EPSON AcuLaser C3800 User's Guide
Making changes to PostScript printer settings
You can change the PostScript printer settings in the PostScript printer driver. Online help
is available to help you with the printer driver settings.
Using online help
If you want help on a particular item, click the “?” icon on the top-right corner of the dialog
box’s title bar, then click the name of the setting that you want more information on. An
explanation of the setting and its options will be displayed.
Using AppleTalk under Windows 2000
Use the following settings if your machine is running Windows 2000, and the printer is
connected through an network interface using the AppleTalk protocol:
❏ Use SelecType to set the Emulation Mode-Network item to PS3. Using the default Auto
setting will cause an extra, unneeded page to be printed.
❏ On the Device Settings sheet of the printer’s Properties dialog box, make sure that
SEND CTRL-D Before Each Job and SEND CTRL-D After Each Job are set to No.
❏ TBCP (Tagged binary communications protocol) cannot be used as the Output
Protocol setting.
❏ On the Job Settings sheet of the printer’s Properties dialog box, make sure to clear the
Job Management On check box.
