Advanced Printer Options Dialog

When you select a supported printer in the Printer list, several printer optimization options are listed in the Advanced Printer Options dialog. The options that are available depend on the printer that you select and include the following:

• Allow static graphics: Specifies that BarTender uses the printer's static graphics feature to store the specifications for all raster-type graphic objects that are printed out exactly the same from item to item, including TrueType fonts.

• Allow static objects: Specifies that BarTender uses the printer's static objects feature to store the specifications for all objects that are printed exactly the same from item to item, whether or not they are raster graphics. 其中包括打印机字体、条形码、导入的图形和 TrueType 字体。

• Allow serialization: 指定 BarTender 在任何适合的情况下使用指定打印机的内置递增功能。

• Allow variable data optimization: 指定将使用打印机的数据合并功能来存储文档的格式规格（对象位置、符号体系、字体等），以便只需传送对象数据。

• Allow graphics caching: Specifies that the printer driver uses the storage capabilities in the printer by keeping track of graphics that were previously printed.

• Allow template caching: Specifies that the printer driver uses the storage capabilities in the printer by keeping track of all templates that were previously printed.

• Warn when using TrueType fonts: Specifies that when BarTender is configured to print TrueType fonts on a thermal printer, it displays a reminder that TrueType fonts can adversely affect printing speed, particularly when you are using a printer that has a serial printer port.

  TrueType 字体是作为图形（而不是作为下载字体）传送到感热打印机的。由于感热打印机只能递增被处理成字体的数据，因此不能使用打印机内置的序列化功能递增 TrueType 字体。如果希望将模板上的某个对象序列化并利用打印机的序列化功能，则必须使用打印机的内置字体之一。

When you select PDF in the Printer list, the following options are available:

• 在打印时选择： Specifies that at print time, the Print to File dialog is displayed, which the print operator can use to specify a path and file name to save the output file to.

• Generate file name: Specifies that at print time, the path and file name where the PDF output file is saved are generated automatically. 以下是可用的选项：

• 文件夹： Specifies the folder in which the output file is saved. You can enter the folder path in the field or click Browse to locate the folder that you want to use. 也可以“添加变量”，或者向输入的值“添加特殊字符”。

• 文件名： Specifies the file name of the PDF output file. You can enter a name in this field. 也可以“添加变量”，或者向输入的值“添加特殊字符”。

• When File Exists: Specifies what you want to happen when a file exists that has the same path and file name as the file that is being saved. 以下是可用的选项：

  • 使其唯一： 指定将序列化数字附加到新文件的文件名。

  • Overwrite: Specifies that the existing file is replaced with the new file.
