Thank you for the question. PCL3 is not part of the model number. It stands for "Printer Control Language". Chances are that you won't need to be concerned with it unless using for business or the software that you use needs a particular driver. Printer Control Language is a language (essentially, a set of command codes) that enables applications to control HP DeskJet, LaserJet, and other HP printers. Many personal computer users find themselves in need of PCL drivers (small programs that interface between the operating system and the printer) after purchasing a new HP or HP-compatible printer and attaching it to their existing PC and operating system. PCL drivers are available for downloading from HP.com.
