About Emulation

This chapter explains the PCL emulation of the printer.
Print data is data written based on certain rules (grammars). These rules (grammars) are
called "print languages".
The printer supports two types of print languages: page description language and
emulation. Page description language is a language that describes images on a page basis.
Emulation is the ability of this printer to imitate print results of other printers.

Emulation Mode

When printing data written in a language other than the page description languages
supported by the printer, switch the printer to an emulation mode. The printer has multiple
emulation modes and PCL is one of them. In the PCL emulation mode, the printer emulates
the following printer.
