   INSTALLATION

      The following steps are intended to be a brief overview of how to
      install the HIRTL plotter driver.  For complete instructions, refer
      to your Windows User's Guide.


      Windows 3.1 installation

      1) Run Windows and from the Control Panel, choose Printers.

      2) Select "Add" printer.

      3) Under the list of available printers, select "Install Unlisted
	 or Updated Printer."

      4) Select "Install."

      5) Install the driver disc into drive A or B, then enter A:\
         or B:\.

      6) Select your plotter model from the displayed list.

      7) To make your plotter the default printer, select "Set As
         Default Printer."

      8) Select "Connect" to specify port settings.

	 Note: Driver configuration data is saved in the WIN.INI file
	       on a per port basis.  If you select a different port at
	       a later date, you will need to reconfigure the driver for
	       that particular port via "Setup."

      9) Select "Setup" to configure the driver.  Select a paper size
         under the "Media Size" list box.

         Note: The paper size selected under "Media Size" MUST match
               the paper size used in the plotter.

     10) If the plotter is connected to a serial port, choose Ports
	 from the Control Panel and configure the port to match the
         plotters communication parameters.




   SPECIAL NOTES:

      +) If a chart size can be loaded as either half chart or full
	 chart, load the chart as full chart. An example is a D size
	 chart on an E size plotter.  The plotter's pinch roller should
	 be set to the D size position (NOT the E position) and the chart
	 loaded as full chart.

      +) The following tables list the device margins and logical
         page margins for half chart and full chart orientations:

         SummaJet 2 Series:

            +) Device Margins:

               Front: 1.40"
               Back:  0.40"
               Left:  0.50"
               Right: 0.50"

            +) Logical Page Margins:

               Half Chart Orientation - Driver set to Portrait:
                  Left:   1.40"
                  Right:  0.40"
                  Top:    0.50"
                  Bottom: 0.50"

               Half Chart Orientation - Driver set to Landscape:
                  Left:   0.50"
                  Right:  0.50"
                  Top:    1.40"
                  Bottom: 0.40"

               Full Chart Orientation - Driver set to Portrait:
                  Left:   0.50"
                  Right:  0.50"
                  Top:    1.40"
                  Bottom: 0.40"

               Full Chart Orientation - Driver set to Landscape:
                  Left:   1.40"
                  Right:  0.40"
                  Top:    0.50"
                  Bottom: 0.50"

         ie: If you are using Excel and the driver is configured for
             an A size (half chart) portrait sheet, the margins under
             "Page Setup" should be set to: Top = 0.50", Bottom = 0.50",
             Left = 1.40" and Right = 0.40".

      +) Negative Motion:  The printer will normally compose an
         entire page in memory before printing.  This allows for
         multiple raster images or for mixed raster and vector on
         a single page.  If you are printing a single raster image,
         you can enable this option and the printer will begin
         printing immediately without waiting for the entire image.
         With this feature you can print images that would normally
         be too large to fit in the printers memory.  This option
         should be enabled for applications like Adobe Photoshop
         where you are printing a single bitmap.  This option should
         be disabled for CAD applications or applications like Corel
         Draw or Micrografix Designer where you have mixed raster
         and vector.

      +) Gamma Correction: Enable this feature to lighten the print.

      +) Intensity: Use this feature to control the intensity of the print.

      +) Color: When disabled, all colors get converted to grayscale.

      +) If you receive the message "The Print Manager cannot write to
	 COM#", increase the Transmission Retry value to 150 or more
	 in the Printers Configure dialog box.
