Printer Drivers
Printer drivers access the printer’s features and allow the computer to
communicate with the printer. Choose a printer driver based on the
way you use the printer.
!
Use the PCL 6 driver to take full advantage of the printer’s
features. Unless complete backward compatibility with previous
PCL drivers or older printers is necessary, the PCL 6 driver is
recommended.
!
Use the PCL 5e driver if you need print results to look consistent
with those from older HP LaserJet printers. Certain features are
not available in this driver. (Do not use the PCL 5e driver provided
with this printer with older printers.)
!
Use the PS driver for compatibility with PS needs. Certain printer
features are not available in this driver.
If your printer has PS capabilities, the printer automatically switches
between PS emulation and PCL printer languages depending on the
driver you have selected.
Each printer driver has help screens that can be activated from the
Help button, the F1 key, or a question mark symbol in the upper right
corner of 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.
