Dos Environment; Running The Printer Setup Utility; Note For Windows® 95 Users - Olivetti JP 90 User Manual

DOS Environment

If you use a DOS Software programme, you will require a
specific driver for each printer model and application to
access the main features of your printer. Ask your computer
dealer for advice.
To install any of the drivers, always refer to the specific
software application documentation. Should any of the
parameters you require not be accessible through the driver,
you can access them using the printer SETUP utility.
Your printer has three resident emulations: PCL III + (default
value) and IBM Proprinter X24 Model 4207/1 and EPSON LQ
850:
•
PCL III + mode:
Choose the PCL III + driver when setting your application
software. If PCL III + is not available, choose HP DeskJet
500C or HP DeskJet 500. The PCL III + mode supports
both black and colour printing.
•
IBM Proprinter X24 mode:
Choose the IBM Proprinter X24 Model 4207/1 driver when
setting your application software. Note that this mode
supports ONLY black printing with a black print head.
Attempting to print with a colour print head will result in an
error condition. The demo page is not available if this
emulation is selected.
•
EPSON LQ 850 mode:
Choose the EPSON LQ 850 model driver when setting
your application software. Note that this mode supports
ONLY black printing with a black print head. Attempting to
print with a colour print head will result in an error
condition. The demo page is not available if this emulation
is selected.

Running the Printer SETUP Utility

This programme is aimed at DOS-based applications. It
should be used if the feature you require cannot be selected
through the driver you have installed or if no driver is
available.
We suggest that you make a copy of this programme on
another diskette, and keep the original as a master.
Use a good quality interface cable for your computer-
printer connection, to ensure correct communication (ask
your retailer for details).
Note for Windows® 95 users
If you have Windows® 95 installed on your PC, BEFORE
running the SETUP utility, you must disable the DOS
spooler, as follows:
1. In the "Printer" folder, select a printer than "Properties" tab.
2. In the "Details" sheet, click on the "Port Settings" button.
3. A window entitled "Configure LPT ports" opens, with the
option "Spool MS-DOS print jobs" selected.
4. Click on the box, to disactivate the option. This will enable
the DOS application to handle the port directly.
5. Close Windows® 95.
To re-enable the "Spool MS-DOS print jobs" feature, just
repeat the above procedure.
