Windows Postscript Printer Driver - NEC SuperScript 1800 User Manual

Windows PostScript Printer Driver

note:
To use the Windows PostScript driver the
PostScript Level 2 Upgrade Kit must be installed in the
printer.
There are two PostScript property windows for computers
running the Windows NT 4.0 operating system.
• NEC SuperScript 1800 PS Properties window
• NEC SuperScript 1800 PS Document Default Properties
window
The PS Properties window contains driver properties that are
used by all software applications on your computer. It can be
opened from the Windows NT 4.0 Printers window.
The PS Document Default Properties window can only be
opened from inside a software application. The default
properties only affect the open document within the software
application.

The NEC SuperScript 1800 PS Properties window contains
tabs that divide the driver properties into six categories.
• General
