Introduction The PRESCRIBE emulation option for Lexmark laser printers is an extended version of the firmware that includes a PRESCRIBE language processor. It enables the printer to be an effective replacement for Kyocera printers in select large accounts where the PRESCRIBE printer language is used. Since Kyocera does not offer a single standard version of PRESCRIBE across all of its products, the emulation compatibility of this version is based on testing with customer application test files and an extensive set of engineering commandlevel tests. This technical reference manual describes the capabilities of the PRESCRIBE emulation option and highlights the key limitations, which customers must consider in their certification testing.

Introduction
The PRESCRIBE emulation option for Lexmark laser printers is an extended version of the firmware that includes a
PRESCRIBE language processor. It enables the printer to be an effective replacement for Kyocera printers in select large
accounts where the PRESCRIBE printer language is used.
Since Kyocera does not offer a single standard version of PRESCRIBE across all of its products, the emulation compatibility
of this version is based on testing with customer application test files and an extensive set of engineering command-
level tests.
This technical reference manual describes the capabilities of the PRESCRIBE emulation option and highlights the key
limitations, which customers must consider in their certification testing.

Installing the PRESCRIBE emulation option
Note:
Installing the option may restore your printer to factory default settings. Before installing, print a Menu Settings
page so that any non-default settings can be restored.
For more information on installing and uninstalling the PRESCRIBE emulation option, see the installation instructions
that came with the option, or the printer
User's Guide
.
After installing the option, set up the PRESCRIBE FRPO (Firmware RePrOgram) defaults to match the Kyocera default
setup on the applications. Many accounts use the Kyocera factory default settings and may not require further setup.
For more information on the FRPO settings supported by the PRESCRIBE emulation option, see “FRPO: Firmware
RePrOgram” on page 12.
To verify installation, print a Print Menus page from the printer control panel. Under the Printer Information section,
there should be an entry for the PRESCRIBE emulation option (example: “P-Scribe = P41F”). The second page that prints
is a PRESCRIBE emulation STAT page with the current FRPO permanent settings.
Flash memory and hard disk support
PRESCRIBE downloaded fonts (LDFC) and PRESCRIBE macros can be stored on either the flash memory or the printer
hard disk. Programming is done using the Resource Save setting.
Note:
The ICCD and WRED commands are not supported.
