Types of Printer Drivers

The CentreWare printer drivers are available in PostScript 3, PCL 5e, and PCL 6 (XL) printing formats.

NOTE: A PCL 6 driver for Windows NT is not available with this CentreWare release.

PostScript

PostScript gives you greater ability to scale and manipulate images; it offers more precision with high-end graphics. PostScript also provides you with different types of error-handling and font substitution options.

PCL

PCL (Printer Command Language) generally has fewer advanced features than PostScript. However, using PCL enables you to process most jobs faster.
