Changing the printer’s language mode

The Phaser 600 printer supports the following printer languages:

PostScript Level 1 and Level 2

HP-GL (Hewlett-Packard Graphics Language)

In the factory default configuration, the printer expects to receive PostScript data on
all ports. If you want to use an HP-GL application, you must explicitly set up a
printer port to receive HP-GL data, or enable Adobe IntelliSelect™ automatic
language selection.

Changing the language of the printer between PostScript and HP-GL is
port-specific. The ports, such as parallel, serial, or LocalTalk, can each be
configured differently. You can change the default language on any port so
whenever the printer is turned on it expects to receive PostScript or HP-GL data on
a specific port. If automatic language selection is enabled on a particular port, it
becomes the default on that port, allowing you to send PostScript and HP-GL files to
that port.

Changes to the language on any port remain in effect even if the printer is turned off
or reset.
