Brother HL-2600CN Series

CHAPTER 3 BEFORE WORKING WITH THE PRINTER

3-1

This printer has an automatic emulation selection function. When the printer

receives data from the computer, it automatically selects the emulation

mode. This function has been factory set to ON.

The printer can select the emulation from the following combinations:

EPSON (Default) IBM

HP LaserJet HP LaserJet

BR-Script 3 BR-Script 3

HP-GL HP-GL

EPSON FX-850 IBM Propr inter XL

To get the most out of this laser printer, we recommend that you use the

Brother BR-Script 3 emulation.

The printer is set to the HP color printer emulation (PCL5C) mode

automatically. Since PCL5C mode takes the highest priority in the

automatic emulation selection, in most cases you can start using the printer

as it is with the factory settings.

Note

Emulation modes other than PCL5C and BR-Script 3 are monochrome

emulation modes.
