Graphics Language), the Raster Plotter command set HP-GL/2 (Hewlett
Packard's Graphics Language Standard), and HP-RTL (HP's Raster Transfer
Language) developed by HP (Hewlett Packard).
HP-GL emulates the HP-GL commands of HP7550A.

Reference
❖
TIFF/CALS
Print TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) format bitmap files from UNIX work-
stations and DOS/V computers.
TIFF/CALS files are rastorized by the machine. “Rastorization” refers to the
process of printing dot by dot from the bitmap image. This process does not
require a printer driver so printing can be set from either the machine or the
Web browser.
Note
❒
You can print GL/2 and TIFF/CALS files using PostScript 3.
