Re: AW: HPT, PJL and Kyocera FS900 Printer

Hello Erich,

go to Pete Halls website and have a look at PCL/ PJL printing directly.
As you notice Dwayne used the LEXOPTRA wscst object (hint, hint),
and I had problems with the automatic datastream switching inside Kyocera
firmware (you can't turn it off ) while the Lexmark never caused this type of
problem. HP Laserjets are recommended as well ...
Best for IPDS printing would be IBM Infoprints or Lexmark Optras, but
have a look at Pete's tips and see how you can modify your printjobs.

Regards from germany, Philipp Rusch
