Printer Emulation Support (For DCP-7070DW and MFC-7860DW)

Your machine will receive print commands in a printer job language or emulation. Different operating systems
and applications will send the print commands in different languages. Your machine can receive print
commands in a variety of emulations and has an automatic emulation selection feature. When the machine
receives data from the computer, it automatically chooses the emulation mode. The default setting is Auto.
Your machine has the following emulation modes. You can change the setting by using the control panel or
a web browser.
 HP LaserJet Mode
The HP LaserJet mode (or HP mode) is the emulation mode in which this printer supports the PCL6
language of a Hewlett-Packard LaserJet laser printer. Many applications support this type of laser printer.
Using this mode will allow your machine to run at its best with those applications.
 BR-Script 3 Mode (Not available for DCP-7070DW)
BR-Script is an original Brother page description language and a PostScript
interpreter. This machine supports PostScript
to control text and graphics on the page.
