The default language for the parallel port is PostScript. For information on default language for other interface ports, refer to the PhaserShare Network Cards and Software System Administrator User Manual.
If you want to print HP-GL or PCL5 files on a port set to PostScript, you must set up that printer port for that type of data or enable Adobe IntelliSelect automatic language selection. Refer to the topics on the printer's CD-ROM or the Tektronix World Wide Web page for instructions.
If automatic language selection is enabled, you can send PostScript, HP-GL, and PCL5 files to the printer and the printer automatically detects the type of file and prints it. You can change the default language so that the next time you turn on the printer, it is set to receive PostScript, HP-GL, or PCL5 data on a specific port.
The printer has default values for the HP-GL parameters, such as pen color and pen width. However, you can change these values. Refer to the topics on the printer's CD-ROM or the Tektronix World Wide Web page for instructions.
