QMS also distributes its own PostScript driver for Windows 3.0. This driver
dated 11/03/93, must be used with the QMS PS-2200 and is available from QMS
technical support.
Using the Big Kiss Laser Printer with Windows
The Big Kiss laser printer supports Epson FX-80 emulation. If the Big Kiss
is using ROM version 3.0 or later, it supports Hewlett-Packard (HP)
LaserJet emulation.
If you have ROM version 3.0, you can check the startup page, which is
printed when you turn on the printer, to determine what emulation mode the
printer is using. Under Windows 3.0, 3.0a, or 3.1, install the printer
driver that corresponds with the emulation mode the printer is set to use.
If you do not have ROM version 3.0, you can obtain an update by contacting
QMS technical support. Ask for the parts department and order the "Big Kiss
ROM Upgrade."
The Kiss Plus also supports the same HP LaserJet and Epson emulation modes.
The printer needs the Kiss Module 20, 30, or 40 to support HP LaserJet
emulation. If you have Module 10, you can either upgrade the ROM, or
install the Epson FX-80 printer driver for Windows 3.0.
The Big Kiss II supports the Epson FX-80 emulation only. This is because
the HP LaserJet emulation does not support two paper trays.
