Output Options
•
Print Subset
: You can set the sequence in which the pages
print. Select the print order from the drop-down list.
-
Normal (1,2,3)
: Your printer prints all pages from the first
page to the last page.
-
Reverse All Pages (3,2,1)
: Your printer prints all pages
from the last page to the first page.
-
Print Odd Pages
: Your printer prints only the odd
numbered pages of the document.
-
Print Even Pages

numbered pages of the document.
•
Use Printer Fonts
: When Use Printer Fonts is checked, the
printer uses the fonts that are stored in its memory (resident
fonts) to print your document, rather than downloading the
fonts used in your document. Because downloading fonts takes
time, selecting this option can speed up your printing time.
When using Printer fonts, the printer will try to match the fonts
used in your document to those stored in its memory. If,
however, you use fonts in your document that are very different
from those resident in the printer, your printed output will
appear very different from what it looks like on the screen.
This feature is available only when you use the PCL 6
printer driver.
•
Save as Form for Overlay
: Select Save as Form for Overlay to
save the document as a form file (C:\FORMOVER\*.FOM). Once
this option is selected, the printer driver requires the file name
and the destination path each time you print. If you want to
preset the file name and specify the path, click on the button in
the Output to area, and type the file name and specify the path.
This feature is available only when you use the PCL 6
printer driver.
Job type
Job Setting dialog allows you to select how to print or save the
printing file by using the optional HDD.
Some printers do not
support this feature.
