Setting Up Your Application Software
Now that you have set up and tested the ActionPrinter 4000, you
should make sure that it works with your application programs.
Most application programs let you specify the type of printer you
are using
so that
the program can take full advantage of the
printer’s features. Many of these programs provide an installation or
setup menu that presents a list of printers to choose from.
If your application program has a printer selection menu, use the
instructions below.
Choosing From a Menu
Because the family of Epson printers shares a great many
commands, you can use an application program even if it does not
list the ActionPrinter 4000 on its printer selection menu. If the
ActionPrinter 4000 is not listed, choose one of the following printers.
They are listed in order of preference.
LQ-510
LQ-800 (LQ-1000)
LQ-850 (LQ-950, LQ-1050)
SQ-2500
LQ-500
LQ-2500
LQ-2550
LQ-1500
If none of these printers is listed, select the first one available on the
following list:
LQ
LX
Epson printer
EX
RX
Standard printer
FX
MX
Draft printer
To use all of the features of the ActionPrinter 4000, however, it is
best to use a program with the 4000 or one of the LQ printers on its
menu. If your program does not list the 4000 or one of the LQ
printers, contact the software manufacturer to see if an update is
available.
