3. Select from the following options:
• High Speed Copies
speeds up printing of multiple copies of the
same document using hard disk space as a cache. If you have
multiple hard drives, you can select a high speed copy folder for
storing copies.
• Show Progress Meter
lets you control whether or not the Progress
Meter is displayed when you send a print job.
• EPSON Printer Port
(Windows 95, 98, or Me parallel connection
only) lets you optimize the transfer rate of your printer port for
EPSON printers instead of using the Windows default printer port.
You may see one of these messages beneath the
EPSON Printer
Port
option:
High speed (DMA) transfer enabled
tells you that you’re already
using fast DMA transfer mode.
For higher data transfer rates, use DMA transfer
lets you know
that you can speed up printing by enabling DMA transfers on your
system. See your electronic Reference Guide for instructions on using
DMA transfers, if your computer supports them. For more
information, see your computer documentation or contact your
computer manufacturer’s technical support. If you see no message,
you cannot enable DMA transfers.
• Always spool RAW datatype
(Windows 2000, XP, and NT only)
lets you spool documents using the RAW format instead of the
EMF (metafile) format. Because the RAW format requires fewer
resources, printing is faster and you can avoid certain problems,
such as insufficient memory or disk space.
