Using the Printer Software
Changing the printer driver settings
Your printer driver has four menus: Paper, Graphics, Device
Options, and Utility. For an overview of the available settings, see
“Printer Driver Settings Overview” on page 3-11. You can also
view online help by right-clicking items in the driver and selecting
What’s this?.
When you finish making printer driver settings, click OK to apply
the settings, or click Restore Defaults to return the settings to
their default values.
Once you have checked your printer driver settings and made any
necessary changes, you are ready to print.
Using the Printer Driver with Windows 3.1
Printer software for Windows 3.1 is only available for LX-300+.
You can access the printer driver from your Windows
applications or from the Control Panel.
When you access the printer driver from a Windows application,
any settings you make apply only to the application you are using.
When you access the printer driver from the Control Panel, the
printer driver settings you make apply to all your applications.
To check and change printer driver settings, see “Changing the
printer driver settings” on page 3-5.
Note:
While many Windows applications override the settings made with the
printer driver, some do not, so you must verify that the printer driver
settings match your requirements.
