This printer has an automatic emulation selection function. When the printer 
receives data from the computer, it automatically selects the emulation 
mode. This function has been factory set to ON.  

The printer can select the emulation among the following combinations:   

EPSON/IBM Priority       EPSON (default)     IBM 

Auto Selection Mode        HP PCL 5C 

   HP PCL 5C 

            BR-Script 3 

   BR-Script 3 

            HP-GL    

   HP-GL 

            EPSON FX-850 

   IBM Proprinter XL 

To get the best possible color output, we recommend that you use the 
Brother BR-Script 3 emulation. 

The printer is set to the HP color printer emulation (PCL5C) mode 
automatically. Since PCL5C mode takes the highest priority in the 
automatic emulation selection, in most cases you can start using the printer 
as it is with the factory settings.  

Note 

Emulation modes other than PCL5C and BR-Script 3 are monochrome 
emulation modes.
