Introduction 27
Chapter 5: Principle of Operation
This section explains how the Windows BLL Generator and WinRascol work together to produce film
output.
Introduction
WinRascol consists of two software components:
•
WinRascol32:
The queue and print manager. It queues print jobs and sends them to the film
recorder. WinRascol32 is the same program on Windows 95, Windows 98 and Windows NT.
•
WinRascol Printer Driver, or Windows BLL Generator:
The printer driver is used when you
invoke the
Print
command from within a Windows application. Due to architectural differences
between Windows 95/98 and Windows NT, there need to be separate printer drivers for each
type of operating system.
There are several different ways to use WinRascol:
• The user on a PC with a film recorder attached can print by:
• Printing directly from an application with the WinRascol Printer Driver, or
• Adding image files directly to the queue with WinRascol32.
• The user on a PC
without a film recorder can:
• Print from an application with the Windows BLL Generator to make BLL files, or
• Save images in one of the formats that WinRascol supports directly.
