Access: read-only

Description: The family name of a Page Description Language (PDL) or control language which this interpreter in the printer can interpret or emulate. Additional information: Replaces PCL-NAME and FW-ROM-DATECODE ( sort of). Also provides a place to supply PJL information and overall ROM information ( by using the language switcher as a separate language).

What is prtinterpreterlangfamily?

This read-only object identifies the family of Page Description or control language an interpreter can process, such as PCL, PJL, PostScript, or automatic language sensing, replacing the older PCL-NAME object. An admin scanning the interpreter table uses this to know which languages the printer can natively handle before sending a job in a specific format. For example, finding ePlangAutomatic(37) among the listed interpreters confirms the printer can auto-detect and switch between PCL and PostScript jobs without the sender specifying a language.
