PCL6 Printer Driver

There are two PCL6 property windows for computers
running the Windows NT 4.0 operating system.
• The NEC SuperScript 1800 PCL6 Properties window
• The NEC SuperScript 1800 PCL6 Default window
The PCL6 Properties window contains driver properties that
are used by all software applications on your computer. It can
be opened from the Windows NT 4.0 Printers window.
The PCL6 Default window can only be opened from inside a
software application. The default properties only affect the
open document within the software application.

The NEC SuperScript 1800 PCL6 Properties window contains
tabs that divide the PCL6 driver properties into six
categories.

• Ports
• Scheduling
• Sharing

Figures shown on the next page display each tab in the NEC
SuperScript 1800 PCL6 Properties window.
