Print Settings: Windows Only
Click on Printer to display a list of your available printers. After you have
selected a printer, you can click on Properties to select the standard Windows
print settings for that printer.
Note: If you are using Windows 95 with certain printer drivers, you may
experience difficulty printing some overlays and overlay symbols on
images. While there is no single solution to this problem, you should try
adjusting some settings in the Printer Properties dialog box, under the
Graphics and Advanced tabs—specifically, the Dithering, DPI,
Rasterizing, and RET settings.
Select the paper orientation by clicking on Portrait or Landscape next to the
Layout prompt. (This can also be set in the Properties dialog box.)
Indicate how many copies should be printed in the text box next to the Copies
prompt.
When you are satisfied with all the print parameters, click on the OK button
to send the image to the printer.
Print Settings: Macintosh Only
Specify a font size for the image title in the text box next to the Font Size
prompt. You can use font sizes ranging from 6 to 64, but we recommend you
use the default setting of 12.0.
Click on the Go button to send the image to the printer.
20.1.b Print Actual Size
You can print your images at their actual size using the Print Actual Size
command.
Note: If you are using the Gel Doc, Chemi Doc, Fluor-S, or Fluor-S MAX, you
must specify the correct image area size when capturing your images to
ensure accurate 1:1 printing. You can specify the image area size in the
acquisition window for the instrument. See the chapter on each imaging
device for more information.
