Introduction

Operating the EPL-8000 as a LaserJet IIISi

If your application software does not list the EPL-8000on its printer menu but does list the HP LaserJet IIISi, choose the LaserJet IIISi instead of the LaserJet III to take advantage of all of your printer’s features.

In addition to the differences between the EPL-8000and the LaserJet III described in the previous section, there are only a few additional differences between the EPL-8000and the LaserJet IIISi.

On the EPL-8000, JobOffset and PaperDestination commands are ignored, and the Duplex command is treated as a page eject command. Also, the HPGL/2 Proportional Stick Font and network interface boards are not available for the EPL-8000.

Note:

If your program does not have a driver for HP LaserJet IIISi but does have a feature to send printer commands, send the commands shown below to select the additional fonts.

For the value of # (ID number) in the Esc (# command, see page B-17.
