PDL (Page Description Language)
A Page Description Language (PDL) specifies the contents and layout of a
printed page. In the Device Settings tab, you can choose from PCL XL,
(Printer Command Language XL), PCL 5e, or KPDL (an emulation of PostScript
printing). The printer default is PCL XL, which is suitable for most printing
purposes. After you select a PDL, the selection appears in the lower corner of
the Preview image.
In GDI compatible mode, vector graphics are rasterized for printing as bitmap
images. Use the GDI compatible mode option to improve the output quality of
the graphic created by the application.
In a client/server environment, this feature is unavailable to a client logged in as
a restricted user.
PDL Options
The PDL options, available in the PDL Settings dialog box, are accessed in
Device Settings.

features. PCL XL lacks backward compatibility with earlier PCL versions,
though it is enhanced over PCL 5e in these areas:
Reduced file size
Better print speed
Faster return to application
PCL 5e
Fully compatible with earlier PCL versions
