Emulation
Print data conforms to certain rules (grammars). These rules (grammars) are called printer
languages.
The device supports two types of printer languages: a page description language, which is
used to create images on a page-by-page basis, and an emulation, which is used to achieve
the print results similar to those of other printers.
Emulation Mode
When printing data written in a language other than a page description language
supported by the device, switch the device to the emulation mode. The relationships
between the emulation mode and the printer to be emulated are as follows:
ESC/P-K emulation mode (ESC/P-K mode)
HP-GL/2 emulation mode (HP-GL/2 mode)
Switching between Printer Languages
The device provides the multi-emulation feature that allows switching between different
printer languages.
The methods of switching between printer languages are as follows:
Switching by Commands
Commands for switching between printer languages are provided. Upon receipt of a
command, the device switches to the relevant printer language.
Automatic Switching
The device analyzes the data received by a host interface, and automatically identifies the
printer language to be used.
Protocol-dependent
You can set a printer language for each protocol (LPD, IPP, Port 9100, WSD) by using
CentreWare Internet Services.
Mode Menu Screen
Allows you to set the menu items for the emulation modes. To display the mode menu
screen, tap [Print Mode] on the Home screen to select the emulation mode to set.
Note
[Retrieve Programming], [Store / Delete Programming], and [Default Programming] are displayed for the
ESC/P mode and HP-GL/2 mode.
[Retrieve Programming]
Retrieves settings registered with memory.
Select [Factory Defaults] or select the number of stored setting from [Custom Settings].
