CONVERSION MODULE

XCHANGE::PCL Module
The XCHANGE::PCL printer emulation module of the Solimar® Print Director™ Enterprise (SPDE) converts mainframe and Xerox LCDS/Metacode applications into PCL for distribution to workgroup and production printers.

XCHANGE::PCL emulates Xerox LPS Metacode printers in online and offline modes. Data streams and resources are converted in real-time into PCL specifically optimized for the output device.

The data conversions can reach 20,000+ pages per minute on a Pentium 800.
