Lexmark 2050 Color Jetprinter
(260-2982)       Print From DOS Apps in Windows       Faxback Doc. # 35190

Use these instructions only if your application runs from the DOS prompt in
Windows.  When you print from a DOS application, your printer uses PCL 3
emulation.  You must install a printer driver for PCL 3 emulation in each
DOS application.  In Windows 3.1, avoid switching from your DOS application
to another application while your job is printing.  See the Lexmark 2050
Color Jetprinter README file for more information.

To print from DOS applications that run from the Windows DOS prompt:

1. Make sure you are in Windows, not native DOS.

2. Double-click the MS-DOS icon located in the Main group of Windows
   Program Manager.

3. Start your application from the MS-DOS prompt.

4. Install the HP DeskJet 500C as the current printer in the DOS
   application from which you are printing.

Some applications offer a color or black (mono) version of the HP DeskJet
500C driver.  Choose the black (mono) version if you are printing in black
only.  Choose the color version if you are printing in color and black.
If your application does not offer the HP DeskJet 500C printer driver,
install the DeskJet 500 printer driver.  You will not be able to print in
color with the DeskJet 500 printer driver.  For help installing a printer,
see your application user's documentation.

5. If you need to change printer settings that are not in your application,
   use the DOS Printing Tab in the Printer Control Program.

6. Print as you normally would from your application.
