Rebuilding the Printer Type List

PARIS  maintains a list of available printers. It is this list that contains the
PCL and Adobe printer entries that are shown in the Printer Type drop-down
menu.

As described on the previous page, this list is a result of two searches the
software performs. This list must be kept up-to-date as the number of printer
types supported by PARIS will constantly grow as new printers are released on
the market. That is the purpose of the Rebuild Printer List button that is within
the View/Change Printer dialogue.

To support the features of a new printer:

1. Place the distributor supplied XPD and\or PPD file in the PARIS/PRT

directory.

2. Once the new files have been added, click on the Rebuild Printer List

button to make the printer available to the software.

Selecting the button causes the software to scan the directory and update
the list with any new entries. If no new XPD\PPD files have been added the
existing list will not be changed.
