Notes:
EPSON GL/2 mode has two operational modes. One is LJ4-GL/2 mode; the other is the
GL-like mode.
LJ4-GL/2 mode emulates the GL/2 mode in the HP LaserJet 4 emulation. The user can
print with software that supports the HP 7600 series plotter.
The GL-like mode features all the commands of the LJ4-GL/2 mode, plus a few additional
commands. The GL-like mode emulates some of the HP-GL
plotter (HP 7475A, etc.)
commands. If the application software uses unsupported commands for the GL-like
mode, print cannot be assured.
