Print-Driver Discussion
The PCL and PostScript print drivers do not have the same user interface. This is a minor disadvantage, as it
complicates support and training since users may have to learn how to use two user interfaces. Additionally, the
print drivers do not provide bi-directional communication. Instead, users must consult Internet Services in order to
see if the device is ready, to view installed paper sizes, etc. Finally, the user interface of the Adobe PostScript
print driver (Figure 4) is rather difficult to use for programming advanced features. However, the interface is the
same as nearly every other Adobe PostScript print drivers so users who have PostScript experience will have no
problems programming the print driver.
