HP PCL 6 print driver for Windows
Introduction
You can change the print job settings through the product control panel, the software program, or the
print driver.
Generally, for features that are duplicated in more than one location (for instance, you can select the
paper input tray from any of them), settings that are established in the software program take
precedence over print driver settings. Print driver settings, in turn, override product control-panel
settings.
Access print drivers
Depending on the operating system on which you are installing the print drivers, you can gain access
to the print drivers and different print-driver interfaces in several ways.
To gain access to the print driver settings from within most software programs, follow these steps:
1. Click the File menu.
2. Click the Print item.
3. Click the Properties button.

The HP PCL 6 print driver includes a full-featured Help system to provide assistance with printing and
configuration options.
●
Right-click a feature or control. A pop-up Help window appears.
●
Click a feature or control, and then press the F1 key. The Help window for the currently selected

Incompatible print settings messages
Incompatible print settings (constraint) messages are unsolicited messages that appear in response to
specific print-driver selections. These messages alert you to selections that are illogical or impossible
given the product capabilities or the current settings of other controls.
NOTE: Constraint messages are limited, and the underlying software architecture might accept some
settings that are illogical or impossible for the product to perform. Sending a job with incompatible
settings can lead to unexpected results. If print jobs do not print as expected, check the product
documentation for the product capabilities.

In supported Windows operating environments, some technically invalid print-driver configurations
result in warning messages. For example, duplexing is not possible when printing an envelope. The
following figure shows an incompatible print settings warning.
Figure 2-1 Incompatible print settings warning
If you click the OK button, the Incompatible Print Settings dialog appears.
Figure 2-2 Incompatible Print Settings dialog
To resolve the conflicting settings, click the Restore my previous settings option, and then click the
OK button. The driver resets the conflicting control back to its previous state.
18 Chapter 2 Windows software description and installation ENWW
If you want to keep the conflicting setting, click the Keep this setting, and I will change it later
option, and then click the OK button.
NOTE: In this example, the conflict can be resolved manually. If the conflict is not resolved when the
driver is closed, then the same dialog appears again when a print job is sent to the product.
Advanced tab features
NOTE: The Advanced tab is located on the Printing Preferences tab set. For information about
how to access these tabs, see
Printing Preferences driver tabs on page 16,
Use the Advanced tab to change the layout of printed pages. Use this tab to configure special
controls that are not commonly used, as well as to control features such as collating and font
management in the driver (although most current software programs support these features in the print
dialog box or through the page settings in the software program). The following figure shows the
Advanced tab.

Graphic
The Graphic setting contains the following controls:
●
True Type Font settings
True Type Font
Use the Substitute with Device Font option (the default setting) to print documents that contain
TrueType fonts by using equivalent printer fonts. This permits faster printing; however, you might lose
special characters that the equivalent printer font does not support. Select the Download as
Softfont option to download TrueType fonts for printing instead of using printer fonts.
Document Options
The Document Options setting contains the following controls:
●
Advanced Printing Features
●
Printer Features

