Graphic options

The Graphic section on the Advanced tab contains the True Type Font setting. The options for this
setting are Substitute with Device Font and Download as Softfont. Select Substitute with
Device Font
(the default) to use equivalent printer fonts for printing documents that contain True
Type fonts. This will permit faster printing; however, you might lose special characters that the printer
font does not support. Select Download as Softfont to download True Type fonts for printing
instead of using printer fonts.

Document Options

The Document Options settings contain the following controls:

Advanced Printing Features

Print Optimizations

Advanced Printing Features

When the Advanced Printing Features setting is Enabled, metafile spooling is turned on and
Finishing tab options such as Page Order, Booklet Layout, and Pages per Sheet are available,
depending on your product. For normal printing, leave the Advanced Printing Features setting at
the default (Enabled). If compatibility problems occur, you can disable the feature. However, some
advanced printing features might still be available in the print driver, even though they have been
disabled. If you select an advanced printing feature in the print driver that has been disabled on the
Advanced tab, the feature is automatically re-enabled.

Print Optimizations

NOTE

Print Optimization settings are available only in the HP PCL 6 and PCL 5eunidrivers.

They are not available in the PS Emulation Unidriver.

The default setting for Print Optimizations is Enabled. When this feature is enabled and your
document contains overlapping text and graphics, text placed on top of a graphic might not print
correctly. If the printed output is not correct, you can disable this feature. When disabled, print
optimization features, such as substituting device fonts for TrueType fonts and scanning for
horizontal and vertical rules, are turned off.
