HP L 5 manual

Pushing a palette does not save the following parameters.

•Foreground color

•Color components: 1st, 2nd, and 3rd

•Finish mode

•Monochrome print mode

The palette stack depth is limited by printer memory. Attempts to push a palette with insufficient memory cause an out-of-memory error. Attempts to pop from an empty stack are ignored.

Macros can push and pop palettes. A palette that was popped in an executed macro remains in effect at the end of the macro (this is not true for “called” or “overlaid” macros).

The PCL reset command (?E) or an exit to PJL causes the printer to empty the palette stack and overwrite the active palette with a non-programmable black and white palette. The HP-GL/2 commands IN and DF have no effect on the palette stack, but they do destroy the active palette and replace it with the default HP-GL/2 palette.
