Emulations

Choices Off—Reset PCL to its default state at the end of each PCL print job, execute an implicit <ESC>E at the start and end of the job, and delete any temporary fonts, macros, and patterns.

On—Reset PCL to its default state at the end of each PCL print job. Temporary fonts, macros, and patterns from previous PCL print jobs are retained in memory after the print job has completed. You can recall these downloaded fonts, macros, and patterns from within your PCL file without having to download them again.

On Compatibility—Retain the entire state of PCL as well as the temporary macros, fonts, and patterns from previous PCL jobs unless you do one of the following:

nChange any PCL front panel option

nSend any PCL-specific DOC command—except the DOC emulation command

nSend any other DOC command, such as number of cop- ies, duplex, orientation, or inputbin

nSend a PCL job from a different communications port— for examples, if the PCL print environment is set for PCL jobs to print from the parallel port, and a PCL job is sent from the serial port

If any one of these occurs, the PCL state is reset to the new default, and the previous state is lost.

Default Off
