What are the difference between the PCL Driver and the BR-Script driver?

During this initial set-up and installation process of your printer, the driver installer recommends that you install the PCL driver if you are a Windows user.

While this driver enables access to the maximum number of printer features, it offers limited colour calibration capabilities. However, for everyday office colour printing, this driver is recommended.

 

If you are printing colour graphics or are performing desktop publishing, we recommend using our Postscript driver. Ideal for both Mac and Windows, this driver enables advanced colour calibration and produces the most accurate colour output.
