Getting the largest printed picture
Use the Tektronix Phaser 240 driver and perforated paper or transparencies
to get the largest print areas. You may also have to adjust the margins in
your application software.

Why should I use perforated paper?
By using Tektronix perforated paper (and transparencies), you can
print full A-size or A4-size images with standard ISO margins
(5 mm; 0.2 in.).

How long does it take to make a print?
The total print time depends on the image complexity, the type of port used,
and the printer's paper-marking speed. The paper-marking speed is the
time it takes the printer to put the colored wax on the paper, once it has
received the processed image.
and the printer's paper-marking speed. The paper-marking speed is the
time it takes the printer to put the colored wax on the paper, once it has
received the processed image.
Of these three elements, only the printer's paper-marking speed is
predictable; the others can vary greatly depending on your system
conÞguration and the type of image you are printing. However, the
Phaser 240 PostScript interpreter combines very fast image processing and
communication with sophisticated memory management to keep the total
print time to a minimum. For details on the printer's paper-marking speed,
see ÒSpeciÞcationsÓ on page A-3.
