PostScript emulation and PCL emulation.
Using the control panel or MarkVision Enterprise
You may select PostScript emulation from the control panel or through MarkVision Enterprise. To disable the
automatic switching and have all input interpreted as PostScript language, turn off PCL SmartSwitch and set
the printer language default to PostScript emulation. See your printer documentation for information on
changing menu settings.
