Changing the Graphics Language Setting for a
Different Application

Your software application communicates with the printer by a graphics language.
The HP DesignJet 755CM printer supports:

PostScript
HP-GL/2
HP-GL (7586B)
HP RTL

With the printer’s default setting, called

Automatic

, it decides for itself which type

of file it is receiving – PostScript, HP-GL/2, HP-GL or RTL – and prints it. Unless
you want to change the scale of a PostScript print from the front panel (see page
4-13), or are troubleshooting any of the problems listed under Comments in the
table below, then do not change this default.
