Introduction

EpsonScript Level 2 for the ActionLaser™ 1600 adds PostScript® compatibility to your ActionLaser 1400 so you can print files formatted for PostScript. The printed output is equivalent to the output of an Apple® LaserWriter® II NTX.
EpsonScript includes a set of 35 PostScript-compatible fonts that include the following: Fixed Pitch 810 Courier, Dutch® 801 Roman, Swiss® 721, Geometric ITC Avant Garde® Revival 711 ITC Bookman,® Swiss 721 Narrow, Century 702 Century Schoolbook,® Zapf Calligraphic 801, ITC Zapf Chancery® Medium Italic, ITC Zapf Dingbats,® and Symbol. Matching screen fonts are also included to ensure that what you see on the screen matches the final printed output.
The quality of grayscale images is enhanced when you use the MicroGray feature, which allows EpsonScript to achieve the quality of a 1200-dpi typesetter to produce smoother graphic output than is available with standard PostScript.
The EpsonScript kit consists of an EpsonScript interface board and two sets of disks, one for the PC and one for the Apple Macintosh.® Your kit might also include the Local Talk® interface board, which allows you to connect the printer to your Macintosh or to an AppleTalk® network.

About This Manual

This manual is intended both for Macintosh and PC users. It is divided up into the following chapters:
Chapter 1, “Setup,” describes how to install the EpsonScript
and the LocalTalk interface boards. If these boards are already installed on your printer, skip this chapter. Note that the LocalTalk board needs to be installed only if you have a Macintosh.
Introduction 1
Chapter 2, "Installing the Drivers and Utilities,” describes how to install the EpsonScript software.
Chapter 3, “Using EpsonScript in a Macintosh Environment,” provides detailed information about using EpsonScript if your printer is connected to an Apple Macintosh computer.
Chapter 4, “Using EpsonScript in a Windows” Environment,” provides detailed information about using EpsonScript if you are running Microsoft® Windows on your PC.
Appendix A, “Changes to SelecType,“’ describes how the printer’s SelecType menus are expanded to include settings specific to EpsonScript. Because the default settings are designed for most computer environments, you should not normally have to consult this appendix.

Software Installation

This chapter describes how to install the EpsonScript driver
and utilities for both the Macintosh and PC environments. See the procedure that applies to you.
Installing the Macintosh Driver
To install the EpsonScript drivers and screen fonts on your Macintosh, you first need to run the EpsonScript Installer program. Then select the EpsonScript driver in the Chooser.
Running the EpsonScript Installer program
The Installer utility for the Macintosh driver has both an easy and a custom installation.
The easy installation installs all EpsonScript files and screen
fonts that are not already installed on your Macintosh. Normally, you should use the easy installation since this ensures that all necessary files are copied and that the Macintosh environment is modified to give you the full benefit of the EpsonScript option.
The custom installation installs only the files you specify. You might want to use the custom installation if you are low on disk space and want to install only those files that are absolutely
required. However, if you have enough disk space, it is
recommended that you use the easy installation. To install EpsonScript on your Macintosh:
1.
Turn on your Macintosh if it is not already on Exit any Macintosh programs you are currently running.

EpsonScript Utility
Screen fonts for System 7.1, System 7.0
This driver allows you to use EpsonScript and control printer settings that are specific to EpsonScript. You must install this driver if you want to use your printer to print files formatted for PostScript.
This utility allows you to manage and download fonts, get printer information, and send files directly to the printer. Installation of the EpsonScript Utility is optional. If you do not install the utility to your hard disk, you can run it later when needed from the diskette.
The screen fonts match the EpsonScript printer fonts and ensure that what you see on screen closely resembles the final printed output. If you do not install screen fonts, the system substitutes other fonts to represent the printer fonts, with the result that your printed output might differ from what you see on screen.
Select one or more items. To select multiple items, hold down the
Shift key
when you click the item. If you select a single item only, a description for the item appears at the bottom of the dialog box.

