The printer supports PostScript Level 1 and Level 2, and HP-GL (Hewlett-Packard Graphics Language) printer languages. The default language for the parallel port is PostScript. For information on default language for other interface ports, refer to the PhaserShare Network Cards and Software System Administrator Manual.
If you want to print HP-GL files on a port set to PostScript, you must set up that printer port for that type of data or enable Adobe IntelliSelect automatic language selection. Refer to Using Different Printer Language Modes or Xerox' World Wide Web site for instructions.
If automatic language selection is enabled, you can send PostScript and HP-GL files (when enabled) to the printer and the printer automatically detects the type of file and prints it. You can change the default language so that the next time you turn on the printer, it is set to receive PostScript or HP-GL data on a specific port.
The printer has default values for the HP-GL parameters, such as pen color and pen width. However, you can change these values. Refer to Setting default HP-GL pen colors or Xerox' World Wide Web site for instructions.
