2.2.4.2 Drivers for Windows Users
The DEClaser 5100 printer supports Adobe PostScript Level 2 and also
provides Enhanced PCL5 emulation if you require it. This section contains
information about the PostScript and PCL drivers.
PostScript Drivers
A PostScript printer driver is supplied with the DEClaser 5100 printer and
should be used as the first choice. Although other PostScript drivers may work
with the DEClaser 5100 printer, you should install the driver included with
the printer, which takes maximum advantage of the DEClaser 5100 printer
features and performance.
Install the printer driver according to the Adobe Printer Driver User Guide
(Windows Version) that comes with the diskettes labeled ‘‘PostScript.’’ Refer to
your MS-Windows documentation for additional information about installing
and selecting printer drivers.
This completes the installation of the printer for PostScript users. See the
DEClaser 5100 Printer User’s Guide for information on printer features and
operation.
PCL Drivers
Although a PCL printer driver is not included with the DEClaser 5100 printer,
you can use alternate drivers to operate the printer. Alternate drivers let you
use your printer but may not support all of its features. PCL users can use any
of the following drivers that come with or are available for Windows 3.1:
• HP LaserJet 4
• HP LaserJet IIIP, III, IIP
NOTE
PostScript is the default interpreter for the serial interface setting in
the Communications sub-menu. You must set the interpreter to PCL
or Automatic if you are using the serial port before printing. Refer to
the Communications sub-menu in Appendix A of your User’s Guide for
additional information about communication settings for your printer.
Refer to your Windows documentation for information about installing and
selecting printer drivers.
This completes the installation of the printer for PCL users. See the DEClaser
5100 Printer User’s Guide for information about printer features and operation.
