Chapter 1: Before you start

About this book

This book is delivered as an Adobe Acrobat PDF file. It provides a

convenient on-screen reference to the many features of the driver

software supplied with your Sharp AR-C360P.

There are many cross-references within this book, each highlighted

as blue text. When you click on a cross-reference within Adobe

Acrobat or Adobe Reader (also supplied on the Manuals CD) the

display will instantly jump to the part of the manual containing the

referred material.

By using the button in Adobe Reader, you can navigate directly

back to where you were before.

If you need to print a part of this manual, use Adobe Reader’s print

command, and choose which pages you want to print. Some pages

are deliberately left blank so that the page format is appropriate for

duplex (double-sided) printing if you wish.

How to access the driver screens

Most of the features described are accessed via the printer driver

windows. How you access them depends on your computer and its

operating system.

The driver windows are tabbed dialogue boxes, offering a wide range

of choices about how you want to print your documents.

There are two ways to access the driver features:

1. Directly from the Windows “Printers” folder (“Printers and

Faxes” folder in Windows XP).

If you choose this method any changes you make will become

the driver defaults. This means they will remain active for all

your applications unless you specifically change them from

within the application’s Print dialogue.

2. From your application’s Print dialogue.

If you choose this method any changes you make will usually

only last for as long as the particular application is running, or

until you change them again. In most cases, once you quit the

application the driver defaults will return.

Important!

Settings made from the printer’s own control panel are

the printer defaults. They determine how your printer

will behave unless you specify otherwise from your

computer.

The driver defaults override the printer defaults.

Application Print settings override both the printer

defaults and the driver defaults.

Driver settings

This feature allows you to save the printer driver settings and reuse

them later. This could be useful if you frequently print many different

types of document that require different printer driver settings.

Recalling saved settings is a simple task that must be done first,

before any job-specific changes are made. Rather than repeat the

procedure throughout this manual, it is described here.

Saving a set of driver settings

1. Make any changes to the driver settings you want, as

described in the relevant section of this manual.

2. In the driver’s [Setup] tab, click [Save…].

3. Enter a meaningful name for the settings you are saving, and

click [OK].

Recalling saved driver settings

1. In the driver’s [Setup] tab, choose any previously saved

[Driver Settings] you need.

2. Proceed to make any other adjustments for this job, as

described in the relevant section in this manual.

Setting the driver device options

This section explains how to ensure that your printer driver can

utilise all of the hardware features installed in your printer.

Accessories such as hard disk, duplex unit (two sided printing),

additional paper trays, etc., will only be usable if the printer driver

on your computer knows they are there.

In some cases the hardware configuration of your printer is

automatically detected when the driver is installed. However, it is

advisable to at least check whether all of the available hardware

features are listed in the driver.

This procedure is essential if you subsequently add extra hardware

features to your printer after the drivers have been installed and set

up.

To set the driver device options:

1. Access the driver’s [Properties] window.

2. Select the [Device Options] tab.

3. Set the options for any devices you have installed, including

the correct number of paper trays, finisher, duplex unit, etc.

4. Click [OK] to close the window and save your changes.

Chapter 2: Printing black

Black generation

You can specify whether black graphics in color documents are

printed using:

>Composite Black

>Pure Black

Pure Black is the default setting.

Composite black

The cyan, magenta, yellow, and black toners are combined to create

composite black. This will sometimes give a glossier finish due to the

increased amount of toner. It can also appear as a slightly brownish

black.

Pure black

Only black toner is used to print pure black.
