Changing printer language mode
The Phaser 220 supports the following printer languages: PostScript Level 1
and Level 2, HP-GL (Hewlett-Packard Graphics Language), and PCL5
(Printer Command Language).
In the factory default conÞguration, the printer expects to receive PostScript
data on all ports. If you want to use an HP-GL application, you must
explicitly set up a printer port for HP-GL data, or enable Adobe
IntelliSellectª
automatic language selection . If you want to use a PCL5
application, you must enable automatic language selection on a port.
Changing the language of the printer between PostScript, HP-GL, and PCL5
is port-speciÞc. The ports, such as parallel, serial, or LocalTalk, can each be
conÞgured differently. You can change the default language on any port so
whenever the printer is turned on it expects to receive PostScript, HP-GL, or
PCL5 data on a speciÞc port. If automatic language selection is enabled on a
particular port, it becomes the default on that port, allowing you to change
back and forth between PostScript, HP-GL, and PCL5. Changes to the
language on any port are persistent across print jobs and across printer
power cycles.
Note The following Þles affect printer operation. If the printer is shared
on a network, using these Þles may affect the prints requested
from other users.
■
If you want to print PostScript Þles, use the PSCRIPT.PS Þle to set
up a port to receive PostScript.
■
If you want to print HP-GL Þles, use the HPGL.PS Þle to set up a
port to receive HP-GL.
■
If you want to print PCL5 Þles, use the AIS.PS Þle to set up a port
for automatic language selection.
