'SpotColorPalette.pcl' Test Print Job
Introduction
This test print job can be used to test the color palette in the HLC color space.
Each test page contains information on the current configuration of the printing system
in the left-hand margin.
PCL Basic Colors
A color component can be assigned to each color. All color spaces supported in the PCL
mode are created with three components. Each of these components is a byte that shows
the semi-tone value of the color components.
A color component may only be allocated once in a print unit. The color component can
however be allocated differently between the upper and lower print units. On the operator
panel, the PCL basic colors can be set via the 'Configuration' -> 'Color' -> 'Color station
selection' menu path.
These PCL basic colors are used to define a color palette for the test print job. At least
two pages are printed, each containing 25 color bars — one page for the upper print unit
and one for the lower. If the PCL primary colors for the upper and lower print unit differ,
different colors are printed on the front and back pages.
Required Paper Width and Length
To accommodate the 25 color bars, the paper width must be at least 10 inches. If the set
paper width is less than 10 inches, the test printout will be truncated at the right edge.
The total paper length required is 22 inches. If the set paper length is less than 22 inches,
the color bars will be distributed across multiple pages.
