Print Preview
The Print Preview feature allows you to pause the fast display for closer waveform inspection or printing. No
function other than printing is available when in Print Preview mode. All oscilloscope analysis functions
(such as measurement calculations) are also paused.
There are three ways to invoke Print Preview:
l On the Utilities > Utilities Setup > Hardcopy dialog, check the box labeled Preview on Print. This
configures the front panel Print button button so that the first press puts the oscilloscope into Print
Preview mode, and the second press prints the screen image according to the Hardcopy setup.
l On the Utilities > Utilities Setup > Hardcopy dialog, touch the Preview button above the Print button.
l From the menu bar, choose File > Print Preview. A green checkmark appears next to the menu option
to show you are in Preview mode.
Following any of these actions, you should see the message "Print preview" appear in red at the right of the
message bar.
When you go on to print the screen, you will see the message "Hardcopy saved to..." (or "Printing started..." if
sending to a printer) at the left of the message bar.
Operating any other dialog or front panel control ends the Print Preview and resumes acquisition processing.
