TOPIC

    In the Macintosh version of AppleWorks, I have several print options that do not appear in the Windows version. Why is this?


DISCUSSION

    Many print options are specific to the printer driver used. Different printers yield different print options even on the same operating system.

    For example, under Mac OS the LaserWriter 8 printer driver offers options for layout, font settings, and color matching while the StyleWriter 1200 driver does not. In turn, the StyleWriter 1200 driver offers a watermarks feature which is not available using LaserWriter 8.

    In addition, the same model printer may offer different options when used on different platforms (Mac OS, Windows, UNIX, and so forth) since different platforms use different print drivers to print to the same printer model.

    Customers interested in print features that are not available when using a particular printer driver should provide feedback to the manufacturer of the driver.
