We recommend setting Printer Emulation mode using your application software or network server. If the setting does not work correctly, select the required emulation mode manually using the machine's control panel.

Your machine will receive print commands in a printer job language, or emulation. Different operating systems and applications send the print commands in different languages. Your machine can receive print commands in a variety of emulations and has an automatic emulation selection feature. When the machine receives data from the computer, it automatically selects the emulation mode. The default setting is Auto.

HP LaserJet Mode
HP LaserJet mode (or HP mode) is the emulation mode in which this printer supports the PCL6 language of a Hewlett-Packard LaserJet laser printer. Many applications support this type of laser printer. Using this mode will allow your machine to run at its best with those applications.
BR-Script 3 Mode

This machine supports PostScript® 3™. The BR-Script interpreter of this machine allows you to control text and graphics on the page.
