Is there a table that lists printers which support PCL or PS?

We are trying to use a printer via USB on a Yocto Ubuntu-based system. It seems that standard drivers may not be compatible, so we need a printer that supports PCL or PS. Is there a list of printers that support PCL or PS available in one place?

@sowon3435, Welcome to the HP Support Community!  

Thanks for reaching out about your query regarding PCL supporting printers! 

We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution.  

Yes, there are lists available that detail the support for PCL or PostScript (PS) for various HP printers. Many HP LaserJet models and some business InkJet/OfficeJet products support PCL and PS. HP Universal Print Drivers (UPD) provide compatibility with these printer languages, which may be advantageous for use in certain environments, such as on a Yocto Ubuntu-based system via USB.

HP provides information in their technical documents about compatible printer drivers, including which models support PCL and PS languages. For example, the HP Universal Print Driver (UPD) can operate with HP LaserJet and Business InkJet printers. HP typically supports PCL 6 and PS emulation languages, which are suitable for printing tasks in environments requiring these languages.  

Hope this helps! 

Take care, and have an amazing day!
