What is a Printer Driver?

Printer drivers are programs developed to translate the language of an application to a language the printer can understand such as Postscript, PCL, or Windows Printing System. You must have a driver installed to print.

Printer drivers also allow users to manipulate settings which affect the output of the printer. These settings or features vary from product to product but will typically include options for such things as paper handling, tray selection, and default font.
