Two modes of Epson GL/2 Epson GL/2 mode has two operational modes. One is the LJ3-GL/2 mode, another is the GL-like mode. Q LJ3-GL/2 mode This mode emulates GL/2 mode of the HP LaserJet series III emulation. While in this mode you can enter GL/2 mode without sending the ESC %#B (Enter GL/2 mode) command. If your application software cannot send the ESC %#B command, then use this mode. If your application software supports LaserJet series printers, you do not need to use this mode. P GL-like mode This mode emulates some of the HP-GL® plotter commands. It features all of the commands of the LJ3-GL/2 mode, plus two additional commands.
