PCL AND POSTSCRIPT DRIVERS

As with control panels and touch screens, print-driver design can vary enormously from manufacturer-to- manufacturer. And, as with control panels and touch screens, how easy it is—or isn’t—to make selections in the print driver and navigate through it can significantly affect user productivity.

Most vendors provide an emulation of PCL (printer control language) developed by the Hewlett-Packard Company. Some may also provide an emulation of PostScript, developed by Adobe Systems Incorporated, or they may license PostScript directly from Adobe. While the Adobe PostScript driver is not the most user-friendly of print drivers, the advantage is that many users are already familiar with it. Alternately, some manufacturers may use an emulation of PostScript and design their own print-driver user interface, or may license PostScript from Adobe and also design their own print-driver interface.
