This document describes how to access the extended features of the WorkCentre 77xx Series in environments for which
Xerox does not make a custom driver.

Feature Listing
PCL and ASCII print jobs can use PJL commands or PCL commands to access the attributes of the device. If there is more
than one method listed to access a specific feature, determine the best method for your application and use that method.
PostScript print jobs can use Document Structuring Commands (DSC) or PS commands. If there is more than one method
listed to access a specific feature, determine the best method for your application and use that method.
