July 1998 Printing 11 Printing 11 1 PostScript and Raster Modes Kodak printers with the PS extension support both PostScript and raster printing Models without the PS extension support only raster mode Kodak provides PostScript drivers for PostScript mode printing and export modules for raster mode printing from Macintosh and Windows platforms The Adobe Photoshop application must be purchased from Adobe for use with export modules plug ins 11 1 1 PostScript Drivers Printing in PostScript mode is supported by PostScript drivers for Kodak printers for most efficient generation of PostScript code Any PostScript driver can be used to generate PostScript files to send to a Kodak printer However these drivers may not produce code as efficiently as a Kodak driver Also generic PostScript drivers may not be able to support Kodak printer specific features unless your system uses product specific PPDs that any PostScript driver can access 11 1 2 Raster Drivers Raster mode is supported by a Kodak proprietary raster printing language that can generate printing code that is even more efficient than PostScript code generated by a Kodak driver 11 1 3 Language Efficiency vs Network and Printer Performance Kodak raster drivers and PostScript drivers for Kodak printers were developed with full knowledge of the architecture of Kodak printers Printer code generation efficiency is reflected as improvements in print file transfer s
