Choose the Right Printer Driver for Your Needs
Choose a printer driver based on the way you use the printer.
• Use the PCL 6 driver to take full advantage of the printer’s
features. Unless backward compatibility with previous PCL
drivers or older printers is necessary, the PCL 6 driver is
recommended.
• Use the PCL 5e driver if you want print results to look comparable
to those from older printers. Certain features are not available in
this driver. (Do not use the PCL 5e driver provided with this printer
with older printers.)
• Use the PS driver for compatibility with PostScript Level 2 needs.
Certain features are not available in this driver.
The printer automatically switches between PS and PCL printer
languages.
Printer Driver Help
Each printer driver has help screens that can be activated either
from the Help button, the F1 key, or a question mark symbol in the
upper right corner in the printer driver (depending on the Windows
operating system used). These help screens give detailed
information about the specific driver. Printer driver help is separate
from the software application help.
