    -------------------------------------------------------------- Readme for RW-480 PLOTBASE April 2005 -------------------------------------------------------------- This document provides complementary or latest information to supplement the RW-480 PLOTBASE and RW-480 Clients documentation. Anti-Virus Software Since this product RW-480 is designed to work in a network, we recommend to use current virus protection software! The setup of RW-480 PLOTBASE tunes your system and installs necessary drivers, which might confuse some anti-virus software. Therefore we recommend to stop the anti-virus software temporarily during installation. RW-480 WINPRINT a. Effect: Pen settings on WINPRINT HPGL-file take no effect. Reason: WINPRINT uses HPGL data as internal data format. Workaround: User must not and need not change any data on WINPRINT internal data. Do not change internal data format. b. Effect: Unexpected character in WINPRINT Dialog of Color Adjustment. Character “@” should be character “x”. Reason: RW-480 PLOTBASE is using DLL for this dialog that comes with OS. Many other drivers from other manufactures have same problem because this is related to OS. c. Effect: Save button in WINPRINT -> ADVANCED -> Halftone Color Adjustment -> Properties does not work as expected: Reason: At this dialog a BITMAP is saved, not the settings itself. Behaviour of WINPRINT is as same as printer driver from other manufacture. d. Effect: Default button in RW-480 WINPRINT -> ADVANCED -> Halftone Color Adjustment -> Properties Does not work. Reason: Button only applies to R/G/B values, does not apply to other items of this page. e. Effect: An image data of Word or Excel is printed as a blank paper from Windows 9x. Reason: Microsoft WINDOWS(c) UNIDRV.DLL has problem when certain part of image is “out of sight” (= out of printable area).

This new platform has changed the way that IT administrators view and manage enterprise print drivers. Our core driver platform (the key component of this new strategy), helps make you more productive by streamlining the user interface and ensuring a consistent experience across the majority of our product lines. This consistency has greatly simplified print services delivery and reduced end-user training and support requirements, and lowered the cost of IT print services as a result. Two of the most innovative print drivers built on the new platform, the Xerox Global Print Driver and Xerox Mobile Express Driver, have been upgraded: Xerox Global Print Driver (X-GPD) is a universal print driver that offers unprecedented ease of use for network administrators managing a diverse array of print devices across the enterprise. It greatly reduces the time and effort required to deploy and upgrade print drivers on a network.

  • HP Universal Print Driver (UPD) Release Notes
    HP Universal Print Driver v7.0.0.24832 Release Notes The HP Universal Print Driver (HP UPD) is a single driver that gives users access to a range of HP print devices in the office or on the road without downloading separate drivers for every utilized printer. The HP UPD works well with a broad range of networked and direct-connected HP print products using PCL 6 or PostScript emulation. The HP UPD installs in Traditional Mode, or Dynamic Mode to enhance mobile printing. Dynamic Mode discovers network printers or enter a printer name or ip address and print anywhere on your network. It is great when you are on the road or want to print to a new device but do not have a model specific print driver installed. Traditional Mode is just like a traditional driver. Both modes can be used on the same PC. In addition to the print driver, use the tools in the HP UPD Printer Administrator’s Resource Kit (HP PARK) to streamline IT tasks, implement printing policies, and optimize your unique imaging and printing environment.
