Example: Follow the instructions below to convert ASCII print data to PostScript for logical printer PR2:
1.From the print server’s internal Web page, select Admin Logical Printer
Settings.
2.Select the Printer2 tab.
3.Set the Printer Language Translation parameter to POSTSCR.
4.Click the OK button.
If you select the parameter value AUTO_PS, the print data for every print job is searched and if any ASCII data is found, it is translated into PostScript. This setting is recommended if you are not sure if the print data is ASCII or PostScript.
