How to Use the machine with Your DOS Application Software
Before working with your application software that runs on DOS, check that the machine’s name
appears in the printer selection of your application software. If the machine is not listed, you must
install the printer driver that corresponds to HP LaserJet 5P’s emulations.
The following table shows the combination of printer driver and emulation mode. To get the most
out of this machine, you should install an HP printer driver in your application software.
• Be sure to choose the proper printer driver in your application software.
• Be sure the printing resolution is set to 600 dpi in your DOS application software.
What Does the Remote Printer Console Do?
The Remote Printer Console (RPC) is a utility program that can run in the DOS environment:
This program allows you to change various printer settings such as emulation, print quality, fonts,
page setup etc., from your computer screen. Since most DOS applications have a Printer Settings
menu that overrides the settings made by the RPC, you may not have to use this utility program. This
utility program is useful for application software that does not control the printer’s settings and
features.
Installing the Remote Printer Console

the program:
