PCL6 implementation

The Océ VarioPrint 6000 Series support PCL6 as the PCL Page Description Language. PCL6 consist of the following subsets:

  • PCL6 Enhanced: formerly known as PCL XL 3.0 which is a object oriented PDL similar to PostScript that is optimised for graphical user interfaces (like Windows GDI) and compressed to optimise for throughput.

  • PCL6 Standard: equivalent to PCL5e intended to provide backwards compatibility.

The PCL6 command set is compatible with the HPLJ4600.

For the technical reference on PCL6, see PCL 5 and PCL-XL reference manuals below.

NOTE

Any limitations of PCL6 are described in this TRM.

PCL5e is the PCL programming interface for the PRISMAsync Print Server. PCL5e knows the following subsets:

  • PCL commands.

  • Printer Job Language (PJL): this feature allows you to set different/partly processing features of PCL5.

  • HP-GL/2: this is the Hewlett Packard graphical language.
