HP DeskJet 500C Application Note
for Applause II, Version 1.5
Use the installation utility contained on this diskette to copy the driver
files to your Applause II directory on your hard disk.
IMPORTANT: While using the installation utility, make sure that you
respond with a "Y" (Yes) when prompted for "SETUPAP.RES
overwrite [Y/N]".
Using the "SETUPAP" Program
---------------------------
Run the SETUPAP program to configure Applause II with your printer.
1. From the Applause II directory (i.e., C:\AP15) on your hard disk,
type SETUPAP ...then <Enter>.
2. Press S (Setup) ...then press <Enter>.
3. Press O (Output) ...then press <Enter>.
4. Use the arrow keys to highlight an "Output device..." that hasn't been
configured yet ...then press <Enter>.
5. Press <Enter> again to select "Printer".
6. Use the up/down arrow keys to highlight "HP DeskJet 500C",
then press <Enter>.
NOTE: If you also want to print using the black ink cartridge,
be sure to select "HP DeskJet series..." as an additional
printer ("Output device #).
7. Press M (MainMenu) ...then press <Enter>.
8. Press <Enter> again to select "Save changes".
9. If you also selected "HP DeskJet series..." for black-only printing,
you may need to insert your Applause II "Printers Disk" into a floppy
drive at this time.
10. Type the floppy drive letter ...then press <Enter>.
11. Press E (Exit) ...then <Enter>, to end the SETUPAP program.
Setting Up For Color Printing
-----------------------------
From Applause II do the following;
1. Under "File" in the menu bar, select "Print...".
2. With your mouse, click on the printer device and drag the cursor down
to select "HP DeskJet 500C". NOTE: If you're not using a mouse,
press the <Tab> key several times to highlight the block to the
right of "Device:", then press <Enter> and use the up/down arrow
keys to select "HP DeskJet 500C" ...then press <Enter> again.
3. Select "Setup".
4. Verify that your "Output port" is correct.
5. Use the up/down arrow keys to highlight the block across from
"Resolution:" ...then press <Enter>.
6. Select the desired resolution.
NOTE: "Low" = 75 dots per inch (faster, lower quality )
"Medium" = 150 dots per inch (medium quality)
"High" = 300 dots per inch (presentation quality)
7. Select the desired "Paper size:".
8. Verify that the color ink cartridge is in the printer.
9. Click on "OK" (or <Tab> to it, then press <Enter>) to begin printing.
NOTE: There may be a delay from the time you click on "OK" until
the printer actually begins printing. This delay is due to
the processing time it takes for Applause II to prepare the
color data for printing.
Setting Up For Black-Only Printing
----------------------------------
In order to switch from color-only (color ink cartridge installed) to
black-only (black ink cartridge installed) printing, you can simply select
"HP DeskJet series..." from the "File", "Print...", "Device:" menu. Make
sure that the black ink cartridge is installed in the printer.
NOTE: This assumes that you selected "HP DeskJet series..." as another
printer in the SETUPAP program (as mentioned above in step #6 of
the "Using the SETUPAP Program" section).
Miscellaneous Notes
-------------------
Colors displayed on screen may not match those printed. We have provided
a custom palette called "HPDJC". In order to use the palette, you'll
need to copy the "HPDJC.PAL" file (contained in your Applause II
directory) to the PALETTES directory. For example;
C:\AP15> copy HPDJC.PAL \AP15\PALETTES ...then press <Enter>.
Refer to your Applause II documentation on how to select and modify
various palettes.
Creating charts or drawings using a palette other than the HPDJC palette
will yield unpredictable results. Use the HPDJC palette to obtain the
closest color matching results. Charts or drawings that were created
using a different palette will need to be edited using the HPDJC palette.
Even with the custom palette installed, you may experience some variation
in printed versus displayed colors. In these cases it is best to create
(then print) a small square at the left edge of the page and adjust the
palette to obtain the color you desire.

Orientation"). If you don't, you may experience printing errors
where text is split at the top and bottom of the page.
5. Printed colors may not match those selected from within the WYSIWYG
color palette in edit mode. Printed colors may not match colors
displayed on screen. WYSIWYG allows you to choose from a graphic
palette of 224 colors or 16 text colors. These colors may be viewed
on screen. However, only a subset of those colors can actually be
printed from the application.
6. Lotus Printgraph exhibits a problem where some colors may not print
correctly. For example, a blue bar in a chart may print in white
(clear). Changing the "Range colors" may correct the problem.

HP DeskJet 500C Application Note
for Quattro Pro, Versions 1.0, 2.0, 2.01, 3.0, 3.01
---------------------------------------------------
Use the installation utility contained on this diskette to copy the driver
and installation files to the Quattro Pro directory on your hard disk.
Setting Up the HP DeskJet 500C Printer Driver
---------------------------------------------
From the Quattro Pro subdirectory on your hard disk run DJ.BAT by typing
the following command; DJ ...then <Enter>.
This batch file MUST be executed in order to add HP DeskJet 500C driver
information to the Quattro Pro printer configuration file.
NOTE: The DJ.BAT file creates a new PRINTERS.BGI file. The original file
(that came with your Quattro Pro software) is saved as PRINTBAK.BGI.
Selecting the DeskJet 500C Printer from Quattro Pro
From Quattro Pro do the following;
1. Press "/" to select the menu bar.
2. Press the following keys (or select with your mouse);
O(Options), H(Hardware), P(Printers), 1(1st Printer), T(Type of
printer).
3. Use the up/down-arrow keys to highlight "HP Printers",
then press <Enter>.
HINT: The name "DeskJet 500C" may not be visible on the first screen.
Use the up-arrow key (or scroll bar, if using a mouse) to bring
the "DeskJet 500C" name into view.
4. Select the paper size, resolution, and whether you want B&W (black-
only) or Color printing enabled. Press <Enter> after you have
highlighted your selection.
NOTE: After you have made your selections, you will be returned to
the "Type of printer" window. Verify that the selections are correct.
5. Press <Ctrl> <Break> to return to the worksheet mode.
If the DeskJet 500C is the only printer connected to your system, we
suggest that you set up the "1st Printer" using one of the "B&W" (black-
only) drivers. Then configure the "2nd Printer" for "Color" printing.
This will allow you to easily switch between black-only (black ink
cartridge installed in the printer) and color (color ink cartridge
