Print drivers

Printix maintains a global driver store with Windows and macOS print drivers. When users start to use the Printix Client, it automatically uploads print drivers and puts them in your Printix driver store. If a particular printer has no dedicated print driver, an appropriate Universal print driver may be used.

Printix Client for Mac uses Apple's Generic PostScript Printer and Generic PCL Printer if the printer has no dedicated or Universal print driver.

You can add a print driver to your Printix driver store to deal with these scenarios:

• Newly released printer

  The printer is just released, and therefore, the print driver is not among the print drivers in the driver store.

• Selected print driver lacks features

  The selected print driver (such as a universal/generic print driver) does not fully support the features of the printer.

• Selected print driver lacks language support

  The selected print driver does not support the language required. Some Asian countries for example require special print driver packages for language support.

• No print driver was selected for the printer

  If the printer does not support PostScript, PCL6, or PCL5, then a Universal print driver is not available, and you have to use a dedicated print driver from the printer vendor.
