Printer use and VPC

External Since: Feb 27, 2005 Posts: 1

Any advice on how I may access the full range of capabilities of my Epson
2200 on VPC? Under printer device selection I am limited to plain paper or
transparency and no options for selecting photo-quality paper and higher
resolution. The VM Additions printer correctly points to the Epson but does
not offer any options of print quality or paper type as on the Mac side. TIA

If you want to use the full range of capabilities, I don't think you can
do it through the VM Additions printer. Instead, you need to install
the Windows driver into the Windows OS that you're running in VPC, so
that it can access the printer directly.
