- So far, only the Studio drivers provide you full PCL 5 support
- (yes, compressed graphic output with up to 256 greyshades and free
- definable dithers, all typefaces are selectable).
-
- Oh yep, forgot to tell: Studio now includes a PageStream PCL 5
- driver with up to 600 dpi (wich can, beside the Studio workbench
- driver, used for the new HP 4/4M). All Studio Laserjet drivers
- support PJL.
-
- Studio is commercial and is currently only shiped in germany for
- $69 (list price). An english version will be available in a view
- days and this version will cost $55 but the price will most likely
- be higher in case I can find an US distributor. In the UK you can
- get Studio from JAM for 49.95.
-
- If you want a list of the features let know...
