Common PCL Printer Commands
PCL Printer Commands (Escape Sequences)
Most software applications do not require you to enter printer
commands. See your computer and software documentation to find the
method to use for entering printer commands, if needed.
PCL printer commands tell the printer which tasks to perform or which
fonts to use. This appendix is not intended to provide complete
information about PCL commands, only to provide a quick reference for
users who are already familiar with PCL command structure.
Note
The table at the end of this appendix contains commonly used PCL
commands. For a complete listing and explanation of how to form PCL,
HP-GL/2, and PJL commands, order the PCL/PJL Technical Reference
Package, which is described in the “Supplementary Documents” section
at the beginning of this manual (see the HP Support pages at the front of
this manual for ordering information).
