User's Guide 8-4 PCRIP-EZ1
WINDOWS 3.1 AND WINDOWS 95 CONFIGURATION
Step 1.
Insert the Utility Disk in drive A.
Step 2.
In Windows 3.1 Program Manager, under
File
, select
Run
. In Window 95, go to
Setting, Control Panel
and double click on the
Add/Remove Programs
icon. Type or confirm "
a:\setup
" when prompted for
the Program name and click
OK
. Follow the instructions in the Setup program. A new Program group
named Controller Configuration will be created with one program icon that represents the PCRIP-EZ1
Configuration.
Step 3.
Double click on the PCRIP-EZ1 Configuration icon. The program will ask for you to hit any key to
continue. The following Menu Bar will appear across the top of the screen:
File Page Install PC Port InputBufrs Special Help Quit
The "
Help
" Menu item explains the general function of each item in the menu bar. The first item on each
of the pull-down menus is context-sensitive help. This item describes the functions of all the other items
available on whatever pull-down menu you have open.
Step 4.
Using the right arrow key, highlight "
PC Port
" and <ENTER>. Menu items are:
Printer Port
LPT1, Printer Port LPT2, Printer Port to LOG file, and Printer Port to
NULL.
Step 5.
Use the up or down arrow keys to highlight the correct PC output port and <ENTER>. A cable connects
the Controller to a physical port on the back of the computer. The port selection should match the name of
this physical port. Any selection from any menu will move you back up to the main menu bar.
Step 6.
Using the left arrow key, highlight the "
Install
" pull-down menu and <ENTER>. Menu items are:
Enable AppleTalk, Disable AppleTalk, Reset to Factory Config, Print
Test File, Print Diagnostic Status Page, Save Configuration Changes.
You may use items from this menu to turn AppleTalk on or off, reset the Controller back to the original
factory settings, print a test page, print the diagnostic status page, or permanently save the configuration
settings you have made during this session. Use the up or down arrow keys to highlight your choice and
<ENTER>.
Step 7.
Using the left arrow key, highlight the "
Page
" pull-down menu and <ENTER>. Menu items are:
Page
Size A4, Page Size A4 (Short Drum), Page Size A3, Page Size B4, Page
Size B5, US Letter, US Letter (Short Drum), US Legal, US 11 X 17.
Normally you will not need to make any changes here since the PCRIP-EZ1 Controller printer drivers
automatically select page size.
Step 8.
Using the right arrow key, highlight the "
InputBufrs
" pull-down menu and <ENTER>. Menu items are:
Parallel Input Buffer Size = 0K, Parallel Input Buffer Size =
128K,
Parallel Input Buffer Size = 192K, Parallel Input Buffer Size =
256K,
Parallel Input Buffer Size = 512K.
You may also want to change the input buffers if you are connected to a PC. The larger the input buffer,
the faster your print job will be processed; however, there is a limited amount of memory to be allocated
to input buffers. If you have problems printing a A3/11x17 document with a PCRIP-EZ1, try changing the
input buffer size to 512K or upgrading the memory size.
