If you entered the printer password in the Session Setup, you can change the following HPGL parameters in the printer:

1.HPGL Mode - Click on this list box to select HPGL_758X or HPGL/2. When the data in the plot file is ambiguous, the printer will assume the file is in the selected format.

2.HP RTL Resolution - This is used as the default resolution for HP-RTL CAP position and raster scaling. The range is 300 to 1200 (default is 300).

3.Assigned Palette - Click on this list box to select the default pen palette (0 to 8) for HPGL plots.

4.Job overrides assigned pen palette - Click on this check box to enable/disable the override option. If this box is checked, any pen settings in the HPGL plot file will override the assigned default pen palette. If this box is not checked, the assigned default pen palette will be the source for the attributes of all pens used in plotting. The only exception is for individual pens using the override setting of the Pen Attributes page, accessed by clicking a pen number on the Pen Palettes Page of the Printer Defaults Side Menu.

5.Merge Control Default - The Merge Control feature determines how the pixels of intersecting lines or graphics will be shown in the printed job. With this box unchecked (default), one line or graphic will overwrite the other. With the Merge Control checked to 'ON', a merge color (i.e. halftone) will be created at the intersection of the vectors (i.e. lines or graphics).

6.Reinitialize after EOF -If print files are streamed via any port on the system, these are treated as a single job and no reset is done between them. However, if one uses the LPD protocol to send print files one at a time, the effect is that the printer is reset after each job. If the "Reinitialize after EOF" is set to be on, the AccXES firmware will reset the printing parameters after each plot file that is received by a serial port or a parallel port.

7.Ignore PS command – Click on this check box for HP-GL DFI to ignore the Page Size (PS)command. This can be useful when printing certain defective files (i.e., incompatible with HP-750C printers).
