Printer Emulation Support 1
Your machine will receive print commands in a printer job language or emulation. Different operating systems
and applications will send the print commands in different languages. Your machine can receive print
commands in a variety of emulations and has an automatic emulation selection feature. When the machine
receives data from the computer, it automatically chooses the emulation mode. The default setting is Auto.
Your machine has the following emulation modes. You can change the setting by using the control panel or
a web browser.
HP LaserJet Mode
The HP LaserJet mode (or HP mode) is the emulation mode in which this printer supports the PCL6
language of a Hewlett-Packard LaserJet laser printer. Many applications support this type of laser printer.
Using this mode will allow your machine to run at its best with those applications.
BR-Script3 Mode
BR-Script is an original Brother page description language and a PostScript
®
language emulation
interpreter. This machine supports PostScript
®
3™. The BR-Script interpreter of this machine allows you
to control text and graphics on the page.

Proprinter XL Mode
The EPSON FX-850 and IBM Proprinter XL modes are the emulation modes that this printer supports to
meet the industry-standard for dot matrix printers. Some applications support these dot matrix printer
emulations. Use these emulation modes so your printer will work well when printing from those types of
applications.
