Introduction

Xerox LS 3270

Changing the Driver

To change from PCL to FSL driver or vice versa, first of all the rotary switch has to be in position T at power on. The current printer driver will be indicated on a printout. The actual selection of printer driver is then made by turning the rotary switch to position A (PCL) or B (FSL). The new position will also be indicated on a second printout. When the correct position is obtained, turn the rotary switch away from the A, B or T positions (any other position will do). The new driver is now active.
