Resolution

The Resolution menu allows you to select the printing resolution for
a specific job. If you have a resolution upgrade installed on your
printer, the options are 600 x 600 dpi and 1200 x 1200 dpi.

If you have installed the resolution upgrade and the required RAM,
but the upgrade cannot be selected (it is grayed out), the RAM may
not be configured properly in the PPD. The following procedures
describe how to configure the RAM in common environments.

Macintosh:

Go to the Chooser, select the AdobePS icon and
your printer; then select Setup. Make sure the correct
PPD is selected; then select Configure. Make sure
the correct amount of RAM is selected in the
InstalledMemory dialog box.

Windows 95:

From the Windows 95 desktop, click Start, then
Settings, and then Printers. Select your printer; click
the right mouse button; then click Properties from
the drop down menu. Select the Device Options tab
and make sure that the VMOption under Installable
options is set for the amount of installed RAM.
Select the Graphics tab and set the resolution.

Windows 3.1: Select Printers from the Control Panel. Select your

printer; then click Setup. Select the Features tab and
set InstalledMemory to match the amount of
installed RAM.

See appendix B, “Application Notes and Page Design” for
information about setting the RAM configuration in PageMaker.
