Digital Label and Decal Press 2 UserÕs Manual
5. As described in steps 1-3 above, go back to Device Manager in Windows 95/98,
and verify that the LPT port registers as ECP. If your LPT port still registers as
ÒPrinter Port,Ó double-click on the
Printer Port line, select the Driver tab, and
click on the Change Driver button. Then, select the Show all devices option
and choose the
ECP Printer Port
option from under Models as shown below.
This will force Windows to recognize your parallel port as ECP.
IMPORTANT! Since the process of verifying and/or changing your computerÕs parallel port to
ECP is largely dependent on your brand of computer, please refer to your
appropriate computer documentation or contact the computer manufacturer for
more information on this process.
6. Once you are sure that your computerÕs parallel port mode is set to ECP, you
are ready to print with the 32-Bit Print Spooler. Before printing, select the
Fast
32-Bit Spooler option from within the printer driver setup window along with
all other appropriate printer driver options (see Part D of this section for more
printer driver information).
If you are unable to set your computer as described in this setup procedure or if
you have problems printing through the 32-Bit Print Spooler, refer to the
troubleshooting tip, ÒMy prints have thin lines or a dark band across the width of
the printÓ on page 84 for additional information.
