Microsoft Windows 95, 98 and Windows NT Workstation Version 4.0

Alternate Printer Emulation Support

This printer supports HP LaserJet IIP printer emulation mode. When you
use DOS application software, you can use the emulation mode of HP
LaserJet IIP to operate the printer. Use the Remote Printer Console
program to set the printer emulation.

Remote Printer Console Program for DOS

The CD-ROM supplied with your machine provides you with Remote
Printer Console (RPC), a utility program. When you operate your
computer in the Disk Operating System (DOS) environment, this
program lets you easily change the printer's default settings (such as
fonts, page setup, emulations, etc.).
The RPC program also provides a status monitor program, a Terminate-
and-Stay Resident (TSR) program. It monitors the printer status while
running in the background, and reports the current status or errors on
your computer screen.
