BinkJet Print Dialog

The BinkJet print dialog consists of three tabbed panels:


Print

The Print tab of the BinkJet Print Dialog allows you to select the print quality, page order, two sided printing, number of copies, and range of pages to be printed.


About Tab of BinkJet Print Dialog

Print Quality

BinkJet supports three quality modes: Better, Faster, and Grayscale/Fax/Photocopy. Use Better mode to obtain the best print quality for your document. Use Faster mode to get the document printed quickly. Use Grayscale/Fax/Photocopy mode for documents that you plan to fax or photocopy.

Reverse page order

By default, BinkJet will print your document so that the pages will be in the correct order when you remove your complete document from the output tray. It accomplishes this by printing the last page first, followed by the second to last page, etc. If you would like to see the pages print such that page 1 emerges first, then check the box next to Reverse page order.

Print two sided

Select Print two sided to print on both sides of a sheet of paper.

Copies

Enter the number of copies of your document that you wish to print into the box next to Copies.

Page Range

By default, the All button is selected. This will print all of the pages of your document. If you wish to print a smaller range of pages, then put the number of the first page you would like to print in the box next to Page and put the number of the last page you would like to print in the box following To.

Service

The Service panel allows you to test out the driver by printing a sample page, align the black and color print cartridges, and clean the print cartridges.

Test Page

Press the Test Page button to test out the communications between BinkJet and your printer. This will print a sample page that is actually built into the printer itself. If a page does not print, then you should check your cable and make sure your printer is turned on.

Align

Press the Align button to align the black and color print cartridges. Since the black and color print heads are physically located on separate print cartridges, it is necessary to align them so that the black ink and color ink will not be misaligned on your printouts. It is only necessary to do this when you install a new print cartridge and you do not need to align the printer under BeOS if you have previously aligned it under Windows or Mac OS.

Clean

Press the Clean button to clean your print cartridges. If you notice streaking in either your black or color print areas, try cleaning the print cartridges. You do not want to do this very often because it does use a significant amount of ink.
