PCL6 and PCLXL
±
PCL6 is the next generation of the Hewlett-Packard LaserJet
PCL language. PCL XL is a new page description language
by Hewlett-Packard that is part of PCL6.
PCL XL is designed
to optimally match the graphics printing requirements for
GUI-based applications, reducing the number of commands
required to describe a graphics page.
±
The output from an enhanced PCL XL driver may not be the
same as the output from a standard PCL6 driver.
If the
output is not as expected, the recommended solution is to
print using a PCL5e driver instead.
±
DocuSP 3.7x supports printing PCL XL class 2.1 for color
and PCL XL class 2.0 for the black and white printing
products.
±
XPPS 3.7 does not provide a PCL XL (PCL6) Xerox custom
printer driver.
In order to take advantage of the PCL XL
features, a native HP PCL XL driver will have to be used.
Ensure the driver chosen supports the same class of PCL as
the DocuSP.
±
Even with an HP PCL XL driver that supports the same class
of PCL as the DocuSP, some minor compatibility issues may
be seen due to commands within the PCL that are not
supported on the DocuSP controller. Contact your Xerox
customer support representative for assistance if necessary.
±
Native HP PCL drivers do not support all of the features of
the DocuSP-based printer.
Any printer specific features can
be programmed at the DocuSP controller after the job has
been submitted.
±
DocuSP 3.7x still supports printing PCL 5e and the Xerox
custom PCL 5e drivers are still available for use.
Note: At this time, there are known problems with PCL XL on the
DocuSP controller.
Xerox encourages your customer to evaluate
job printing and integrity using PCL XL.
Any and all feedback is
welcome and appreciated.
