Printer Settings

SuperScript 4400 printer settings give you many ways to
customize your print job. There is often more than one place
to change the same printer setting. These include
• The SuperScript PostScript 3 and PCL 5e printer drivers
• The Operator Panel on your printer

Using the Printer Operator Panel

You can use the printer Operator Panel to cancel a print job or
change settings that are not available in your printer driver.
You can view messages on the Operator Panel to help
diagnose printing problems. In addition, the printer operator
panel allows you to print out font lists and test pages and
view the total page count. You can also set the printer's TCP/
IP address or reconfigure network settings. Chapter 5, "The
Operator Panel," provides instructions for using the printer
operator panel.

Using Printer Drivers

Your printer software includes the PostScript 3 printer
drivers for Windows 3.x, Windows 95/98, Windows NT 4.0,
and Mac OS and the PCL 5e printer driver for Windows 3.x,
Windows 95/98, and Windows NT 4.0. They offer a wide
range of features for setting up your print job and printer
settings.
Most of these features and settings are described in this
chapter. A particular feature may be implemented slightly
differently, depending on which driver you are using.
note:
If you are unsure about a setting in your printer
driver, be sure to use the driver's Online Help feature.
Chapter 4, "Printer Drivers, " provides complete
information about using your printer driver software.
When to Use the PostScript 3 or PCL 5e Printer Driver
Use the PostScript 3 driver for color documents and
documents that contain many complex graphic images or
extensive page layout formatting. The PostScript driver has
more options and delivers better graphic processing.
Use the PCL 5e driver for monochrome documents that
contain mostly text and limited formatting. The PCL5e driver
processes this type of document quickly.
note:
For color printing, you must use the PostScript 3
printer driver for your system. The PCL 5e printer driver is
for monochrome printing only.
