Configuring Xprint V7.0 Administering PCLs
6.13.5 Defining a PCL yourself
Except for the default PCL GENERIC, the PCLs supplied with Xprint V7.0 can be
modified. Furthermore, you can also define your own PCLs in order to provide
optimum communication between the Xprint V7.0 system and the printer.
To do this, you must simply give Xprint V7.0 information on the attributes of the
printer and how these are selected. The attributes are defined and saved in a
PCL file so that the Xprint V7.0 system can access the information at any time.
To define a PCL yourself, you must create a file with the PCL definition. This file
must have a special structure. The section “Format of a PCL definition” in the
“Xprint V7.0 - Reference Manual” contains a description of the required format.
Only users with a sound knowledge of printers should define PCLs
themselves. It is seriously recommended that you copy an existing PCL
entry in the file xpterm and then adjust it to the functions and require-
ments of the new printer.
