PRINTER TYPE
Setup up the type of printer used with the GP unit.
Use either EPSON option for 24 dot printers, and the HP-LaserJet Series
option for PCL4 compatible printers.
PRINT (only GP-577R)
Designates whether the printer prints in Gray scale or Color.
With Gray-scale selected, the printout of Blue and Green, Cyan and Red, and
Purple and Yellow will appear with the same pattern.
• The HP-LaserJet Series does not support GP color printouts.
Always setup as GRAY SCALING.
• Choosing Gray-Scale will reduce the 64 colors to simplified
grays. This will effectively eliminate pale or pastel colors.
BLACK/WHITE REVERSE (only GP-577R)
This setup reverses the screen colors from white on black (Fg/Bg) to black
on white for screen printouts. The screen background on the GP is black,
but it is easier to see screen objects on the hardcopy when Reverse is ON so
the screen prints white.
E.g. When the GP screen background is black and the fore-
ground is white, the printout appears as follows.
Print w/ Reverse ON Print w/ Reverse OFF
2. SET UP PRINTER
• The previous setup is only for printing a hard copy of the
screen image. When an Alarm report is printed, no matter
what this setting is, it will print as if REVERSE is ON.
