4. Printing Directly from Applications
Print Layout:
Your printer has a large print area 14x16 inches (35 x 40 cm). Any application has a rule to do the layout in
printing, e.g. Microsoft Internet Explore sets the artwork at the center top, and Microsoft Power Point does at the
center middle. The GT-3 Printer does not have Letter or A4 paper size. To avoid this issue, please set the paper
size as 14x16 inches (35 x 40 cm) and do the layout manually by yourself. Use GT-3 FileOutput Printer Driver to
see the final layout with GT File Viewer.
We recommend that GT-3 Printer should be your PC's default printer. See the last section of "3-3-3. Connection
with USB 2.0 Cable: for Windows XP" or "3-3-6. Connection with USB 2.0 Cable: for Windows Vista / Windows
7".
How to make White data:
Printer Driver makes either White-only print data or Color-on-White-mask (under base) print data from one image
data. When you print colorful image by selecting "White-only", then the output is monochrome. Set RGB=254
white for white image. RGB-255 (paper color) is transparent with no ink printed. When there are some spots in
RGB=255 color in a photo, e.g. those spots will never be printed. Use GT-3 FileOutput Printer Driver to see the
final layout with GT File Viewer. As for the operations for each application, refer to the following pages or
application help.
Print Cancel:
Your printer does not start printing until you press the Print Button; The printer memory only holds one print job
data at any time.
<Important!>
Do not use canceling command from "Printer and Faxes (for Windows XP)" / "Printers (for Windows Vista)" /
"Devices and Printers (for Windows 7") / "View devices and printers (for Windows 8)" in "Control Panel". Doing so
causes an error and you may have to restart your printer.
Print AR3 files:
Use "GT-3 FileOutput" Printer Driver, which saves print data in AR3 format. With this you can see the detailed
print conditions and estimated ink cost. See "5. Printing AR3 Files." for the details.
<Important!>
Do not use "Print to File" command in the applications' Print window. File extension may be different.
<Note>
 You cannot print GT-541/GT-782 print data (ARP files) with GT-3.
 The settings of printer driver may be applied for one print; it depends on the application.
 The settings made with Control Panel of your PC sometimes may not be applied to the application. If so, make
the settings again in the menu of printer driver; these are applied to the actual settings.
