PRINTER DRIVERS

When using the printer function of the machine, you can configure a variety of settings in the printer driver properties window. This section introduces the types of printer drivers and the printer driver settings.

Printer driver types

PCL printer driver (provided standard with the MX-2300N/MX-2700N)

The machine supports the Hewlett-Packard PCL6 and PCL5c printer control languages. It is recommended that you use the PCL6 printer driver. If you have a problem printing from older software using the PCL6 printer driver, use the PCL5c printer driver.

SPLC-c printer driver (provided standard with the MX-2300G/MX-2700G)

This is the SHARP proprietary printer driver that is provided standard with the machine. The printer driver compresses the data in each print job before sending the job to the machine, enabling smooth printing.

PS printer driver (for use when the PS3 expansion kit is installed)

This printer driver supports the PostScript 3 page description language developed by Adobe Systems Incorporated and enables the machine to be used as a PostScript 3 compatible printer.

For detailed information on using the drivers, see "PRINTER FUNCTION OF THE MACHINE" in the Printer Guide.
