Problem Description:
Key Words: printer, workstation, setup

Urgency: Standard

General Description:
How do I setup a workstation version of the Hardware Debugger
to print?


Solution 1:


1. Open a Waveform window and select PRINT on main menu.
   A Print Dialog is displayed. If you see your printer
   name shown on the dialog, you don't need to go further.
   Just make sure that "[] Print to File" is not checked
   otherwise your waveform output will go to a file. To
   setup a new printer continue to step 2.

2. Select the SETUP... button on the Print Dialog to
   invoke the Printer Setup Dialog.

3. Check "[] Printer Specific" and select the
   Install... button to invoke Printer Install dialog.

4. Select Add Printer... to bring up another
   Printer AddOn dialog and if the printer's port is not
   defined on the list, you need to select Define New Port...

5. On the New Port dialog, select Spooler to add all
   available printers. Choose Cancel to go back to
   Printer Add On dialog and select the printer model and
   the Port on the lists. Select Add Selected to add the printer
   to the system. You can 'Dismiss' all dialogs to return
   back to Printer Setup dialog.  In the Printer Setup
   dialog, select Options to select the newly installed
   printer.
