What is the EP emulation key?
FAQ

• The EP emulation key allows Horizon to receive
  images from Pegasys using the Codonics print
  driver provided on the Pegasys.
• This key is required for non-DICOM printer
  installations. Most Pegasys printer installations
  use this driver and therefore require this key.
• If you are replacing an NP series or EP series
  printer with a Horizon SF, you will very likely
  need this key.

36
Horizon prints using the printer driver are
consistently dark, regardless of the settings in
the printers KDU (front panel).
FAQ

• Create a Custom Job Setting in the Horizon called
  RAW_JS and change the LUT setting to Visual
• 1. Press and hold the left arrow button ( ? )
  while pressing the Menu button. Release both
  buttons.
• 2. Press the down arrow ( ? ) to the Custom Job
  Settings menu and press Enter.
• 3. Select New
• 4. Select Name
• 5. Press the left (? ?) and right arrows
  simultaneously to blank out the MYSETTINGS name.
• 6. Using the up and down arrows, ( ? ? ) enter
  the name RAW_JS and press Enter.
• 7. Arrow down to LUT and press Enter.
• 8. Change LUT to Visual and press Enter.
• 9. Press Menu to exit.
• The rest of the image settings (gamma, contrast,
  saturation) may also be controlled from this
  menu.

37
Where are the larger page size formats in the
printer driver setup?
FAQ

• The Codonics Printer Driver supports small-format
  (8x10 and A-size) printing only.
• Large format printing must be done using DICOM.

38
The Horizon is prompting for 8x10 CV Paper. Where
can I get this?
FAQ

• This is not a valid media combination.
• Check the Codonics configuration screen (either
  through DICOM or the driver, depending on your
  installation.)
• Make sure that both the media size and the media
  type are set up correctly.
• Additionally, through DICOM make sure the AE
  Title is a-cvp or a4-cvp, as appropriate.

39
The Print Preview screen refuses to activate when
using DICOM.
FAQ

• Turn Print Preview off and re-start.
• Go into the DICOM configuration
• Turn off Print Preview.
• Exit Configuration.
• Re-enter configuration
