Select the correct printer driver
Select a printer driver based on the operating system that you are using and the way that you use
the product. See the printer-driver Help for the features that are available. For information about
gaining access to the printer-driver Help, see Printer-driver Help.
● The PCL 6 printer driver can provide the best overall performance and access to your printer
features.
● The PCL 5 printer driver is recommended for general office monochrome and color printing.
● Use the PostScript (PS) driver if you are printing primarily from PostScript-based programs such
as Adobe PhotoShop
® and CorelDRAW ® , for compatibility with PostScript Level 3 needs, or for
PS flash font support.
NOTE The product automatically switches between PS and PCL printer languages.
Printer-driver Help (Windows)
Printer-driver Help is separate from program Help. The printer-driver help provides explanations for
the buttons, checkboxes, and drop-down lists that are in the printer driver. It also includes
instructions for performing common printing tasks, such as printing on both sides, printing multiple
pages on one sheet, and printing the first page or covers on different paper.
Activate the printer-driver Help screens in one of the following ways:
● Click the Help button.
● Press the F1 key on the computer keyboard.
● Click the question-mark symbol in the upper-right corner of the printer driver.
● Right-click on any item in the driver, and then click What's This?.
