Printable Files

This machine can print GL/2, TIFF/CALS and PDF files.

GL/2

Complies with the Pen Plotter command set HP-GL (Hewlett Packard's Graphics Language), the Raster Plotter command set HP-GL/2 (Hewlett Packard's Graphics Language Standard), and HP-RTL (HP's Raster Transfer Language) developed by HP (Hewlett Packard).

HP-GL emulates the HP-GL commands of HP7550A.

HP-GL/2 and HP-RTL emulate the HP-GL/2 commands of HP DesignJet 600.

You can print from CAD applications that use HP-GL and HP-GL/2 commands.

For details about specification of printable files, see "Printable GL/2 Files".

Printable GL/2 Files

TIFF/CALS

Print TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) format bitmap files from UNIX workstations and DOS/V computers.

TIFF/CALS files are rastorized by the machine. "Rastorization" refers to the process of printing dot by dot from the bitmap image. This process does not require a printer driver so printing can be set from either the machine or the Web browser.

You can print GL/2 and TIFF/CALS files using PostScript 3.
For details about specification of printable files, see "Printable TIFF Files" or "Printable CALS Files".

PDF

Prints PDF files using Web Printing Tool.

This configures the printing settings, such as "Reverse Order Printing" and "Scale", for PDF file data.

The PDF settings can be configured from Web Printing Tool only. For details, see Web Print Tool Help.
