Print using (Windows)
|
The Print using pop-up menu allows you to choose between printing an image or saving the image to disk. It has from two to four options, depending on your system configuration:
- TCP/IP
This option is available if a TCP/IP stack is installed and running. After you select this option, you can choose a printer from the Printer name pop-up menu. You can add printers to the list, delete printers from the list, as well as edit a printer's configuration.
This is the fastest printing method and almost always prints your jobs in much less time than the Parallel Port or Printer Driver methods. This is the recommended method if it is available for the printer you are using.
- Local Port
This option is available if you have any local ports installed in your PC. After you select this option, you can choose the desired printer port from the Port Name pop-up menu.
- Printer Driver
This option prints the image through the selected printer driver. After you select this option, you can choose a printer from the Driver name pop-up menu.
- PostScript file
This option lets you save an image to disk as a PostScript Level 2 file. When you click the Save button, another dialog box appears allowing you to choose a new or existing file for saving the PostScript code.
When you select this option, the File format pop-up menu becomes available. This pop-up menu has two options: ASCII base-85 and Binary.
ASCII base-85. If you choose this option, the image data is encoded using an ASCII base-85 filter during file output, making the resulting PostScript file portable so it can be downloaded through interface ports that don't support binary data. Note that the file may be up to 25% larger.
Binary. If this you choose this option, image data is output in binary format.
