- LASERJET MANAGER | softWorks
- =======================================+===============================
- Version 2.4 | personal engineering software
- 02/07/1996 |
- |
- |
- ============================================================================
- 0. NEW | Some bug fixes and small enhancements.
- |
- ============================================================================
- 1. DESCRIPTION | A lot of options of a HP Laserjet printer can be
- | configured on the front panel.
- |
- | These include
- | - economode
- | - powersave
- | - resolution
- | - input modes (PCL,Postscript)
- | - orientation
- | - format
- | - fonts
- | - language
- | and others.
- |
- | Laserjet Manager makes these options directly available
- | to the user at his screen. This way you can
- | conveniently change settings without moving from your
- | computer to the printer. Laserjet Manager is especially
- | usefull for the newer Laserjet printers (eg Laserjet
- | 5L) that completely lack front panel configurability
- | (oh yes, there is a Windows program :-O )
- |
- | Laserjet Manager sports a graphical user interface and
- | comes complete with english/german language adaptions
- | and help pages in HTML format.
- |
- ====================+========================================================
