personalized message on the printer's control panel
at all times, even after the job is printed. The message will remain until
another print job specifies a different message, or until the reset button is
pressed.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 46. Color Modes ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Your printer supports color. Use this page to specify/adjust color or grayscale
printing.

If you specify manual color, you may manually adjust the color and dithering
used for text, graphics, and photo images. The manual controls can be accessed
by selecting the Color Options pushbutton.

For a detailed explanation of each field, select from the list below:

     Automatic
     Manual
     Print in Grayscale
     Undo
     Default


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 47. Automatic (ColorSmart) ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

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.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 48. Manual ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Lets you change the printer's color settings for text, graphics, and photo
images. Select the Color Options pushbutton to change the color settings.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 49. Grayscale ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Prints all text, graphics, and photo images in shades of gray. If "Automatic"
is selected, it uses the HP ColorSmart settings (such as Halftone) to process
the document.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 50. Custom Color Adjustments ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Use Custom Color Adjustments Page to modify the color mode, halftone,
saturation and lightness. These adjustments can be set separately for text,
graphics and photo images.

For a detailed explanation of each field, select from the list below:

     Color Mode
     Halftone
     Lightness
     Saturation
     Undo
     Default


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 51. Color Mode ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

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 Photos).

Color Mode can be set separately for Text, Graphic and Photo images.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 52. Color Representations ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

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.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 53. Color Halftone ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

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 Photo 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 photo group only. Scatters more color dots than
Normal scatter. This gives the best results when printing photos.

Basic - Produces simple images that have large areas of a single color.

Smooth - Produces a sharper image than the Basic option. Use the Smooth option
for images that require an even distribution of color.

Detail - Produces a sharper image than the Smooth option. Use this option for
images that require a high level of detail or show a pattern within colors.

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 Photos).

Halftone mode can be set separately for Text, Graphics and Photo images. The
halftone mode images will be grayscaled if "Print in Grayscale" is checked.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 54. Color Lightness ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

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.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 55. Color Saturation ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

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.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 56. Gamma (Color Balance) ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

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.

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 100. HP LaserJet and HP LaserJet-Compatible Printers ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

The LASERJET.DRV supports HP LaserJet** printers using Printer Control Language
(PCL), and three device font types:

     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.
     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.
     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.
     Soft fonts are 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. After exiting the Font Installer window, on the Fonts Page, 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.