Layout Options
Advanced Printing Features
When the Advanced Printing Features setting is Enabled, metafile spooling is turned on and
Finishing tab options such as Page Order, Booklet Layout, and Pages per Sheet are
available, depending on the product.
Enhanced metafile spooling is used to greatly reduce the amount of time that elapses between a request
to print (initiated by a software program) and the return of control to the software program by the
operating system.
For normal printing, leave the Advanced Printing Features setting at the default (Enabled). If
compatibility problems occur, you can disable the feature. However, some advanced printing features
might still appear in the print driver, even though they have been disabled. If you select an advanced
printing feature in the print driver that has been disabled on the Advanced tab, the feature is
automatically re-enabled.
20 Chapter 2 Windows software description and installation ENWW
Printer Features
The Printer Features setting contains the following controls:
●
Print All Text as Black
The feature is Disabled by default. When Enabled is selected, the driver prints all text as black
regardless of the original document text color. Color text is printed as black, except for white text,
which remains white. (White text is a reliable method of printing reverse typeface against a dark
background.) This setting does not affect graphic images on the page, nor does it affect any text
that is part of a graphic.
●
Send True Type as Bitmap
Send True Type as Bitmap provides an alternative for software programs that have trouble
using TrueType fonts for special graphic aspects such as shading, rotation, or slanting. The setting
is Disabled (off) by default. The TrueType fonts are converted to bitmap soft fonts before
downloading. The Enabled setting causes the driver to send TrueType fonts to the product as
outlines, which retains the standard format (outline) of the fonts.
●
Raster Compression
Use the Raster Compression feature to select the graphics-compression method:
◦
Automatic. The software determines the best compression method to use.
◦
Best Quality. This option forces the software to use a lossless compression method.
(Lossless means that no data is lost during compression.)
◦
Maximum Compression. Where applicable, this option requires the software to always
use a lossy compression method (some data is lost).
●
Print Data Optimization
When selected, this feature allows the print job to use the host memory to ensure quick and high-
quality printing. The print speed increases without any print quality degradation.
When this option is selected, you must use one of the following settings:
◦
Auto (the default setting)
◦
Optimize for Raster
◦
Optimize for Text and Vector
Layout Options
The Layout Options setting contains the Page Order setting.
Page Order specifies the order in which the pages of your document are printed. Front to Back
prints the document so that page 1 prints first. Back to Front prints the document so that page 1
prints last.
NOTE: The page-ordering operation works on whole sheets of paper rather than on individual logical
pages. Accordingly, if you set Pages per Sheet (on the Finishing tab) to be greater than one, the
ordering of logical pages on a physical sheet of paper does not change.

Paper sizes
The Paper sizes setting is a drop-down menu that lists all of the supported paper sizes.
When you move the mouse over the dimensions label, the mouse cursor changes from an arrow to a
gloved hand. Click the dimensions label to toggle between English and metric units.
Because paper-size settings in most software programs override driver settings, it is generally best to
use the driver to set paper size only when you are printing from software programs that do not include
a paper-size setting, such as NotePad, or when you are producing a book or a booklet that does not
require different paper sizes.
NOTE: Certain software programs can override the size command and specify different paper sizes
within a single document.
When you change the print-driver setting to a paper size that is not currently loaded in the product, a
control-panel message appears that prompts you to load the paper size or select another tray.
When the Settings under the Special Pages section have been changed, the Paper sizes, Paper
source, and Paper type menus change also, offering a variety of options. For more information, see
Special pages on page 30.
Custom Paper Size
The Custom Paper Size dialog box appears when you click Custom… on the Paper/Quality
tab. The following figure shows the initial appearance of the Custom Paper Size dialog box.
NOTE: The HP LaserJet Pro 400 M401 Printer Series product supports custom paper sizes from 3
inches to 8.5 inches in width and 5 inches to 14 inches in length. To use this paper size, set the custom
paper size to match the custom paper size that you are using.
Name
Use the Name text box to type a new name for a custom paper size. When you change the name to
something other than Custom, the Save and OK buttons become active.
The name that appears in the Name text box depends on the following conditions:
●
If a saved custom paper size has been selected from the drop-down menu on the Paper/Quality
tab, then the Name text box shows the name of the selected custom paper size.
●
If a standard paper size has been selected on the Paper/Quality tab, then the Name text box
shows the default name of Custom .
●
If a new name has been typed into the Name text box for the purpose of saving a new size or
renaming an existing size, then that new name will remain in the text box until the new size is
saved or the dialog box is closed.
If you type a new name into the Name text box, but then do not click Save, you can change the
width and height values without losing the name. However, if you close the dialog box without clicking
Save, any unsaved name or size values are lost without warning.
28 Chapter 2 Windows software description and installation ENWW
Paper size
The width and height values can be changed by typing numeric strings into the edit boxes in the
Paper Size group box.
Any entry that is greater than the maximum limits of the width and height control is rounded down to
the maximum valid entry, while any entry that is smaller than the minimum limits of the width and height
control is rounded up to the minimum valid entry.
If units are in millimeters, the custom paper-size range minimum is the limit rounded up to the nearest
whole millimeter. The custom paper-size range maximum is the limit rounded down to the nearest whole
millimeter. Any non-numerical entry reverts to the minimum value. Width and height entries are
validated when the focus has changed.
The resolution of each control is 1 millimeter or 1/10 of an inch, depending on the current
measurement units.
NOTE: If the paper size is not physically supported by the product, the driver will scale the page
data down to a size that will fit on a letter size paper.
Units
To change measurement units, click one of the options in the Units group box (either Inches or
Millimeters).
Custom width and height control limits
The minimum paper size for the product is 76 x 127 mm (3 x 5 in) and the maximum is 215.90 x
355.60 mm (8.50 x 14.00 in).
Paper source
The Paper source setting specifies the source tray to use for printing a document. The list of source
trays depends on the product accessories that are installed. Any optional source trays that are installed
through the Device Settings tab also appear here.
The Paper source drop-down menu can contain the following options, depending on what has been
installed on the product:
●
Automatically select
●
Printer auto select
●
Manual Feed in Tray 1
●
Tray 1
●
Tray 2
The default setting is Automatically Select. When this setting is selected, the product uses the source
tray that supports the paper size that you have selected. If you select a source tray other than
Automatically select, make sure that the correct paper size is loaded in the source tray.

