host-based printing

computer renders the print job before it is sent to the printer

PDL-based printing

print job is transferred from computer to printer for rendering
alternative printing methodologies The HP Entry Color LaserJet printer series deploys two different printing methodologies, Printer Description Language (PDL) and host-based, to meet a variety of user needs. It is important to determine the right printing methodology for your unique printing environment. PDL-based printers: All of the HP Color LaserJet 2500 models, like many printers available today, are conventional PDL-based printers, meaning they have PCL 6, PCL 5c and PostScript Level 3 emulation embedded in the printers firmware. With PDL-based printers the print data is transferred directly to the printer for rendering, offering users more flexibility pertaining to printer drivers. PDL-based printers will work with previous, standardized printer drivers, simple text string, and custom commands sent directly to the printer. PDL-based printers are compatible with a wider variety of operating and network operating systems, including Windows, Macintosh, Linux, UNIX and OS/2. These printers are recommended for shared print environments of two or more users that want the flexibility to print with different printer drivers and from different operating systems. Host-based printers: The HP Color LaserJet 1500 series is a host-based printer, meaning it relies on the host computer to render the print job before it is sent to the printer. The benefit of host-based printers is usually lower acquisition costssince the processing occurs on the host computer the printer requires less processor power and memory than conventional PDL-based printers. These lower requirements allow HP to provide a color laser printer at an incredible low price. To achieve the lower acquisition price there are trade-offs to be considered. Since host-based printers rely on the computers processor they require a specific driver for each supported host and these drivers are unique to each operating system. Host-based printers are compatible with select Windows and Macintosh operating systems. A host-based printer is ideal for one or two users working within one of the supported operating systems. service and support from HP HP offers a variety of support options to assist you in the setup and maintenance of this printer series. Start with the included one-year Return to HP warranty that covers phone support backed by award winning HP Customer Care. To further ensure trouble-free operation and to maximize the capabilities of your printer you can upgrade your service and support options to include extended printer maintenance and network installation.
