Application hints
For information about using specific software applications with your
printer, contact Tektronix' HAL or EuroHAL information systems. In the
U.S., call 1-800-835-6100 or (503) 682-7450; for EuroHAL telephone numbers,
refer to "If you need help" on page 7-1. For a complete listing of available
topics, request a catalog.
Tektronix supplies and software
Always use Tektronix supplies to ensure the highest quality prints and
printer performance. Do not use any media designed for inkjet printers,
especially inkjet coated paper and inkjet transparencies. Inkjet media are
coated with a substance that will damage the fuser; Tektronix does not
furnish service for damage or malfunction caused by the use of
non-Tektronix supplies or consumables. Always use Tektronix-brand coated
paper and transparencies that have been specially designed for use with
Tektronix Color Laser Printers.
Tektronix Printer Description Files (PPDs) and utility files work with the
drivers to provide the best access to printer features. See page 9-2 for
ordering information.
Getting the largest printed picture
To get the largest printed picture, keep in mind the following:
The area of media that the Phaser 560 prints on is smaller than the
size of the media (refer to "Margins and print area" on page 4-31
for more details). You may have to adjust the margins in your
application software.
The correct-sized image for the media
Make sure that the image you are printing is smaller than the size
of the selected media (for example, when printing on envelopes).
