Using Your Printer with Application Software

Printing a test file

After you install the software, create a test file using the fonts,

symbols, and formats that you use most often. Printing the test file

shows you which characters you can print with your application

program and whether you need to make any changes to your

printer settings with SelecType.

Your test file should contain as many of the following items as

possible:

More than one full page of text

Text on every line

Some lines that extend completely to the margins

Features that you can control with your software, such as bold

or underlined text

Some graphics (if you choose an EPL-7000 or HP LaserJet series

IIP driver)

Headers and footers (if your software supports them).

If you select the first printer recommended for your operating

mode, you should be able to use all of the features of your

application program. Even if you have to choose an alternative

printer from the lists, you should still obtain a wide range of

printing effects.
