Send Data in Binary

Tells the driver to send data to the printer in a binary

format. Sending data in binary format may improve the printer’s
performance when printing images or documents containing many
downloadable fonts. The printer can receive data in either ASCII or
binary format.

m

Send Full Color Data

Tells the driver to print colors on a color printer. Usually

it is best to select this option even when printing to a non-color printer.
Colors print in finer shades of gray.

m

Match Colors Across Printers

Tells the driver to save color-matching

information with the data for use later when the document is saved to a file
for printing on a different PostScript Level 2 printer.

m

Job Timeout

Sets the maximum number of seconds that the printer will

spend trying to print a document before canceling the print job. A value of
zero means that the job is never canceled.

m

Wait Timeout

Sets the maximum number of seconds that the printer will

wait for Windows to send data before canceling the print job. A value of
zero means that the job is never canceled.

m

Margins

Changes the way the printer driver reports the printable area to the

applications you use. The Default option tells the driver to report the
printable area accurately to the applications. The None option tells the
driver to report the dimensions of the paper as the printable area.

m

Protocol Options

Tells the printer driver whether to begin and end print jobs

with Ctrl-D. Default means it will begin and end jobs with a Ctrl-D, and
None means it won’t. If the printer is connected to your computer or
network by its parallel port, click Default; if it’s connected by its Ethernet
port, click None.

m

PostScript Performance

Tells the driver to build PostScript document

descriptions that print as fast as possible when “Optimize for Speed” is
selected. Such document descriptions might not print successfully on
printers with limited memory. Select “Optimize for Portability” to tell the
driver to build PostScript document descriptions that print successfully on
many different printers.
