xiv Introduction
• Support for PCL and PostScript
PCL (Printer Control Language) and PostScript are both page description languages—
computer languages that control the transfer of information from the computer to the
controller. Both PCL and PostScript, along with separate sets of fonts, are standard
with the Pi6500 Pro.
• Support for Windows (SMB) printing
Windows printing, also known as SMB (Server Message Block) printing, allows you to
print on TCP/IP networks using built-in Microsoft networking support and without
additional network software. Printing using SMB allows you to print from your
computer to a particular connection (Hold, Print, or Direct) on the Pi6500 Pro.
