B-14 Using Color Modes (Color LaserJet, 5, 5M, DeskJet) EN
A value of 0 defaults the black and white reference values for primary
#1 according to the color space.
Byte 4 (Number of Bits for Primary #2)
This byte is ignored in pixel encoding modes 0 and 1, but affects the
black and white references in device-dependent color spaces. In
Device RGB, the black reference for primary #2 is set to 0, and the
white reference is set to 2
n
– 1, where n is the number of bits for
primary #2. These references are reversed in Device CMY color
space.
In pixel encoding mode 2, this byte is ignored except in Device
RGB and Device CMY color spaces, where it designates the
number of data bits needed to specify primary #2, as well as
the number of data planes to be sent for primary #2.
In pixel encoding mode 3, this byte designates the number of
data bits needed to specify primary #2.
A value of 0 defaults the black and white reference values for primary
#2 according to the color space.
Byte 5 (Number of Bits for Primary #3)
This byte is ignored in pixel encoding modes 0 and 1, but affects the
black and white references in device-dependent color spaces. In
Device RGB, the black reference for primary #3 is set to 0, and the
white reference is set 2
n
1, where n is the number of bits for primary
#3. These references are reversed in Device CMY space.
In pixel encoding mode 2, this byte is ignored except in Device
RGB and Device CMY color space, where it designates the
number of data bits needed to specify primary #3, as well as
the number of data planes to be sent for primary #3.
In pixel encoding mode 3, this byte designates the number of
data bits needed to specify primary #3.
A value of 0 defaults the black and white reference values for primary
#3 according to the color space.