Paper type
The Paper type drop-down menu shows the first few paper types that the product supports and an
entry for More. Clicking More opens the Type Is dialog box. Click the + next to Type Is and its
subcategories to view all of the paper types that the product supports. For detailed information on the
supported paper types, see the user guide.
The default setting is Unspecified.
No mechanism exists for manually adding custom paper types through the driver. Use HP Web
Jetadmin to add custom paper types. Custom types can be added only by using bidirectional
communication, so they must already exist in the product when the bidirectional query occurs. If
bidirectional communication is enabled, then an updated list of paper types is returned. If bidirectional
communication is not enabled, then the driver looks for custom paper types that have been saved from
a previous bidirectional communication query, and uses those. Otherwise, no custom paper types are
available through the driver.
NOTE: To download a current version of HP Web Jetamin and for the latest list of supported host
systems, go to the following Web site:
www.hp.com/go/webjetadmin
If you select a setting other than the default, make sure that the correct paper type is loaded in the tray
that you selected in the Paper source setting.
When you change the print-driver setting to a paper type that is not currently loaded in the product, a
control-panel message appears that prompts you to load the paper type or select another tray.

EconoMode
Select the EconoMode check box to enable this feature. When this feature is turned on, the product
uses less toner on each page, extending the life of the toner cartridge and reducing the cost per page.
Because less toner is used on each page, the print quality is also reduced.
The default setting for the EconoMode option is off (not selected).
NOTE: HP does not recommend the full-time use of EconoMode. If EconoMode is used full-time,
the toner supply might outlast the mechanical parts in the toner cartridge. If print quality begins to
degrade and is no longer acceptable, consider replacing the toner cartridge.

Print document on
Click the Print document on option to format the document for one paper size and then print the
document on a different paper size, with or without scaling the image to fit the new paper size.
The Print document on control is disabled by either of the following conditions:
●
The % of actual size value is not 100.
●
The Pages per sheet value (on the Finishing tab) is not 1.
When Print Document On is selected, the drop-down menu shows the paper sizes on which you
can print. The list contains all of the standard paper sizes that the selected paper source supports and
any custom sizes that you have created. When Print document on is selected, Scale to fit is
automatically selected. Clear this check box if you do not want your document reduced or enlarged to
fit on the selected paper.
Scale to fit
The Scale to fit option box specifies whether each formatted document page image is scaled to fit the
target paper size. By default, Scale to fit is selected when Print document on is selected. If the
setting is turned off, then the document page images will not be scaled, and are instead centered at full
size on the target paper. If the document size is larger than the target paper size, then the document
image is clipped. If it is smaller, then it is centered within the target paper.
When the size for which the document is formatted (that is, the logical size) differs from the target size,
the preview image uses a dashed gray line to show the boundaries of the logical page in relation to
the target paper size.
% of actual size
The % of actual size option provides a slider bar and input box to use for scaling the percentage
setting. The default setting in the entry box is 100% of actual size. Actual size is defined as the paper
size that is selected within the driver or what the driver receives from the software program (if the
software program does not negotiate the paper size with the driver). The driver scales the page by the
appropriate factor and sends it to the product.
The limits of the range are from 25% to 400%, and any values outside the range are adjusted to those
limits as soon as the focus is removed from the control (that is, when the Tab key is pressed or another
control is selected).
Any change to the scale also changes the page preview, which increases or decreases from the upper-
left corner of the preview.
The slider bar controls the scale directly. The value in the edit box changes as the slider-bar indicator is
dragged, and the document preview image is updated to the new image scale. Each click on the
arrows increases or decreases the scale by 1%. Each click on the slider bar affects the scale by 10%.
You cannot achieve an exact value by dragging the slider-bar indicator. Instead, either use the slider-
bar indicator to approximate the value that you want and then use the arrows to refine the value, or
type the value into the entry box.

