HP-GL/2 Printing

This printer supports printing using the original Canon GARO printer control language and printing using HP-GL/2

and HP RTL emulation to print in colors resembling the colors produced by printers from other companies.

The printer automatically switches to the corresponding processing depending on whether a GARO or HP-GL/2

and HP RTL emulation job is received.

GARO is an abbreviation of Graphic Arts Language with Raster Operations.

HP-GL/2 is an abbreviation of Hewlett-Packard Graphics Language/2, and HP RTL is an abbreviation of Hewlett-

Packard Raster Transfer Language.

Emulation is good for obtaining results similar to printing on other printers.

When printing from applications that support HP-GL/2 output, specify HP-GL/2 in the application's plotter output

HP-GL/2 and HP RTL emulation related settings such as the printer to emulate are configured from the printer Con-

trol Panel. (Refer to " Menu Structure

For instructions on configuring these settings, refer to the software documentation.

It may not be possible to print jobs with excessively large amounts of data correctly.
