Printing with HP-GL

1.

Use automatic language selection or change the printer port’s
language from PostScript to HP-GL.

2.

Set up the printing options in your application by selecting a
printer driver that supports the 7475A plotter.

3.

Print from your application as usual.

Changing the HP-GL default settings

The printer has default values for the HP-GL parameters, such as pen color
and pen width. When you turn the printer off and on (or reset it), the HP-GL
values return to their default settings.

To change the values, send a PostScript language file to the printer. For
details, refer to the manual Phaser 220 Drivers and Utilities Printing Reference.
