Subject: Re: HP PCL programming language?

I have found the PCL language reference attached with old printer
manuals. I have seen them on the internet before, probably in the HP
7445 or 7550 plotter manuals.

But if your using a laser printer, it simply prints what you print in
windows - if you print a circuit board pattern thats what prints out.
If you modify the laserjet in any way - and if whatever your doing
works, it will rastorize just as it normally does using the windows
printer driver without having to learn the PCL programming language.
