HP L 5 manual Pattern Transparency Mode Command, ? * v # O

Pattern Transparency Mode Command

The Pattern Transparency Mode command sets the pattern's transparency mode to transparent or opaque.

?* v # O

# = 0	-	Transparent
1	-	Opaque
Default	=	0
Range	=	0, 1 (other values cause the command to be ignored)

	A transparency mode of “0” (transparent) means that the white
	regions of the pattern image are not copied onto the destination. A
	transparency mode of “1” (opaque) means that the white pixels in the
	pattern are applied directly onto the destination.
Note	When printing white rules, the pattern transparency is treated as if it
	were “opaque”; white rules erase black rules regardless of the
	transparency mode.
	For RGB color images, “white” pixels are those for which all color
	primaries are 255. For CMY color images, “white” pixels are those for
	which all color primaries are 0.
	White dots introduced in the dithering process are not subject to
	transparency modes.
	Refer to the preceding definitions and the discussion of Figure 5-2
	and Figure 5-3 for an explanation of the effects of pattern
	transparency.
