When to use the drivers

When to use the utility Þles
The Tektronix Phaser 220i and 220e Color Printers use Adobe's PostScript
Level 2 language. You can take advantage of the Level 2 features and special
color corrections by using one or more of the following methods:
A Tektronix printer driver
(Available for Macintosh and PC Windows applications)
The utility Þles
The printer's built-in color correction switches
Most Macintosh and Windows applications can take advantage of the
Tektronix drivers. Use the drivers to select printing options, such as media
size. In most cases you use the options in a driver's dialog box to select color
corrections. Refer to Chapter 6, ÒSelecting Color Corrections,Ó for details.
The utility Þles perform such tasks as color corrections, changing the printer
name, and printing a conÞguration page. Some of these adjustments change
the printer's default settings and are intended for use in the following cases:
With applications that don't use Tektronix drivers.
With applications that use their own drivers.
When printing the Tektronix color sampler charts.
When printing from a workstation.
