About Printer
driver
Printer Driver is a section of your software that automatically translates
instructions from the software to your printer.
For example, when using some application softwares, if you want to
boldface or underline a word, the printer driver automatically translates
your specific boldface or underline instruction on your application
software to printer control command.
Different printers use different control codes for designating print styles.
Therefore, it is important that when you install your software, you select
the appropriate printer driver designed for your printer.
Printer driver selection
Select a suitable printer driver from the list of supported printers. This
would include either the Hewlett Packard RuggedWriter 480, Epson LQ-
2550 or IBM 2391. Each of these printer drivers should allow you to
access many of the features on your printer.
If this printer is not listed, look for the following printer drivers. While
this should allow you to print your document with your printer, it probably
will not allow you to access many features of the printer. A few of the
choices you may see are given below in order of preferences.

RuggedWriter 480 LQ-2500/2550 2390/2391

1. Set the emulation type in the extension setup options according to the

LQ-2550 printer driver, you should set the emulation type to the Epson
mode.
2. If you select the DiskJet 500 printer driver, you should set the #50 PCL
MODE to PCL3+D.
