2-1 PCL CHAPTER 2: PCL Emulation When you select PCL emulation as the printer language, the printer supports the Hewlett-Packard Company's LaserJet Printer Command Language. This chapter shows how to select PCL emulation and discusses PCL emulation commands, along with resident PCL emulation font and symbol set support. To determine which commands your printer supports, see Appendix A: "PCL Support" on page A-1. Selecting PCL Emulation Using SmartSwitch When SmartSwitch is enabled for both printer languages on an interface (for example, Parallel, USB, Serial Option 1, or Network Option 1), the printer automatically switches to the printer language being sent by your software program. The printer is shipped with SmartSwitch enabled for both printer languages in all interfaces. The printer examines all print jobs and switches dynamically between PostScript emulation and PCL emulation. Using the Operator Panel or MarkVision Professional If SmartSwitch is set to Off for both printer languages, you can select PCL emulation from your printer operator panel or from MarkVision™ Professional. See your printer documentation for information on changing menu settings.
