Your System Administrator may have loaded a specific print driver on your computer. However, if
the choice of driver is yours, the following information may help you decide which driver to install.
• PS (PostScript) gives you the most options to scale and manipulate images; it offers more
precision with high-end graphics. PostScript also provides you with different types of error-
handling and font substitution options.
PCL (Printer Control Language) generally has fewer advanced features than PostScript. PCL
•
drivers process most jobs faster than other drivers. This driver is suitable for most every-day
printing tasks.
• XPS (XML Paper Specification) is an open specification for a page description language and
a fixed document format originally developed by Microsoft. Use this driver to improve the
speed and quality of XPS files that you print.
• Mac is a PostScript driver that has been specifically designed to work on Macs.
Note: The device is enabled for AirPrint. AirPrint is Apple's driverless printing technology that
enables Apple devices, including Macs, phones and tablets, to print to the device without installing
drivers or downloading software.
