Printing the same HP-GL/2 file
The situation is that you have produced an HP-GL/2 file (also known as a PLT file) using the HP-
GL/2 driver installed for one printer, and you intend to send the same file to both printers.
1. Ensure that both printers have been updated to the latest firmware version. See
Update my
printer's firmware.
2. Ensure that Color Calibration is turned on. At the front panel of the HP Designjet 4000 Printer
series, select the
icon, then Printer configuration > Color calibration > On .
3. Load the printers with similar paper types.
4. Ensure that the Paper Type setting on the front panel corresponds to the paper you have loaded.
5. If you have an HP-GL/2 file produced for an HP Designjet 1000 Printer series and you want to
print it on an HP Designjet 4000 Printer series, proceed as follows using the Embedded Web
Server or the front panel.
● Using the Embedded Web Server: leave the color options set to Default.
●
Using the front panel: select the
icon, then Default printing options > Color options >
Select RGB input profile > HP Designjet 1000 Series.
For other HP Designjet printers, set both printers to match the screen colors (sRGB if
selectable), as when printing with separate HP-GL/2 drivers.
