Introduction

User Benefit—Two resolutions allow you to customize the quality of
your output according to its use: 300x300 dpi for most hardcopy
needs, 600x600 dpi for high-resolution output.

Five Resident Emulations

Your printer supports printing in HP PCL5, HP-GL, Lineprinter, CCITT,
and PostScript emulations.

User Benefit—Most applications can print directly to the printer.

HP PCL 5 Emulation

The printer emulates the Hewlett-Packard LaserJet IIISi at both

fonts only). The available resolution for HP-GL/2 is 300x300 dpi.

HP-GL Emulation

The printer provides HP-GL plotter emulation (7470A, 7475A, 7550A,
and ColorPro) at 300x300 dpi and 600x600 dpi.

Lineprinter Emulation

The Lineprinter emulation prints simple, unformatted text files at
300x300 and 600x600 dpi. Each text line ends with a carriage return.

CCITT
