HP PCL 6 Overall, the HP PCL 6 provides the best performance, print quality, and printer-feature support for most users. The driver aligns with MS Windows graphic device interface (GDI) for best performance in MS Windows environments. The HP PCL 6 may not be fully compatible with third-party and custom solutions that are based on PCL 5. Print Data Optimization Software Description The HP Color LaserJet CP2020 Series printer is the first to offer Print Data Optimization (also known as hybrid printing).
The Print Data Optimization feature can be changed from Auto to Optimize for Raster or Optimize for Text and Vector. Selecting Optimize for Raster causes the driver to always use the Raster path when printing; and, selecting Optimize or Text and Vector causes the driver to always use the PDL path. HP PS Universal Print Driver The Universal Print Drivers are designed for corporate or IT-managed MS Windows environments. These drivers provide a single-driver solution for use with multiple printer models.
The HP PS Universal Print Driver for Microsoft Windows 2000, Windows XP (32-bit and 64-bit), Windows Server 2003 (32-bit and 64-bit), and Microsoft Windows Vista (32-bit and 64-bit) is available for download from the HP Web site: www.hp.com/go/ljcp2020series_software. A link to the download page is also available from the More Software screen on the HP Color LaserJet CP2020 Series software CD.

HP driver diagnostic printer check tool Use the HP driver diagnostic printer check tool, a Web-based diagnostic software program, to determine whether the correct and most current print driver for the HP Color LaserJet CP2020 Series printer is in use. Two methods are available to gain access to the HP driver diagnostic printer check tool: 1. Open a Web browser. 2. Go to the following Web site: www.hp.
Advanced color use The product provides automatic color features that generate excellent color results. Carefully designed and tested color tables provide smooth, accurate color rendition of all printable colors. The product also provides sophisticated tools for the experienced professional. HP designs the print system (printer, print cartridges, toner, and paper) to work together to optimize print quality, product reliability, and user productivity.
NOTE: Factors such as the type of monitor you use and the room lighting can affect the appearance of colors on your screen. For more information, see Match colors on page 29. The latest versions of Adobe PhotoShop, CorelDRAW, Microsoft Office, and many other programs use sRGB to communicate color. Because it is the default color space in Microsoft operating systems, sRGB has been adopted broadly.
Match colors The process of matching printer output color to your computer screen is complex, because printers and computer monitors use different methods of producing color. Monitors display colors by using light pixels that use an RGB (red, green, blue) color process, but printers print colors by using a CMYK (cyan, magenta, yellow, and black) process.
HP Basic Color Match tool The HP Basic Color Match tool allows you to adjust spot color in your printed output. For example, you can match the color of your company logo on your printed output. You can save and use the new color themes for specific documents or all printed documents, or you can create multiple color themes that you can choose from later. The HP Basic Color Match tool can be downloaded from one of the following: Software Description ● HP Web site: www.hp.
