Introduction
This chapter briefly describes printer documentation and introduces
the features and benefits of the QMS-PS 410 printer, including how
your printer works with application software, how it receives and
processes data, and how it transforms data into a printed page.
About the Manuals
Three manuals are included with your printer: the QMS-PS 410
Getting Started Guide, the QMS-PS 410 User’s Guide (this
manual), and the QMS-PS 410 PS Executive Series Utilities User’s
Guide (which accompanies the utilities software). First you should
read the Getting Started Guide, and follow its instructions for
unpacking the printer, setting it up, and connecting it to a host
computer system. Probably you will not need to refer to the Getting
Started Guide again; after the initial setup, refer to this manual, the
printer user’s guide, for information about printer features,
operation, and maintenance.
Both this manual and the Getting Started Guide refer you
periodically to a third manual, the PS Executive Series Utilities
User’s Guide. You use the utilities, a menu-driven software
program designed specifically for your printer, to configure the
printer and access its capabilities. (You may be able to perform
some, but not all, of the utilities’ functions through your application
software.) The PS Executive Series Utilities manual explains how
to install and use the program on a Macintosh or a PC.
To find information in the manuals, refer to the index, and use the
table of contents at the beginning of each manual and the more
detailed table of contents at the beginning of each chapter.
