- PRINTGL DESCRIPTION
-
- PrintGL is a shareware pen plotter emulator for IBM/DOS systems.
-
- PrintGL prints an HP-GL (HP Graphics Language - HP 7475, 7440/17440 subsets)
- plotfile on a matrix printer. HP-GL is widely supported by graphics programs
- including AutoCAD, Generic CADD, MathCAD, SAS, Schema, and many more. PrintGL
- has drivers for Epson, IBM, and NEC compatible 9 and 24 pin dot matrix
- printers, HP Laserjet, Deskjet, PaintJet, QuietJet, and plotters, IBM ExecJet,
- Quietwriter 2/3, and LaserPrinter, Canon LBP and BJ printers, Kodak Color 4,
- and PostScript printers. It will also display plots with a CGA, EGA, VGA, EVGA,
- or HGC, and output a .PCX or .IMG file.
-
- Even if your graphics program supports your printer, you may find that PrintGL
- is faster or gives better print quality. PrintGL uses the best graphics modes
- available for each printer that it supports and uses transfer data compression
- to improve print speed on many printers. If you need printed graphics output
- from personal software, you can output HP-GL and use PrintGL to do the
- printing. This gives immediate support to a wide range of printers. And it lets
- you use the HP 17440 command set while supporting lower function plotters.
-
- PrintGL Menu Interface (PMI), included with PrintGL, gives you easy access to
- PrintGL's options.
