Figure 3- 60: Print preview dialog box
Banners can only be printed on the integrated thermal printer. When you open
the Print dialog box from the File menu Print command, the Name text box
should contain Integrated Thermal Printer, the default if you have this printer
installed.
To print a banner, open the File menu Page Setup dialog box, and select Banner
for the Type. This locks in values for the Orientation, View, and Image controls.
For the Print Scale controls, select the Units you want to use to specify the
horizontal scale, either inches/division or centimeters/division. Select a value for
the Length; these values change according to the choice of Units.
Change the Summary Waveform selection if you want to add a screen shot to the
Beginning, End, or Both ends of the banner. The Summary Waveform is a screen
shot that gives you an overall view of what was originally on the screen before
printing began. It contains information that will not appear on the banner, such as
cursor and measurement readouts, histograms, and any screen text or labels that
you have added.
Select the Samples to Print to specify which portion of the waveform to print. If
you select Between cursors and no cursors are present, vertical cursors are
activated in their most recent position. You can use the multipurpose knobs to
change the cursor positions.
