Printer Driver Selections. Sam4s SPS-500

Printer Driver Selections

This program allows you to change the commands for specific printers, or to set up a new printer by using generic (1-5) settings.

► Select PRINTER DRIVER SELECTIONS from the S mode PROGRAMMING MENU to display the

PRINTER DRIVER SELECTIONS screen.

This is used to customize existing printer formats or to add generic printers to the system. There is normally no need to change this information. The only exception being, printing bitmap images where the initialization code should be deleted for the appropriate printer.
