You can also create one or more additional colors using the User- Defined String feature described in Section 6.2.

To print a customized color, you need to follow these steps:

1.Set up a color palette.

2.Define the color.

3.Print the color.

For detailed information on this process, consult HP’s PCL5 Color Technical Reference Manual. Here is a quick overview of how to define and print colors using the User- Defined Command String feature.

1.To set up a color palette, send the following string to the printer (using the Host/PC download command 04).

&%Z04,0(1B 2A 76 36 57 00 00 08 08 08)

NOTE

The &%Z04,0(...) stores the actual command string (1B 2A ...) in the interface and assigns it the macro identifier U0.

2.To define and print a color, send the following string to the printer:

&%Z04,1(1B 2A 76 30 61 30 62 30 63 31 69 31 53).

PQ-8P, PQ-8S

NOTE

The first 30 (preceding the value 61) identifies the amount of red of the color. Values can range from 0 (hex

30)to 255 (hex 32 35 35). The second 30 (preceding the value 62) identifies the amount of green. The third 30 (preceding the value 63) identifies the amount of blue you are adding to the color. The color of your choice is created by mixing these three colors (red, blue, green). The number 31 (preceding the value 69) assigns your customized color the value 1. The second 31 (preceding the value 52) calls up this number again and prints it.

3.Once you have sorted the color command strings in the interface’s memory as described above, you can switch to the defined color any time by simply inserting the commands &%U0 (to set up the color palette) and &%U1 (to print the color) in the data stream.