Changing the Emulation

Before you can use the EpsonScript option, you need to change the emulation by using the SelecType menus.
If you’re using the LocalTalk interface, the emulation may automatically be set for PostScript compatibility. However, it is a good idea to check this setting before you begin printing.

Selecting Fonts

You select fonts from the Font menu of your software program. Most of the font names listed by your program are very similar to the printer font names; however, in a few cases, the font name you select is different from the name of the font that prints, although the appearance of the fonts is almost the same. For example, when you choose Palatino® the printer font Zapf Calligraphic 801, which resembles Palatino very closely, is automatically substituted.
The following table lists the cases in which the font listed by your program has a different name than the corresponding printer font:
Font name you select

Using the EpsonScript Macintosh Driver

The EpsonScript Macintosh driver allows you to control general printer settings as well as settings specific to PostScript emulation. This chapter describes only those settings specific to PostScript emulation.
You do not normally need to change the EpsonScript settings. The default values are appropriate for most Macintosh environments.
However, if you need to, you can access the EpsonScript driver settings by first selecting
Page Setup
or
Print
from the File
menu of your software program and then choosing the

button. This brings
the following dialog box:

The menus that allow you to access additional printer settings are listed to the left.
Note:
This chapter assumes you are using EpsonScript with an ActionLaser 1600 printer. If you have another printer, the Options dialog box may differ and not all settings described in this chapter will
be accessible.
Using EpsonScript in a Macintosh Environment

Saving PostScript-compatible files as binary and ASCII

When saving a document as a PostScript-compatible file, you
have the option of encoding the file as binary (default) or
ASCII data. Save the file as a binary file to reduce the quantity
of data. Use ASCII if you plan to later edit the document.
To encode a PostScript-compatible file, first select
in the Print dialog box. Then choose the General menu of the
Options dialog box and select the Encoding option.
Print to File

Using precision bitmaps

To improve the quality of bitmap images, turn on the Precision
Bitmap option. This option is accessible from the Visual Effects
menu in the Options dialog box and slightly modifies bitmaps
for printing to a PostScript or PostScript-compatible printer. Images are displayed on a Macintosh at 72 dpi; however, most
PostScript and PostScript-compatible printers print images in multiples of 75 dpi. When 72-dpi screen data is converted print data, some image quality can be lost. If you select Precision Bitmaps, the screen data is first converted to a multiple of 75 and then printed, preserving the quality of the image, though reducing the image size by approximately 4%.
to

Using the MicroGray feature

The Dot Screen option of the Options dialog box allows you to change the grayscale technology used by the printer to create images. The options are Printer’s Default, Standard, and Multigray/Microgray.
Normally you should use MicroGray for the best looking grayscale images. Standard sets the printer’s grayscale handling to be the same as the standard PostScript.

Printing an error sheet

If you encounter errors when using PostScript emulation, you
can print an error sheet to determine the cause. To print an
error sheet, choose Error Sheet in the Options dialog box.

Font Management

The font management capabilities of EpsonScript allow you to
do the following:
Specify that system fonts be added to the PPD. Determine how TrueType® fonts are handled. Choose which set of fonts is to be downloaded.
Normally you do not need to use the font management capabilities. EpsonScript provides a wide variety of printer
fonts, and most other fonts are downloaded as needed. Other font settings are assigned default values appropriate for most environments. You should never change font settings unless you are familiar with font management on a Macintosh..

However if you need to manage fonts, in the Options dialog box. This brings up the following dialog box:
Using EpsonScript in a Macintosh Environment
choose the Fonts
button

Adding fonts to a PPD file

The Font Configuration dialog box lists both system fonts and PPD/Installed fonts for your software program. The system fonts are the fonts currently installed on your system. The PPD fonts are those included in the PPD file of your software program. These fonts are automatically downloaded as needed when you send a print job.
You can add any font on your system to a PPD file simply by selecting the system font and then choosing the Add button. The system font is then displayed in the PPD list.
If you install any new fonts on your system and you want those fonts accessible from your software program, you should
add them to the PPD list.
To remove any fonts from the PPD list, simply select the PPD font and choose the

Substituting fonts

When you turn on Substitute Fonts and then print common Macintosh screen fonts (Geneva, NewYork, and Monaco),
EpsonScript automatically substitutes one of its fonts. This results in faster print speed and higher resolution. Be aware that if the substituted font is significantly different from the
screen fonts, the printed output might look very different from
the way it looks on screen. For this reason, you normally
should not turn on Substitute Fonts.

