Overview
Welcome to the on-line manual for the Kodak Professional 8650/8660
raster driver for Windows 95/98. You can use this printer driver with the
Kodak Professional 8660 thermal printer (8660 printer) and the Kodak
Digital ScienceTM 8650 color printer (8650 printer). The printer driver
provides access to the printers’features through the raster path.
Previously, you could only use the export module to send Photoshop jobs
to the printers. With this printer driver, you can send jobs to the printers
from most applications.
About the Printer Driver
The printer driver is software that allows the software applications you
use to access the printer’s features. For example, your application
determines the page breaks, font selection, and page setup for your print
job. The printer driver translates this information into a printer language
such as Adobe PostScript or Kodak raster language and sends the job to
the printer. The printer driver’s graphical user interface gives you access
to additional printing options that are not available from your software
application.
You can access the features for the printer driver from the print and page
setup commands in the application you are using. You can also access
the features from the Start menu using the Settings>Printers command.

Features of the Printer Driver
The printer driver gives you the following printing options that are not
available directly from your software application:
Print Preview
The printer driver’s interface includes a preview window that displays a
proportional model of the last image you sent to the printer. The image in
the preview window changes as you change the settings for features such
as package printing or custom color adjustments.
Adding a Logo
You can add a logo of your choice to your document page and adjust its
placement on the page.
Package Printing
Package printing was previously available only through the export module
for the 8660 printer and is now available to both printers through the
printer driver. With package printing, you send a single document page to
the printer and get multiple sizes on your print. You can select from
several preformatted packages.
Color Management
The printer driver lets you choose how to manage the color in your
document pages. You can make prints using the printer’s default color and
then adjust the color settings in the Advanced Color dialog box. You can
also use the Kodak ColorFlow color connector software to apply color
