7-4 Color Vector Graphics (HP-GL/2) EN
• The PCL palette and color configuration are transferred
between contexts.
• The current logical operation and pixel placement settings are
transferred between contexts.
• The current active position (CAP) is transferred between
HP-GL/2 and PCL (for
?%1B and ?%3B only).
• The PCL orientation determines the HP-GL/2 orientation.
In PCL mode, the Enter HP-GL/2 Mode command must be executed,
except when in display functions mode or within a binary data
transfer. HP-GL/2 ignores this command.
Default Settings when Entering HP-GL/2
When you enter HP-GL/2 mode, most vector graphics variables retain
their previous HP-GL/2 value. However, the following changes in the
PCL environment can affect the HP-GL/2 environment:
• Resetting the printer (
?E or control panel reset):
z Executes an IN (Initialize) command
z Defaults the PCL Picture Frame size
z Defaults the PCL Picture Frame anchor point
z Defaults the HP-GL/2 plot size
z Defaults the PCL logical page orientation
• A page size, page length, or orientation command:
z Defaults the PCL Picture Frame anchor point
z Defaults the PCL Picture Frame
z Defaults the HP-GL/2 plot size
z Defaults P1 and P2 (IP, IR commands)
z Resets the soft-clip window to the PCL Picture Frame
boundaries (IW command)
z Clears the polygon buffer (PM0, PM2)
z Updates the cursor to the lower-left corner of the picture
frame (P1).
