Introduction
The Canon PCL5e and PCL 6 Printer drivers and Fax driver give users of Microsoft Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows NT Version 4.0 or Windows 2000 (hereafter called Windows 95/98/ NT4.0/2000) operating systems the ability to make full use of the printer. The printer driver allows you to print documents from any Windows application to your printer using Hewlett-Packard’s PCL5e or PCL 6 data format. If your printer is equipped with the optional fax subsystem, the fax driver allows you to access the fax device.
In Windows 95/98/NT4.0/2000 environments, you can use both printer drivers. The PCL 6 printer driver is recommended for printing image data. The PCL5e printer driver is recommended for printing text data.
IMPORTANT
•The PCL5e printer driver is available for imageRUNNER 6000/5000, iR3250, imageRUNNER 600/550/60, imageRUNNER 400/330, imageRUNNER 210, GP225/GP200, GP215/GP200 and GP55/GP30. The PCL 6 printer driver is available only for imageRUNNER 6000/5000 and iR3250.
•Three versions are provided for each PCL5e and PCL 6 driver, one for Windows 95/98, one for Windows NT4.0 and one for Winsows 2000. Use the driver for the version of Windows you are using.
•The PCL5e printer driver for Windows NT4.0 and Windows 2000 are available for GP55/GP30.
