Advanced Options
You can set advanced settings by clicking the Advanced 
Options
 button. 
•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 
document not already 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. 
This feature is available only 
when you use the PCL printer driver.
- Download as Bitmap: When this option is selected, the    
driver will download the font data as bitmap images.    
Documents with complicated fonts, such as Korean or    
Chinese, or various other fonts, will print faster in this setting. 
- 
Print as Graphics: When this option is selected, the driver 
will download 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 All Text To Black: When the Print All Text To Black 
option is checked, all text in your document prints solid black, 
regardless of the color it appears on the screen.
Extras Tab 
You can select output options for your document. See Printing 
a Document on page 12 for more information about accessing 
the printer properties.
Click the 
Extras tab to access the following feature:  
Watermark
You can create a background text image to be printed on each page of 
your document. For details, see Using Watermarks on page 22.
Overlay
Overlays are often used to take the place of preprinted forms and 
letterhead paper. 
For details, see Using Overlays on page 23.
Output Options
•Print Subset: You can set the sequence in which the pages 
print. Select the print order from the drop-down list.
- 
Normal: Your printer prints all pages from the first page to 
the last page.
- 
Reverse All Pages(3,2,1): Your printer prints all pages from 
the last page to the first page.
- 
Print Odd Pages: Your printer prints only the odd numbered 
pages of the document.
- 
Print Even Pages: Your printer prints only the even 
numbered pages of the document.
•
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 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.  
This feature is available only when you use the PCL 
printer driver.
