❖ PCL Printer Drivers
Printer drivers allow the computer to communicate with the machine via a
printer language. Two kinds of PCL printer drivers, PCL 6 and PCL 5e, are
included on the CD-ROM that comes with this machine. We recommend PCL
6 as your first choice. However, some of your applications might require the
installation of the PCL 5e printer driver. In this case, you can install PCL 5e in
addition to PCL 6.
