TrueType
Options
TrueType Options
This option determines what the driver tells the printer about how to
image the text in your document. Select the appropriate setting according
to the status of your document.
Download as Outline  : When this option is selected, the
driver will download any TrueType fonts, that are used in your
documents, which is not stored (resident) on your printer. If, after
printing a document, you find that the fonts did not print correctly,
choose Download as bit image and resubmit your print job. The
Download as bit image setting is often useful when printing Adobe.
Download as Bitmap : When this option is selected, the
driver downloads the font data as bitmap images. Documents with 
						

							complicated fonts, such as Korean or Chinese, print faster in this
setting.
Print as Graphics : When this option is selected, the driver
downloads any fonts as graphics. When printing documents with
high graphic content and relatively few TrueType fonts, printing
performance (speed) may be enhanced in this setting.
 Print

							Use Printer Fonts
When  Use Printer Fonts  is checked, the printer uses the fonts that
are stored in its memory (resident fonts) to print your document, rather
than downloading the fonts that have been used in your document.
Because downloading fonts takes time, selecting this option can speed up
your printing time. When using Printer fonts, the printer will try to match
the fonts used in your document to those stored in its memory. If,
however, you use fonts in your document that are very different from
those resident in the printer, your printed output will appear very different
from what it looks like on the screen.
