About the Printer Drivers
The PCL 6 Printer Drivers
The PCL 6 printer drivers are installed on Windows operating systems to provide a
standard interface between an application program and the printer. By installing these
printer drivers, print jobs are converted into the PJL and PCL 6 printer languages and
then printed through the printer device.
These printer drivers are system specific, each will only run on either Windows 95/98/
Me, or Windows NT 4.0/Windows 2000. There are altogether two different printer
drivers provided:
• PCL 6 printer driver for Windows 95/98/Me
• PCL 6 printer driver for Windows NT 4.0/Windows 2000
Installation/Configuration Methods
The methods of installing/configuring these different printer drivers as well as the
procedures for printing using these drivers are basically the same. Regardless of the
operating system (OS) you are using, the basic steps are similar except for the look of
some of the dialog boxes. Only one printer driver will be used to discuss these
operations in this chapter but any differences among these drivers will be pointed out.
Settings on the Printer
Make sure the PJL switch for the interface is turned to ON. If the PJL switch is turned
to OFF, the following functions will be disabled:
• Collate
• Staple
• Punch
• Image Enhancement
To turn the PJL switch:
1. Select Settings/Meter Check on the control panel of the printer.
2. Select Tools Mode in LCD display.
3. Select Print/Scan Mode Setting.
4. Select Port Settings.
5. Select IPP.
And you can reach to the PJL Switch.
