Color Printing
Overview
Introduction
This chapter provides an overview of color printing with
Hewlett-Packard printers. A primary goal for HP color printers has
always been WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) color,
where the color displayed on the screen while creating a document is
the same as the color in the printed document. However, this goal has
been very difficult to realize due to a number of factors such as:
• Some colors that can be shown on a computer display cannot
be reproduced by a printer.
• The Cyan, Magenta, and Yellow colors used to create the
colors specified in a document can differ in hue and quality
from printer to printer, even printers from the same
manufacturer. Furthermore, the colors produced by a given
printer can change over time, due to internal changes as well
as temperature and humidity.
Until recently, these and other problems have led HP to approach
color matching by presenting a PCL 5 color command set giving
users the ability to make both major and minor color print quality
adjustments.
However, the emergence of sRGB (standard Red Green Blue) as an
international color data standard and the growing sophistication of
Hewlett-Packard printers has allowed HP to provide high quality
WYSIWYG color documents with a much simpler PCL color
command set. Therefore, this manual has two main parts: Chapters 1
through 7 present the latest, simplified PCL 5 color command set, and
the appendices describe the command set described in Chapters 1
through 4 as they are supported by the Color LaserJet, Color
LaserJet 5, DeskJet 1200C, and DeskJet 1600C printers.
Chapters 5 – 7 pertain to both sets of printers.
