![]() ![]() Quality is not an issue, PCL works fine and can print the same vector graphics and vector fonts as can PostScript. PCL6 is a powerful page description language and will do anything you ever need to do. It’s more problematic in these ways and more: harder to find drivers (for a Win ME computer for example), more resource hungry (both on the printer, the workstation, and the network), HP’s PostScript drivers are going to be much buggier than their PCL drivers, the quality of HP’s PostScript emulation (that is, a third-party clone of Adobe’s PostScript program) is highly questionable whereas the PCL is an HP product and therefore a better risk, PostScript tends to throw obscure errors when printing and requires obscure expertise to troubleshoot (very frustrating)-PCL does this less, PostScript tends to run the printer out of memory easier, PostScript drivers offer lots of obscure settings that are useful only to industry pros (like color separations, e.g.) and will only confuse normal people and give them more ways to cause themselves problems, and on difficult prints PostScript will often be slower. PostScript is more problematic than is PCL, so if you don’t need it it’s better avoided. ![]() ![]() If you did need it you would know it and you wouldn’t be asking this question. ![]()
