Printers dialog box.
Note
If you are using Windows 3.1, you can use the printer with the
standard Microsoft Windows PostScript driver (by adding a WPD file
specific to the Phaser 540). With the standard driver, you get the
printer page size information, but you do not get color corrections and
other PostScript Level 2 features; those features are only available
through the Tektronix driver for Windows 3.1. For instructions on
updating the standard Microsoft driver, refer to the manual
Phaser 540 Drivers and Utilities Printing Reference.
Check the list of supported printers in your DOS application for support of a
Phaser 540 printer. If the list does not include this printer, check to see if
other Tektronix Phaser series printers are listed and choose one of those.
Otherwise, use a generic color PostScript driver. Refer to the Phaser 540
Drivers and Utilities Printing Reference for more information.
Note
Generic PostScript printer drivers do not have information about
this particular printer, for example, its page sizes or its image area
size. Using a standard Letter or A4 paper size selection should
produce acceptable results.
