Use ESRI ArcGIS 9 to print a map

ArcGIS is a scalable system of software for geographic data creation, management, integration, analysis,

and dissemination for every organization, from an individual to a globally distributed network of people.

The software always sends RGB data to the printer driver. Select from several different printer engines.

The printer engine determines the format and method that ArcMap uses to send the print job to the printer.

One to three options are available, depending on license and printer configurations.

Windows is the default and is always available, regardless of the printer that is in use. It allows

the software to use the installed HP-GL/2 and RTL driver

PostScript is available only if your printer supports PostScript and when the PostScript driver has

been selected in the Name section. This allows you to output the file as a PostScript file. This option

might be useful in certain specific cases, but in general it is not recommended.

ArcPress is an extension that can be purchased for printing from ArcGIS. It is a software RIP that

takes the original metafile and applies raster to it before sending it to the printer, so that the printer

does not need to. This is beneficial because some printers cannot apply raster or do not have enough

memory to process large jobs. Always use ArcPress with HP RTL (RGB) TrueColor.
