Xerox 2135 User Guide

Printer Drivers

A printer driver is software that you load on your workstation or server. To achieve the 

best results from your color printer, it is essential that you use the proper printer driver for 
your operating system and printer configuration.

Printer drivers provide access to features unique to your printer. Although there are many 
print options and features that are a part of the software applications, your printer also 

contains many distinctive features of its own. For example, your custom printer drivers 

enable you to use the Automatic Color feature that is available in your printer.

You may use either the Adobe PostScript printer driver (recommended) or the PCL 5C 

printer driver. The PostScript printer driver allows access to more of the exclusive and 
powerful Xerox printing features.

The table below lists the supported drivers by PDL (Page Description Language) along with 
supported operating systems. 

Your Phaser 2135 was shipped with the latest drivers available at the time of 

manufacture. You can check for newer drivers from 
www.xerox.com/officeprinting/drivers. 

Installing the Printer Drivers

Instructions on how to load the printer drivers are on the Phaser 2135 Product CD-ROM for 

this. In addition, your System Administrator can download drivers directly to each 
workstation on the network.
