HP (Hewlett-Packard) PCL 5 Printer User Manual


 
The emphasis in the previous command sequence is that
the Raster Presentation Mode, Raster Resolution, Raster
Height, and Raster Width are all set outside the
start..data..end sequence of commands. Also, the entire
image is sent during the start..data..end sequence, choosing
the most effective compression method for each raster row
of data.
Raster Presentation, Raster Resolution, Raster Height,
Raster Width, and Raster Compression are all true modes.
Once specified, the printer remains in that mode unless
explicitly changed by issuing the command again, or reset
to default values by a soft reset, self test, font printout, or
power cycle.
Note Only raster data appearing within the intersection of the
logical page, the printable area, the raster width, and
height is printed. If raster width and/or raster height have
not been set (are defaulted), then the intersection of the
logical page and the printable area determines where raster
graphics appear; raster data is clipped to the printable area.
