About PostScript printer drivers and PPDs
A PostScript printer driver is an application that manages printing communication
between your application software and the printer. It interprets the instructions
generated by the application software, merges those instructions with printer-specific
PPD options you specify (see below), and translates all that information into
PostScript, a language the printer understands. In other words, the printer driver writes
a PostScript file based on your original file and the options you set from the Print
dialog box.
A PPD file contains information about a particular device’s features and capabilities
(for example, what paper sizes and media types are supported). The PostScript printer
driver reads the information in the PPD file and presents that information to you in
the form of options you can choose from the Print dialog box. The PPD for the
Fiery ZX includes information about the features of both the copier and the
Fiery ZX-40 Color Server.
For information on the PPD options for your Fiery ZX, see Appendix A, "Print
Options."
Supported paper sizes and resolutions
You can print all page sizes supported by the DocuColor 40 in Contone mode at
400 dpi in Full Color or Grayscale. Note that you can print on thick paper and
transparencies only from the bypass tray. See the Xerox
Materials Usage Guide
for
complete information about the page sizes supported.
