Three printer drivers are supplied with your printer: one for PCL5c
emulation, one for PCL6 emulation, and the other for PostScript 3
emulation. If you print mainly from general “Office” applications
choose one of the PCL drivers. For faster printing of PDF
documents, choose PostScript. If you print mainly from
professional DTP and graphics applications, choose PostScript.

APPLICATIONS
When you choose to print your
document from a Windows
application program a print
dialogue box appears. This
dialogue usually specifies the
name of the printer on which
you will print your document.
Next to the printer name is a
Properties button.
When you click Properties a
new window opens which contains a short list of the printer
settings available in the driver, which you can choose for this
document.
The window which opens when you click Properties depends on
which printer driver has been installed. The PostScript driver
offers different choices to the PCL driver.
