Printer Emulation
If you want to print a job and see approximately the same colors that you would
get from printing the same job on a different Designjet printer, you can use the
emulation mode provided by your printer.
Note:
Printer emulation is available only when printing an HP-GL/2 job on plain or
coated paper.
To use printer emulation:
1. In the Windows HP-GL/2 driver dialog, select
Color
tab.
2. Select
Printer Managed Colors
.
3. From the
Source Profile
list, select
Printer Emulation
.
4. Select from the
Emulated Printer
list.
Printing Greyscale or Black-and-White
You can convert all colors in your image to shades of grey as follows:
•
Application Program
: Many applications provide this option.
•
Windows Driver Dialog
: From the
Color
tab, choose
Color Options
.
•
Select Print in Greyscale
. Only the black ink will be used for printing, except
if the paper loaded is glossy, in which case colored inks are used to compose
the gray shades. You can also select
Print in pure black and white
if you
want only black and white output with no gray shades. In this case, only black
ink will be used for printing.
Note:
The
Print in pure black and white option
is not supported when
printing on glossy paper.
