CHAPTER 4: PostScript Emulation
This section explains PostScript emulation supplemental operators in detail. For more
information, refer to the PostScript Language Reference Manual (Third Edition) by
Adobe Systems, Inc.
To determine which commands your printer supports, see Appendix C: “PostScript
Support” on page C-1.
Selecting PostScript Emulation
Using SmartSwitch
When SmartSwitch is enabled for both printer languages on an interface, the printer
automatically switches to the printer language being sent by your software program.
The printer is shipped with SmartSwitch enabled for both printer languages and all
interfaces. The printer examines all print jobs and switches dynamically between
PostScript emulation and PCL emulation.
Using the Operator Panel or MarkVision Professional
You may select PostScript emulation from the printer operator panel or through
MarkVision Professional. To disable the automatic switching and have all input
interpreted as PostScript language, turn PCL SmartSwitch
Off
and set the printer
language default to PostScript emulation. Refer to your printer user documentation for
information on changing menu settings.
