FAQ: Which Printers Are Supported with the ArcPress Printer Engine in ArcGIS Desktop 9.2?

Answer

The ArcPress engine has its own set of printer drivers known as the ArcPress Printer drivers. These drivers were created by ESRI in collaboration with printer manufacturers, and are designed to support a specific list of printer models. The following document lists the ArcPress drivers and the printer models each driver supports. Printer models listed here are supported by ESRI for use with the ArcPress Printer Engine in ArcGIS Desktop 9.2. Please note that support for some printer models may require a service pack to be installed on top of ArcGIS 9.2.

Note:
About the ArcPress Printer Engine

The ArcPress Printer Engine provides a set of printer drivers that draws the map in the native language of the selected printer. The native-language draw instructions are then sent to the printer, which can easily place ink on the page without subsequent heavy processing. The ArcPress engine bypasses the Windows printing pipeline and allows for fast and reliable printing of large or complex maps. Use the ArcPress Printer Engine when a map is too complex or too large to print successfully with the Windows Printer Engine.
