Preface
The Level 2 Programming Supplement contains supplemental information
about Digital’s ANSI-Compliant Printing Protocol level 2 (DEC PPL2). This
manual contains information that is specific to the Digital printers that
implement this protocol. It is assumed that the reader has the Digital ANSI-
Compliant Printing Protocol Level 2 Programming Reference Manual, which
provides general information about DEC PPL2.
Purpose of this Manual
This manual provides device-specific information for Digital ANSI-Compliant
Printing Protocol level 2 (DEC PPL2) on the LA75 Plus Companion Printer,
the LA310 MultiPrinter, and the LA600 MultiPrinter.
Intended Audience for this Manual
The Level 2 Programming Supplement is for programmers interested in:
• Creating applications for specific Digital ANSI-Compliant Printing Protocol
level 2 printers.
• Understanding how and why documents may appear different if printed on
different Digital printers.
Organization of this Manual
This manual is divided into four parts:
• Part 1 contains device-specific information about the implementation of
DEC PPL2 for the LA75 Plus Companion printer.
• Part 2 contains device-specific information about the implementation of
DEC PPL2 for the LA310 MultiPrinter.
• Part 3 contains device-specific information about the implementation of
DEC PPL2 for the LA600 MultiPrinter.
