printer driver name. Select it then click Install from the menu
options.

In the Install New Printer Driver dialog box, click on the button
according to the driver shipped with OS/2. If necessary, set the
directory to B: and insert the Printer Diskette #1 in drive B:. Click on
Refresh. The system searches the diskette for driver groups and
prompts you to stop the search or continue. When the PostScript
driver (PSCRPT.DRV) appears, stop the search.

Using the scroll bars, move down through the alphabetical listing until
you find the selection PSCRIPT.Tektronix Phaser 550. Click on the
correct printer name and then click on Install. The system will install
your printer driver. Click OK.
9. Close the Install New Printer Driver dialog box. Before leaving the
Create a Printer dialog box, adjust the printer port time-out setting.
Double-click on the port you have selected, in this example, LPT2.

To create the new printer object on the desktop, click Create; a new
printer driver object is placed on your desktop. Confirm and adjust
the settings for this printer driver by performing the following steps.
a. Bring up the Settings Notebook by clicking the right mouse
button on LPT2 PRINTER. Click on SETTINGS.
b.
Select the Printer Driver Tab. Confirm that the Tektronix
Phaser 550 is selected (highlighted). Double-click on the Phaser
550 driver to configure the Printer Properties. This is where you
can define printer paper sizes and orientation. These settings can
be adjusted from within software applications as well. To get
started, set Forms to A-size paper; this is the recommended setting.
Next, select Device Defaults, set Form to A-size and set
Orientation to Landscape. One of the most likely causes of
printer errors is that the document and device defaults do not
properly match.

Select Options and make sure that it is properly set to Phaser 550;
if not, repeat the previous steps. While in this screen, set Job and
Wait to 0, if they aren't already. Click OK on the Options and
Device Defaults dialogs for Printer Properties. Select the Output
Tab. Ensure that the proper port is selected.
