PCL 5C Printer Driver Features • Paper Source The Paper (Media) Source field enables you to select from the available paper trays on your DocuPrint NC60. If the Paper Source is set to Auto Select, the printer automatically selects a tray that matches the paper size settings for the job. The Auto Select setting is the default. This printer offers a variety of Paper Size and Media Type selections.
PCL 5C Printer Driver Features • Media Type This field contains a list of the media types that are supported by your DocuPrint NC60. — Paper: If no other media type is selected, paper is the default medium. — Transparencies: A sensor in the paper path of the DocuPrint NC60 detects the presence of transparencies. When transparencies are detected, the DocuPrint NC60 adjusts itself so that transparency print quality is enhanced.
PCL 5C Printer Driver Features • Front Cover Different Select this option when you would like the first page of your document to be printed on different paper stock. This setting enables you to specify the paper size or media type to be used for the front cover page of the document. • Separators (requires Tray 2, Lower Feeder option) The Separators feature enables you to specify whether paper separator pages will be inserted between each transparency sheet.
PCL 5C Printer Driver Features Collation Collated printing means that two or more copies of a document are printed and delivered as separate document sets, rather than separate sets of each page. Collation selected - 1,2,3; 1,2,3; 1,2,3 Collation not selected - 1,1,1; 2,2,2; 3,3,3 Keep in mind that collated output may vary based on the amount of memory in the printer, the optional equipment installed on the printer, and the complexity of your print jobs.
PCL 5C Printer Driver Features Hold Job Select Hold Job to delay printing for a set period of time. This enables you to get to the DocuPrint NC60 to load special media, or to print out confidential material. When you select this option, a message will remind you that you have a limited period of time to press the Enter button on the Control Panel in order to initiate the print activity. If you do not press the Enter button within the preset timeout, the job will be printed from the printer's memory.
PCL 5C Printer Driver Features Xerox Features Intelligent Color Intelligent Color produces bright, solid colors and should be used for documents with graphics that include charts and graphs. Use this setting for most full color business documents Photo Mode Photo Mode is the best color setting to use for photographs or bitmap images from photo CDs. Grayscale Grayscale changes all the colors for the document you select into black, white, and shades of gray.
PCL 5C Printer Driver Features Unadjusted Color Unadjusted uses your application settings and does not use any of the printer driver default settings. Use this print mode when your application or operating system has a color matching system (such as PANTONE or Image Color Matching). If you don't use Unadjusted print mode in conjunction with your color matching system, the colors may not be what you expect.
PCL 5C Printer Driver Features Enhanced Alignment If your documents contain black lines, or black text placed directly next to colored areas, you may want to select Enhanced Alignment. When used, your DocuPrint NC60 will automatically adjust itself to improve the black image alignment next to colored areas. Note that this feature is most valuable when black and colored areas directly touch. This feature will result in slower print speeds.
PCL 5C Printer Driver Features Graphics Font Options... • Download as TrueType TrueType fonts are vector-based, scalable typefaces that have been defined by Apple Computer Inc. • Download as Bit Image This option will download all fonts as raster-based, non-scalable typefaces. Large bitmap images require more memory and processing time. Use Printer Fonts This option instructs the DocuPrint NC60 to substitute the default printer fonts for any TrueType fonts it encounters within a print job.
PCL 5C Printer Driver Features Graphics Mode The Graphics Mode options specify how the printer driver sends graphic information to the DocuPrint NC60. These selections usually work in conjunction with the Image Quality and Gray Scale selections. • Raster converts images to raster graphics. • Vector requires less memory for some patterns and shapes. This selection is the system default.
PCL 5C Printer Driver Features Edit Click the Edit button if you need to change the name of a font that you are installing. If you purchase a disk-based font that has the same name as a font you are already using, you should change the name of the font because you cannot change the name of a printer resident PCL 5C font. Permanent Select Permanent if you want to save the font(s) onto the hard disk in the DocuPrint NC60. The fonts will be retained on the printer until they are deleted.
PCL 5C Printer Driver Features Copy Fonts to New Port If you are using more than one PCL 5C printer, or if you change the port your printer is connected to, you can use this feature to copy your installed disk-based fonts to the other printer on that port. To move or copy fonts to a new port: 1. Click the Copy Fonts To New Port button. 2. Select the port you want to use. 3. Click the OK button. 4. Select the fonts that you want to move or copy.
PCL 5C Printer Driver Features Overlays A Page Overlay is a group of user-created PCL commands and/or data that is downloaded and stored in the printer. Page overlays can be invoked repeatedly for printing portions of documents that are used frequently. For example, company letterhead can be created as a page overlay and stored in the printer. Whenever a letter is printed, the page overlay command for the letterhead can be sent to the printer, and the letterhead will be printed on each page.
PCL 5C Printer Driver Features Create Overlay Click the Create Overlay button when you want to create a Page Overlay file. This button invokes a dialog where you can specify the name of the overlay file and the location where it will be created. This will initiate the Overlay creation process. The next print job will create an overlay file to the file name and location specified. Delete Overlay Click the Delete Overlay button to delete an overlay from the list of overlays.
PCL 5C Printer Driver Features Printer Configuration The options on this tab enable you to configure your printer driver to match the options that are installed on your DocuPrint NC60. You should print a Configuration Sheet for your printer, check the current configuration and installed options, then modify the options on this tab to match the printer configuration. Some printer driver features require optional equipment to be installed on your printer and configured within the Installable Options list.
