What
are PCL and PDF? |
|
PCL - Printer Command Language, more commonly
referred to as PCL, is a
page description language
(PDL) developed by
Hewlett-Packard as a
printer protocol and
has become a
de facto
industry standard.
Originally developed for early
inkjet printers in
1984, PCL has been released in varying levels for
thermal,
matrix printer, and
page printers.
HP-GL and
PJL are supported by
later versions of PCL.
PDF - Portable Document
Format (PDF) is a
file format used to
represent
documents in a manner
independent of
application software,
hardware, and
operating systems.[2]
Each PDF file encapsulates a complete description of a
fixed-layout flat document, including the text, fonts,
graphics, and other information needed to display it. In
1991,
Adobe Systems
co-founder
John Warnock outlined a
system called "Camelot"[3]
that evolved into PDF. |

Additional Knowledge: |
PCL levels 1 through 5e/5c are command based languages
using control sequences that are processed and
interpreted in the order they are received. At a
consumer level, PCL data streams are generated by a
print driver. PCL output can also be easily generated by
custom applications.
- PCL 1 was
introduced in 1984 on the HP ThinkJet 2225 and provides
basic text and graphics printing with a maximum
resolution of 150 dpi (dots per inch).
- PCL 1+ was
released with the HP QuietJet 2227.
- PCL 2 added
Electronic Data Processing/Transaction
functionality.
- PCL 3 was
introduced in 1984 with the original HP
LaserJet[1].
This added support for bitmap fonts and increased
the maximum resolution to 300 dpi. Other products
with PCL 3 support were the HP
DeskJet ink jet
printer, HP 2932 series matrix printers and HP
RuggedWriter 2235 matrix printers. PCL 3 is still in
use on several impact printers which replaced the
obsoleted HP models.
- PCL 3+
(mono) and PCL 3c+ (color) are used on later
HP DeskJet and HP PhotoSmart products.
- PCL 3GUI is
used in the HP DesignJet and some DeskJet series
printers. It uses a compressed raster format that is
not compatible with standard PCL 3.
- PCL 4 was
introduced on the HP LaserJet II
[2] in 1985, adding
macros, larger bitmapped fonts and graphics. PCL 4
is still popular for many applications.
- PCL 5 was
released on the HP LaserJet III
[3] in March 1990,
adding
Intellifont font
scaling (developed by
Compugraphic, now
part of
Agfa), outline
fonts and HP-GL/2 (vector) graphics.
- PCL 5e (PCL
5 enhanced) was released on the HP LaserJet 4
[4] in October 1992
and added bi-directional communication between the
printer and the PC and
Windows fonts.
- PCL 5c
introduced color support on the HP PaintJet 300XL
and HP Color LaserJet
[5] in 1992.
- PCL 6 was
introduced around 1995 with HP LaserJet 4000 series
printers
[6], and consists
of:
- PCL 6
Enhanced: An object-oriented
PDL optimized
for printing from
GUI interfaces
such as
Windows and
compressed to optimize throughput. Formerly
known as PCL XL.
- PCL 6
Standard: Equivalent to PCL 5e or PCL 5c,
intended to provide backward compatibility.
- Font
synthesis: Provides scalable fonts, font
management and storage of forms and fonts.
