PostScript
4-14
Your printer defaults to the forward compatibility mode and the Lexmark PostScript
driver uses this mode. For backward compatibility with the Lexmark Optra S family of
printers, use the latest version of the Lexmark Optra S driver which sends the
PostScript command to switch to backward compatibility mode. (The original Lexmark
Optra S driver does not send this command.)
See Table 4-6 to determine which Lexmark Optra S driver you should use.
The PostScript commands to switch the compatibility modes are:
Forward compatibility:
Backward compatibility:
With the appropriate printer driver installed and selected, your software program
enumerates and selects the available PostScript fonts.
