USB Versus Parallel: Windows
Installation instructions are included for both USB and
parallel connections. Oki Data recommends using a USB
connection, as your printer is performance optimized for a
USB interface.
Printer Drivers Available
Which Printer Driver?
Your printer comes with Windows drivers for PCL and
Postscript. You can install either driver or both, depending
on your application.
When to Use the PCL Driver
If you use TrueType fonts and you do not print PostScript
graphics (including ".eps" files), choose the PCL driver.
This will be more efficient and give good results.
When to Use the Postscript Emulation
Driver
If you use PostScript fonts or you will be printing PostScript
graphics, choose the Postscript emulation driver.
Performance will be faster and graphics will be printed at
their best quality.
When to Install Both Drivers
If your applications vary, you could choose to install both
drivers, then select the one you plan to use most to be your
Windows default driver. Choose the alternate driver from
within the print dialog when you need to.
If you install both drivers, simply select the same printer
port (LPT1 or Network Port) during the installation.
Readme File
Please refer to the readme file on the Drivers CD
supplied with your printer for the latest information on
printer drivers.
