PRINTER LANGUAGES: POSTSCRIPT, HP-GL
181
Printer languages: PostScript, HP-GL
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 Diff
erent Printer Language Modes or Tektronix’ 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 def
ault HP-GL pen
colors or Tektronix’ World Wide Web site for instructions.
