CASSIE print management works with printers whose driver(s)
support any of the following printer languages:
 |
PCL, PCL-5, or PCL-6 (PCL-XL) |
|
|
PS, Postscript |
|
|
ESC/P 2 |
|
|
Host-based, proprietary* |
Virtually all enterprise, office and SOHO grade printers manufactured in the
last 15 years support at least one of these printer languages.
* Some contemporary printers use what is called a host-based
driver. With this arrangement, the majority of the image processing
is done inside the host computer as opposed to inside the printer.
This permits cost reduction in the printer design, since the printer does not
require significant processing capability. However, it can
introduce complexity for applications that are processing the data. CASSIE features a unique compatibility mode
that allows it to work with most of these printers as well.
