need a PCL 5 lanquage ref guide

I need to change the pitch and font for a unix priner within a model script. Anyone know of where i can find the PCL 5 lanquage notes that used to appear at the back of older printer reference guides?

Re: need a PCL 5 lanquage ref guide

The PCL5 model script in HP-UX has all of this capability built-in. Here are some guides:

DeskJets:

Take a look at the book "Developer's Guide to HP Printers", Norman E. Smith, ISBN 1-55622-603-9. You can order a manual bundle from HP as well:
