Printing from
Windows
Computers
This chapter describes how to print to the ColorPASS from Windows 95/98/Me,
Windows NT 4.0, and Windows 2000. You can print from a networked Windows
computer or from a computer using Windows (SMB) printing. If you plan to print
files at another location, you should follow the procedures described in "Saving files to
print at a remote location" on page 1-28.
Another way to print from a Windows computer is to download PostScript,
Encapsulated PostScript (EPS), or Portable Document Format (PDF) files using Fiery
Downloader. Basic instructions are provided at the end of this chapter.
