PDF
Output to PDF is a plug-in feature that lets you print and save documents from
multiple sources to Adobe PDF. This feature can be used as an alternative to
existing commercial applications for creating PDF documents. Documents
saved as PDF retain their original appearance, and can be viewed and printed
with Adobe Reader on Windows, Mac OS, and UNIX platforms.
For a document using mixed paper sizes, all pages in the PDF use the size of
the first page.
Note: With PDF selected in the PDL Settings dialog box, only a limited set of
driver options are available.
PDL Settings
When you click the Settings button, the available options are:
PCL XL Settings or KPDL Settings
Enable smart duplex printing
This option automatically keeps a sheet of paper from being sent through the
duplex unit if the sheet will only be printed on one side. The duplex unit will
be bypassed for the following types of print jobs: a one page document, one
page from a multi-page document, or a multi-page document that prints onto
a single sheet. Selecting this option can reduce wear on the mechanical
duplex unit, and result in comparatively faster printing times.
PCL XL Settings
Skip printing blank pages
This option prevents the printing system from outputting any page that
contains no data, or that has, at most, one space character. Selecting this
option can save paper, and result in comparatively faster printing times. This
feature is for regular printing (not for booklet, duplex or multiple pages per
sheet).
KPDL Settings
Allow data passthrough
This option reduces errors when printing complex jobs from applications that
use PostScript formatting. When selected, EMF spooling is not available in
the Advanced tab.
PDF Settings
Provides options for printing and saving documents to Adobe PDF format.
