Click Next in this dialog to see the Print Options window where output creation settings are
selected.
Print Options
The Print Options page is the first page of both the Advanced Print Wizard (used for both
Production and Proof printing) and the Output Preset Creation Wizard.
This first page is the most important of the Advanced Print Wizard/Output Creation Preset
Wizard.
All other pages that appear throughout the Wizard are determined by the selections made on
this page.
The choices can be broken down as follows:
l
Printer group:
l
Model: Use the drop-down to select the printer language / output type that will be
generated.
Connect output options cover a range of industry standard print output types.
These include AFP, IPDS, PCL, PDF and PostScript (including PPML, VIPP and
VPS variants), with a range of quality settings available.
Models for all these print output streams are included with Connect. By default,
Connect initially displays just the PDF output option, to keep the interface clean. But
other print output types can be added to the Printer Model drop down list at any time
via the Settings button
You can also add any customized Printer Model that Objectif Lune Inc. has
prepared for you, specific to your printer.
Or you can create your own customized PostScript Printer Model through the printer
manufacturer provided PostScript Printer Definition (PPD) file. This will launch the
"Dynamic PPD Options" on page682 page later in the PrinterWizard.
For more information on how to add Printer Models to Connect, see "Adding print
output models to the Print Wizard" on page796.
