SELECTING AN EMULATION Before printing with your software, verify that the correct emulation is
selected on your printer. This section describes the available
emulations and their selection.
For Experienced Users:
The printer’s preselected factory setting is the Fujitsu DPL24C PLUS
emulation. If this emulation is acceptable, you may skip this section.
An emulation is a set of commands used by your software to communi-
cate with the printer. There are many different emulations available for
printers. Each emulation has unique features and capabilities. This
printer offers three resident emulations:
Fujitsu DPL24C PLUS (for Fujitsu DL-series printers)
IBM Proprinter XL24E
Epson ESC/P2
Resident emulations are stored in the printer’s permanent memory.
Here are some points to help you determine which emulation to select:
Determine which emulations your software supports. (Refer to
your software documentation.) Since most software programs
support this printer, try to run a program with the factory
default emulation first. (DPL24C␣PLUS emulation is the factory
default.) Try this emulation even if you are not sure of which
emulation to choose. See Chapter 5 for detailed information
about how your printer communicates with your software.
