Printer software 37

Choose a printer driver based on the way you use the printer.

●

Use the PCL 6 driver to take full advantage of the printer’s 
features. Unless backward compatibility with previous PCL 
drivers or older printers is necessary, the PCL 6 driver is 
recommended.

●

Use the PCL 5e driver if you want print results to look comparable 
to those from older printers, or for font DIMM support.

●

Use the PS driver for compatibility with PostScript Level 2. 
Certain features are not available in this driver.

●

The printer automatically switches between PS and PCL printer 
languages.

Each printer driver has help screens that can be activated either from 
the Help button, the F1 key, or a question mark symbol in the upper 
right corner in the printer driver (depending on the Windows operating 
system used). These help screens give detailed information about the 
specific driver. Printer driver help is separate from the software 
application help.

The HP Resource Manager should be installed only on the network 
administrator’s computer. The HP Resource Manager allows you to 
control the hard disk and flash memory accessory features not found 
in the drivers. Bidirectional communication is required.

Use the HP Resource Manager to do the following:

●

initialize disk and flash memory

●

download, delete, and manage fonts and macros to disk and flash 
memory across networks

• PostScript Type 1, PostScript Type 42, TrueType™ fonts 

converted to PostScript format, TrueType, and PCL bitmap 
fonts

• To download Type 1 fonts, Adobe Type Manager must be 

loaded and turned on.

You can obtain a copy of HP Resource Manager over the Internet. 
See “Online services” on page 157 for details.

HP Resource Manager is not available for the Macintosh.
