product. It is assumed
that your device is
equipped with the
appropriate option(s)
to support the
information within this
document.
Note: The commands and syntax used in this document requires familiarity with either
PostScript (PS) or Printer Command Language (PCL).
This document provides the Printer Description Language (PDL) commands and syntax
for each feature. The following items are also included:
•A PCL table that describes the PCL features the WorkCentre supports and the syntax
to use the feature.
•A PS table that describes the PS features the WorkCentre supports and the syntax to
use the feature.
This document is not intended to be a complete PS or PCL reference manual. It is a
guide for using the PS and PCL commands with the WorkCentre 7425/7428/7435. Refer
to these sources for additional PS and PCL information:
•PostScript Language Reference Manual, Third Edition, ISBN 0-201-38922-8,
•PCL5 Printer Language Technical Reference Manual
(http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/bpl13210/bpl13210.pdf),
•Printer Job Language Technical Reference Manual
(http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/bpl13208/bpl13208.pdf), a
Hewlett-Packard manual.
Using this Guide
Search the Feature Table to determine whether the feature you wish to use is
supported.
Verify that the feature is supported by the platform. For example, the WorkCentre
must have an optional finisher installed to use stapling commands.
Follow across the table to find the syntax listed for the PDL examples shown.
Reference the “Dependencies/Caveats” section when working with PS and/or PCL
commands.
