PCL6 Printer driver

<< < (2/2)

Andreas Kohl:
It's quite easy to download recent OS/2 printer drivers (hobbes etc.). Even version 30.800 has PCL6 support.

ivan:
Thanks everyone.  One of my people found our CD cache of PA files and has been testing the drivers in her spare time. 

Although non of the IBM drivers specifically mention PCL6 it does seem to fall back to PCL5 without too many problems.  A few more tests, mainly involving this printer working over the network, and we may have a goer.

LASERJET.DRV definitely supports PCL6 Enhanced (and also ColorSmart and ColorSmart II). Of course it's possible  to use PCL 3 drivers (HP LaserJet). So almost any old DOS application can play.
