Figure 6-30 Advanced PostScript options
●
PostScript language level specifies which level of PostScript language to use. Some printers
support both level 1 and 2. If your printer supports level 2, it is probably best to use level 2.
●
Bitmap compression specifies whether to compress graphics before sending your document to
the printer. If you are using PostScript level 2, or if you are using PostScript level 1 and a printer
connected to a serial port, click
Compress bitmap images . For PostScript level 1 and a printer
connected to a parallel port or a network printer, click No bitmap compression .
●
Data format
●
ACSII data sends data in ASCII format (7-bit), which may take longer to print but can be sent
through any I/O channel, such as a serial, parallel, or network port.
If you select this option and you see a Send Mode button, click it to switch your printer to
ASCII for future print jobs.
●
Binary communication protocol sends all data except special control characters in binary
(8-bit) format. This format can be sent over parallel or serial communications ports and is
faster than sending data in ASCII format. If you select this option, click
Send Mode to switch
your printer to Binary Communications Protocol (BCP) for future print jobs.
●
Tagged binary communications protocol sends all data except special control characters
in binary (8-bit) format. This format can be sent over parallel or serial communications ports
and is faster than sending data in ASCII format.
●
Pure binary data sends all data in pure binary format, which is the fastest format to print but
can be sent only over network cables or AppleTalk.