The Watermarks feature can be configured using the Driver Configuration Utility.
If the [Username] watermark is selected, the driver will use the network username of the logged in
user for the watermark.
The drop-down menu shows alphabetically sorted watermarks that are currently available on the
system, plus the string «(none),» which indicates that no watermark is selected. This is the default
setting. Any watermark that is selected from this list appears in the preview image.
When the First page only check box is selected, the watermark is printed only on the first page of
the document. The First page only check box is disabled when the current watermark selection is

First page only is turned off, four watermarks appear on the physical page (one on each logical
page).
Click Edit, and the Watermark Details dialog box appears.
Figure 2-7 Watermark Details dialog box
The dialog box shows a preview image and provides options for creating a new watermark and
controlling the message angle and font attributes.
Click OK to accept all of the changes that are made in the Watermark Details dialog box.
However, clicking Cancel does not cancel all of the changes. If you make changes to a watermark
and then select a different watermark or click New, all of the changes are saved, and only the current,
unsaved changes can be canceled.
Current Watermarks
The Current Watermarks group box contains a list of available watermarks, both predefined
watermarks that are available in the driver and any new watermarks that you have created.
To create a new watermark, click New. The new watermark appears in the Current Watermarks
list and in the Watermark Message edit box as «Untitled» until you name it. The name that you
type in the Watermark Message field appears in the Current Watermarks group box in the
Watermark Details dialog box and in the Watermarks group box on the Effects tab.

To name the new watermark, type the selected watermark text in the Watermark Message edit
box.
To delete a watermark, select the watermark in the Current Watermarks list, and then click Delete.
A warning appears asking whether you are sure you want to delete the selected item. Click Cancel if
you want to keep the watermark. Click OK to delete the selected watermark.
NOTE: You can have no more that 30 watermarks in the Current Watermarks list at one time.
When you reach the limit of 30 watermarks, the New button is disabled.
To edit an existing watermark, select the watermark in the Current Watermarks list. If you change
the Watermark Message for that watermark, you are, in effect, creating a new watermark.
Watermark Message
The Watermark Message is also the name that identifies the watermark in the Current
Watermarks list, except when more than one watermark has the same message. For example, you
might want several different watermarks with the message DRAFT, each with a different typeface or font
size. When this occurs, the string is appended with a space, a pound sign, and a number (for
example, Draft #2). When a number is added, the number two is used first, but if the resulting name
is also in the list, then the number increases until the name is unique (Draft #3, Draft #4, and so on).
Message Angle
Use the controls in the Message Angle group box to print the watermark in different orientations on
the page. All settings center the watermark string within the page; the selection of a particular setting
affects only the angle of the string placement. The following settings are available:
●
Diagonal. This is the default setting. Select this setting to place the text along a line that spans
the lower-left to upper-right corners of the page.
●
Horizontal. Select this setting to place the text along a line that spans the mid-left and mid-right
edges of the page.
●
Angle. Select this setting to place the text at the specified angle across the page. Use the numeric
spin box to select the angle.
