With its dual function thermal transfer/dye-
sublimation color printing capability, the Color
Sign Printer offers you incredible printing
versatility. Its wax thermal transfer mode delivers
fast, inexpensive color output or proofs on paper
stock, while its resin thermal transfer mode prints
outdoor-durable labels, signs, and decals on long-
lasting vinyl print media. And with its dye-
sublimation mode, you get continuous-tone, photo-
quality output no other color printing technology
can match.
Switching back and forth between these printing
methods is easy. All you do is load either the
thermal transfer ribbon with the appropriate print
media or the dye-sublimation ribbon with its print
media, and select the appropriate printing choice
from within the included software printer driver.
The entire change-over process only takes about 15
to 20 seconds.
And, best of all, operation is simple and straight
forward. The Color Sign Printer will print from any
IBM-PC ¨ or compatible running Windows
3.1x/Windows 95 or any Macintosh
which has system software 7.0 or higher, a Geo-
compatible serial port, and which supports Color
QuickDrawª. This means that you can use the
printer with virtually any software package
running under these operating environments
without any special set-up or configuration beyond
the initial installation of the specific software driver
and interface cable.
To begin using the Color Sign Printer, please refer
to the remainder of this manual. This UserÕs
Manual is your complete step-by-step guide to
setting up and printing with your powerful, new
Color Sign Printer.
