PCL5e Features 9FEATURESDevice OptionsYou can use settings on the Device Options tab to match theattached printer configuration so that the printer driver cangenerate optimized PostScript code.Available printer memorySet this to match the amount of memory you have installed inthe printer.Available font cacheThe driver automatically adjusts the font cache size based oninstalled memory. Increase this amount for betterperformance of Type 32 bitmap fonts.Installable optionsUse this area to change the settings to match the printer’shardware setup when you add options to the printer,including Tray 2, or more RAM memory.PCL5 E F EATURESThese are general descriptions of settings available in thePCL5e printer drivers (models 4650N and 4650NX). Theinterface of the printer driver depends on the operatingsystem you use. Not all settings are available for all drivers,or they may appear on different tabs in the printer driver. Allprinter drivers have Online Help available at the click of abutton, with more information about specific settings.Chapter 4, “Printer Drivers,” shows the PCL5e printerdrivers and explains how to use them.ResolutionPrint resolution is measured by the number of dots per inch(dpi) in an image. The higher the number is, the finer theresolution. Resolution can be set to 600 (the default), 300, 150,and 75 dpi. Lower resolutions require less memory andprocessing time.DitheringSelect a dithering pattern for converting images from oneformat to another, for example, for printing color documentsin black and white. Dithering, along with the intensity andresolution settings, affect the overall appearance of graphicsin printed documents.Halftone Color AdjustmentIn the Windows NT driver this is an advanced feature forcontrolling how color appears in a document and isconverted to monochrome when printed.IntensityAdjust this setting to control the darkness of graphics in theprinted document.Reserved printer memorySpecify how much memory to reserve for special printerfunctions, such as macros, Operator Panel settings, etc. Thereserved memory is not used for printing.Printer memory trackingBefore printing a document, the printer driver calculates howmuch memory is required to print. If the document requiresmore memory than is available in the printer, the documentis rejected. Use this setting to define how this calculation ismade. A conservative calculation ensures that printermemory is never over-committed. A more aggressivecalculation allows the printer to attempt printing a complexdocument, but memory may be over-exceeded and the printjob may not be completed.Printer MemoryThis feature appears on the driver, but does not apply to theSuperScript 4650 Series printer and does not need to beadjusted.CartridgesThis feature appears on the driver, but does not apply to theSuperScript 4650 Series printer and does not need to beadjusted.
