Hardware classes are so short they can’t go into any Prescribe. There is a class for Prescribe but it’s mostly the filter/forms stuff and not about PDL’s. Prescribe is just another PDL I picked up dealing with Kyo issues, mostly mainframe stuff.
I did programming in high school and college, and have studied over a dozen programming languages.
I first learned OCE’s FOL (forms overlay language), but hacking Print data streams has helped understand printers and their funky ways. Planet Press taught me a lot too.
It comes down to being a programmer because print jobs are just programs to tell the robot what to do.
The hardware stuff is from things I’ve dealt with or has been relayed from my ‘sources’
