Notes
EscapeE directly generates output for PostScript level 2 or 3 printers without using any Windows® printer driver.
There is an option to use data compression: this usually reduces the size of the output files, though it makes them slower to generate. See To set more options for export.
The tray/bin selection specified in the PCL data can be overridden on the command line: see options /TRAY and /BIN.
