Note EN Choose the right printer driver for your needs Choose a printer driver based on the way you use the printer. q Use the PCL 6 driver to take full advantage of the printer's features. Unless backward compatibility with previous PCL drivers or older printers is necessary, the PCL 6 driver is recommended. q Use the PCL 5e driver if you want print results to look comparable to those from older printers, or for font DIMM support. q Use the PS driver for compatibility with PostScript Level 2. Certain features are not available in this driver. q The printer automatically switches between PS and PCL printer languages. Printer driver help Each printer driver has help screens that can be activated either from the Help button, the F1 key, or a question mark symbol in the upper right corner in the printer driver (depending on the Windows operating system used). These help screens give detailed information about the specific driver. Printer driver help is separate from the software application help.