Handling TrueType fonts

By default, EpsonScript converts TrueType fonts to be
compatible with Adobe® Type 1 fonts before printing them.
If you wish, you can specify that EpsonScript print TrueType
fonts as TrueType. Because EpsonScript is designed to print PostScript-compatible
fonts such as Type 1, you should normally not change the default setting.

Specifying which fonts to download

The Include Fonts option specifies which types of fonts need to
be downloaded when printing. The options are All But
PPD/Installed (default), None, All, All But Standard 13, All But Standard 35, and AU But Resident.
Normally when using EpsonScript with an ActionLaser 1600, you should not change the default setting of All But PPD/Installed. This ensures that all fonts required by your document are downloaded except those already in the PPD list.
If you are using EpsonScript to print to a printer that is able to
communicate with the Macintosh, you might choose All But Resident. In this case, the Macintosh interrogates the printer to determine which fonts are already downloaded. Only fonts not already in printer memory are downloaded.

Using the EpsonScript Utility

The EpsonScript Utility allows you to manage your printer
from a Macintosh computer. The EpsonScript Utility will also
work with PostScript or PostScript-compatible printers. With it,
you can do the following:
Display a list of fonts stored in the printer, download additional fonts, and remove any downloaded fonts.
Find out information about the printer, such as the driver version, the total number of pages printed, and how much memory is installed.
Send print files formatted for PostScript directly to the printer.
Rename the printer.
Send control commands to the printer, reset the printer, enable or disable the startup page, and edit control
commands.
To use the EpsonScript utility, first be sure the EpsonScript Driver and the appropriate printer are selected in the Chooser.
Then
The EpsonScript Utility is installed on your hard disk during the easy installation. If you did a custom installation and did not install the utility, you can run it from the diskette.

Selecting Fonts

You select fonts from the Font menu of your software program. Most of the font names listed by your program are very similar to the printer font names; however, in a few cases, the font
name you select is different from the name of the font that
prints, although the appearance of the fonts is almost the same. For example, when you choose Palatino, the printer font Zapf Calligraphic 801, which resembles Palatino very closely, is automatically substituted.
The following table lists the cases in which the font listed by your program has a different name than the corresponding printer font:
Font name you select Corresponding printer font
Helvetica Narrow Swiss 721 Narrow

Using the EpsonScript

The EpsonScript Windows driver modifies the Microsoft

settings. You do not normally need to change EpsonScript driver settings because the default values are appropriate for most Windows environments.
However, if you need to, you can access the EpsonScript

By default, EpsonScript converts TrueType fonts to be compatible with Adobe Type 1 fonts. This saves print time and
uses less printer memory because it makes it unnecessary to
download fonts to the printer. The driver automatically substitutes Type 1 compatible fonts
for the TrueType fonts in your document based on what most closely resembles the TrueType font. If you want more control
over font substitution, choose the
button to explicitly specify what Type 1 font to use in place of a
TrueType font.

Environment
You can also specify that EpsonScript convert TrueType fonts to bitmaps before printing them. Converting TrueType fonts to bitmaps saves some printing time when you are printing
documents that contain a lot of bitmap graphics and only a few
TrueType fonts.

Specifying memory usage

You may encounter printer memory problems when printing large documents that contain many downloaded fonts. To
resolve memory problems, EpsonScript provides two options
so you can specify memory usage:
Virtual Memory. This option increases the amount of virtual memory your printer has available for storing fonts.
Clear Memory per Page. This option clears all downloaded fonts from printer memory after each job is printed. This frees up memory for the next print job.

