On* Printer examines data on the serial interface and selects PCL emulation if the data indicates
that is the required printer language.
Off Printer does not examine the incoming data. The printer uses PostScript emulation to
process the job if PS SmartSwitch is On, or uses the default printer language specified in the
Setup Menu if PS SmartSwitch is Off.
