[DNG] PostScript vs PCL

2018-03-16 Thread wirelessduck
Seeing all the rage against non-PS printing here recently, I’m wondering how PCL compares? Is it better/worse/equal to PostScript? Is there any reason to prefer one over the other? —Tom ___ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.
