NOTE: Driver CD 3.0 was released around Dec 1, 2004.
New Products:
Pentax is pleased to announce the addition of 2 new printers to the PocketJet Family—The PocketJet 3 and PocketJet 3plus.
· These printers have built-in USB and IRDA interfaces.
· In addition to supporting the same raster language as PocketJet II/200, these printers also support ESC/P, which allows them to print ASCII text directly or to be used with devices which have a built-in ESC/P driver.
· PocketJet 3 is 200 dpi resolution.
· PocketJet 3plus is 300 dpi resolution.
· They are supported on most of the same PDA and PC device platforms as PocketJet II and 200. The supported platforms include Windows 95 (Irda only), Windows 98/Me, Windows 2K/XP, Windows CE/CE.NET, PocketPC, PalmOS, Symbian, Mac OSX, and Linux.
New Solutions for all 4 printers:
· Mac OSX is now supported with a CUPS-raster driver, which will make printing Images and WebPages faster than when using the previously released OSX driver. Support for PocketJet 3 and 3plus was added.
· Linux is now supported with both an LPD and CUPS solution. Also, the LPD solution provides a new User Interface and support for “auto-detecting” the data stream to allow printing PostScript, Text (PJ3/3plus only), and PBM data automatically. Support for PocketJet 3 and 3plus was added to both LPD and CUPS solutions.
· Windows CE driver now supports Windows CE.NET 4.x devices. And, on CE.NET, the driver supports the USB and IRDA interfaces for all 4 printers. The CE driver (before CE.NET) only supports IRDA and Serial interfaces.
· Symbian drivers added support for PocketJet 3 and PocketJet 3plus printers, and made some changes to the User Interface layout to accommodate the new printers.