Graphics settings

EpsonScript allows you to specify the following graphics settings:
Resolution. Can be 300 or 600 dpi. The higher resolution of 600 dpi produces the sharpest images. However, if you are encountering printer memory problems, reduce the resolution to 300 dpi.
Halftone Frequency. Specifies the line screen. The value you select here depends on the resolution of your image and the resolution capability of the output device. If you are using 600 dpi, increase the halftone frequency (line
screen) to at least 110. For 300-dpi output, an 85-line screen is usually sufficient.
Using EpsonScript in a Windows Environment
4-7
Halftone Angle. Specifies the angle at which the halftone is
applied. Normally you should not change the default
unless you are correcting for a problem or attempting to
achieve a special effect. Negative Image. Inverts black and white areas of an image,
so that black areas become white and white areas become
black. Mirror Image. Creates a mirror image of a page. All Colors to Black. Prints any areas of color in black or
grayscale. Compress Bitmaps. Automatically compresses bitmaps so
they require less printer memory.

Creating files that conform to Adobe DSC

The Conform to Adobe Document Structuring Conventions
(DSC) option specifies that files conform to Adobe DSC. You
should enable this option in the following cases:
You are creating a file you want to use with a software program that supports Adobe DSC.
You want an outside service bureau to print the file.
You will be sharing the file with others.
When you create files that conform to Adobe DSC, the Halftone Frequency, Halftone Angle, and Clear Memory Per Page options are no longer selectable.
You do not need to enable this option when creating EPS files.

Printing EpsonScript error information

By default, whenever EpsonScript encounters an error, it prints a file that describes the cause of the error and provides some help on how to correct the problem. The information provided by EpsonScript is more detailed than that provided by the Print Manager.

How EpsonScript Affects Your Printer

When you install EpsonScript, the SelecType menus on the
printer’s front panel are expanded to allow you to select
PostScript emulation and change settings in EpsonScript. The changes to SelecType are these:
The EMULATION MENU allows you to select a PostScript emulation mode.
The PS MENU has been added so you can print a PostScript-compatible error sheet, change the MicroGray setting, and specify how much memory is reserved for page protection.
The TEST MENU includes three new items for testing PostScript compatibility.

EMULATION MENU

When you install EpsonScript, the EMULATION MENU is expanded to allow you to select one of the following PostScript compatiblity options:
PS PS&LJ4 PS&FX PS&ESCP2 PS&GL2
PS specifies that the selected interface handles only PostScript­compatible data. The other four settings are combined emulations that allow the printer to switch automatically between PostScript compatibility and another emulation as print data is received.
A-2
Charges to SelecType

PS MENU

The new PS MENU contains the following three items that allow you to change EpsonScript parameters:
ERR SHEET
Specifies whether the printer prints an EpsonScript error message if an error occurs. If ERR SHEET is OFF, the error message is displayed on the printer’s control panel but is not printed. If ERR SHEET. is ON, an error sheet is printed when the error occurs.
MicroGray
Enables your printer to produce the grayscale quality of a 1,200-dpi typesetter. If your software program supports halftones, its graphic output becomes smoother than is possible with standard PostScript. If you want to print your documents using standard PostScript grayscale, turn MicroGray off.
PROTECT LEVEL
ON, OFF (default)
ON (default), OFF
1
(default) - 5
Allows you to specify the amount of memory allocated for page protection. If the SelecType item PAGE PROTECT is off, an overrun error might occur if there is not enough memory to
print a page. If this error occurs, raise the protect level. If the error occurs after raising the level to 5, set PAGE PROTECT to PAGE, or LT, LGL, or A4.

TEST MENU

The TEST MENU contains three new items that allow you to print test pages specific to the EpsonScript mode. To print a test page, select the item in the TEST MENU and then press the

manual.
PS STATUS SHEET
