Configuring Your Software For The Printer; Choosing From A Menu - Epson FX-870 User Manual

Configuring Your Software for the Printer

Most application programs allow you to specify the type of printer
you use so that the program can take full advantage of the printer's
features. Many of these programs provide an installation or setup
section that presents a list of printers.

Choosing from a menu

To take full advantage of your printer's features, choose your printer
when you set up your program. If your printer is not listed, choose
from the following list (the printers are listed in the order of
preference):
FX-870 FX-1170
FX-850 FX-1050
FX-800 FX-1000
EX-800 EX-1000
FX-85 FX-105
FX-80+
FX-lOO+
FX-80 FX-100
Epson printer
9-pin printer
If you plan to use the IBM printer emulation mode, choose IBM
Proprinter (XL), IBM Graphics printer, or IBM printer, in that order
of preference.
To use all the features of your printer, it is best to choose a program
that lists one of the FX printers on its menu. If your program does
not list one of these printers, contact the software manufacturer to
see if an update is available.
