1.1 About Emulation 7
1 Using Emulation
1.1 About Emulation
This chapter explains the PCL emulation of the printer.
Print data is data written based on certain rules (grammars). These rules (grammars) are
called "print languages".
The printer supports two types of print languages: page description language and
emulation. Page description language is a language that describes images on a page basis.
Emulation is the ability of this printer to imitate print results of other printers.
Emulation Mode
When printing data written in a language other than the page description languages
supported by the printer, switch the printer to an emulation mode. The printer has multiple
emulation modes and PCL is one of them. In the PCL emulation mode, the printer emulates
the following printer.
Host Interfaces and Emulation
Each host interface supports different print languages. The following host interfaces support
PCL emulation:
• Parallel port
•LPDport
• NetWare port
•SMBport
•IPPport
•USBport
• Port9100 port
Note
• To use NetWare, SMB, or IPP port, the network expansion card (optional) must be installed.

81 Using Emulation
Switching Print Languages
The machine supports multiple emulation modes and can switch between multiple print
languages.
There are three methods of switching print languages.
Switching Languages by Commands
If the printer receives a command that explicitly tells which language to use, the printer
switches to that language.
Switching Languages Automatically
The printer examines data received by its host interface and automatically determines and
switches to the appropriate language.
Switching Languages by Interface
The printer can be programmed to switch to a particular language for a particular host
interface. This can be done by setting a language for each interface on the control panel.
Mode Menu Screen
The menu items for the emulation modes can be accessed from the mode menus. To
access the mode menu for the PCL emulation mode, press the <Menu> button and select
[Print Language] > [PCL]. The following is the first screen of the PCL mode menu.
Refer to
• For more information about items for the PCL mode menu, refer to “2 Setting the PCL Mode” (P. 12).

1.2 About Fonts 9
1.2 About Fonts
This section explains the fonts that can be used in the PCL emulation mode.
Supported Fonts
The following fonts can be used in the PCL emulation mode.
Note
• PCL 5 can be used also by downloading it on the hard disk (optional).
• The supported fonts and their print samples can be viewed on the [PCL Font List]. For information about
the [PCL Font List], refer to “2.3 PCL Mode Reports/Lists” (P. 17).

1.3 Paper Eject Function 11
1.3 Paper Eject Function
The section explains the paper eject function of the printer.
Forcibly Ejecting the Remaining Data
In the PCL emulation mode, the printer does not eject a job unless it receives a full page
worth of data. When the host interface is Parallel or USB, and if only a portion of a page is
received, the printer does not eject the page. The printer waits for the data and shows [Data
Wait] on the display until the time set under [Time-out] elapses.
In such situation, you can forcibly print the page without waiting for the time-out period to
elapse.
Use the following steps when forcibly ejecting the data remained in the printer.
Note
• If you send a job to the printer while the display says [Data Wait], the job may not be printed successfully.
Send a job to the printer after forcibly ejecting the current job or after the time-out period has elapsed.
Refer to
• For information about the [Time-out] feature, refer to the ‘User Guide’.
1. Press the <Eject/Set> button when the
display is in the state shown on the right.
The printing starts.
When the printing is finished, the display
reads [Ready to print].
Important
• When [Print Mode] (common menu) is set to [Auto],
you cannot force-eject a job since the display does not
show [Data Wait].

2.1 Control Panel Menus
There are two types of control panel menus: the mode menus and common menus. The
mode menus are the menus that relate to the emulation modes. The common menu are the
menus for all the other features of the printer.
Note
• On the DocuPrint C3055, [PostScript] (mode menu) is displayed only if the PostScript software kit
(optional) is installed.
Common Menu Item Related to the PCL Mode
The common menu item that relates to the PCL emulation mode is as follows:
Refer to
• For more information about the common menu items, refer to the ‘User Guide’.
Network / Port
To display this item, select [Admin Menu] > [Network / Port].
This item allows you to set the ports to be used in the PCL emulation mode.
• Port Status (Parallel/LPD/NetWare/SMB/IPP/USB/Port9100)
Enables the ports to be used in the PCL emulation mode. By default, all ports are set to
[Enable].
• Print Mode (Parallel/LPD/NetWare/SMB/IPP/USB/Port9100)
Sets the print mode of each port to [PCL] or [Auto]. By default, all ports are set to [Auto].
Note
• [Print Mode] allows you to set the method of processing data received from host interfaces. If you set
this to [PCL], the printer will not auto-switch languages as described in “Switching Languages
Automatically" (P. 8).

2.1 Control Panel Menus 13
PCL Mode Menu
The PCL mode menu allows you to configure the PCL emulation mode.
You can change the settings of the PCL mode menu even when the printer is printing. The
changes, however, will be applied not to the job being printed, but from a job after it.
The mode menu is organized into the following structure.
• mode menu > items > optional values
Note
• Some "items" may be divided into item 1, item 2, item 3....
(They will be simply referred to as “items” unless otherwise noted.)
The above is a portion of the hierarchical structure of the PCL mode menu.
Refer to
• For information about the items in the PCL mode menu, refer to “2.2 Setting the PCL Mode Menu” (P.
14).

[Tray 2]
[Tray 3]
[Tray 4]
[Bypass Tray]
Note
• When [Auto] is selected, and if the paper of the same size is loaded in more than one paper tray, the
printer selects a tray based on the tray priority setting of a common menu.
• [Tray 2] - [Tray 4] are displayed only if the 500 sheet feeders (optional) are installed.
