&d3D(s3BIntroduction&d@(s0B
Lotus printer device drivers are software programs that enable printers to
print text and graphs from Lotus 1-2-3 Release 3.1/3.4 on DOS-based PCs.
The printer drivers take full advantage of the WYSIWYG spreadsheet
publishing add-in provided with the 1-2-3 package as well as the native
raster printing capabilities.
&d3D(s3BIMPORTANT NOTE:&d@(s0B The HP DeskJet 560C printer is compatible with the HP DeskJet
550C printer. The Lotus(R) 1-2-3(R) driver included on this driver disk was
developed for the HP DeskJet 550C printer and is recommended for use with your
HP DeskJet 560C printer. Remember to select the HP DeskJet 550C as your printer
model when selecting a printer driver in Lotus(R) 1-2-3(R).
&d3D(s3BCopying the Driver Files&d@(s0B
Copying and installing the driver files for 1-2-3 is a 3-step process.
1. Copy the driver files (using the DRIVER.EXE program contained on the
"HP DeskJet 560C Printer Drivers for DOS applications" diskette) to the
1-2-3 directory on your hard disk. NOTE: The files that are copied and
decompressed are font files (*.LRF).
2. Run the INSTDRV.BAT utility contained on the "HP DeskJet 560C Printer
Drivers for DOS applications" diskette. This utility merges files
contained on the floppy with those present on your hard disk (in the 1-2-3
directory). (See below for instructions.)
3. Run the Lotus INSTALL program (on your hard disk) to add the drivers
to your library.
&d3D(s3BUsing the "INSTDRV.BAT" Utility&d@(s0B
Use the installation utility, "INSTDRV.BAT", contained on the "HP DeskJet 560C
Printer Drivers for DOS applications" diskette to copy the printer driver
files to the 1-2-3 directory on your hard disk.
1. Insert the DeskJet 560C DOS Driver Disk into a floppy drive.
2. From the DOS prompt on your floppy drive (e.g., A: or B:), run INSTDRV.BAT
by typing INSTDRV followed by the full path name of your 1-2-3 directory
and the letter of your floppy drive (the floppy drive where this disk is
located).
For example: INSTDRV C:\123R3 B ...then <Enter>.
In this example the B: drive is the floppy drive where the driver disk
is located. This batch file will copy all the necessary additional files
to the 1-2-3 subdirectory and will modify the INSTALL.DDF file already
present in the 1-2-3 subdirectory. The existing INSTALL.DDF file will be
renamed INSTALL.BAK.
&d3D(s3BUsing the Lotus(R) Install Program&d@(s0B
1. From the 1-2-3 directory on your hard disk type INSTALL ...then <Enter>.
(s3BNOTE:(s0B Make sure you have copied the WYSIWYG program to your hard
disk during the 1-2-3 installation. The following procedures will
vary slightly if you have not yet completed the Lotus Install program's
"First-Time Installation". We recommend that you complete the First-
Time Installation without installing printers, then follow the steps
below to modify your installation and set up your DeskJet 560C.
2. Highlight "Change Selected Equipment" ...then press <Enter>.
3. Highlight "Modify Current DCF" ...then press <Enter>.
4. Highlight "Change Selected Printer" ...then press <Enter>.
5. Highlight "HP" ...then press <Enter>.
6. Press the up arrow to select "HP DeskJet 550C" ...then press <Enter>.
7. Press <Enter> again to select "Paper".
(s3BNOTE:(s0B If you don't want to use transparencies with your printer,
you can skip to step #12. Otherwise continue with step #8.
8. Highlight "Change Selected Printer" ...then press <Enter>.
9. Highlight "HP" ...then press <Enter>.
10. Press the up arrow to select "HP DeskJet 550C" ...then press <Enter>.
11. Highlight "Transparency" ...then press <Enter>.
12. Press <Enter> (to Return to Menu).
13. Highlight "Save Changes" ...then press <Enter>.
14. Press <Enter> to accept the changes you've made.
15. At this point in the installation you may need to have your 1-2-3 master
disks available. Type the letter for the floppy disk drive you'll be
using ...then press <Enter>.
16. In the "Generating Fonts" opening screen press <Enter> to continue.
17. Highlight one of the font options ...then press <Enter>.
18. Highlight "Yes" ...then press <Enter>.
19. Press any key to complete the installation.
&d3D(s3BSetting Up 1-2-3&d@(s0B

2. Select Interface ...then use the arrow keys to select the port where
your printer is connected ...then press <Enter>. (SEE NOTE BELOW)
3. Select Pg-Length, type 60 (for US Ltr Paper), then press <Enter>.
4. Select Quit, Update ...to save your default settings ...then Quit.
&d3D(s3BPrinting From WYSIWYG&d@(s0B
The following steps assume that the WYSIWYG add-in program is loaded.
(If not, press Alt-F10 to load the WYSIWYG program.)

2. Select Print, Range, Set ...to select the cells you want to print.
3. Select Configuration, Printer ...then use the arrow keys to select
either "HP DeskJet 550C Paper" or "HP DeskJet 550C Transparency".
Press <Enter>.
4. Select the desired Resolution ...then press <Enter>.
(s3BNOTE:(s0B "Final" = 300 dots per inch resolution
"Draft" = 150 dots per inch resolution
5. Select Bin= "Single sheet".
6. Select Quit, then Go ...to print.
&d3D(s3BMiscellaneous Notes&d@(s0B
If you are using the parallel interface connection to your printer, the
printer interface within 1-2-3 should be set to selection 5, "Output
Device LPT1" rather than using the "Parallel 1" selection.
This driver was designed to support the graphic printing capabilities of
the DeskJet 560C printer in WYSIWYG mode. For best results when printing
ASCII text based spreadsheets, it is recommended that you use the
"DeskJet+,500" driver (shipped with 1-2-3) in the 1-2-3 Native Mode
for faster results.
