Xerox Printer User Manual

USING HFDL COMMANDS
Parameters Inkname identifies all of the inks you use to create your form. If
you use a reserved word such as BLACK as an ink name, you
must enclose it in single quotes: ’BLACK’. You must also enclose
ink names with embedded blanks in single quotes.
NOSUBSTITUTION specifies that ink substitutes are not allowed
for this ink. If you do not specify this parameter, the printer
attempts to substitute another ink. Full color printers ignore this
parameter.
Default The printer default ink, if you do not specify the INK (highlight
color only).
Example Long form:
INKS RED, PINK;
There is no short form.

Once you establish an INK command parameter (catalog, palette,
or ink color), it remains in effect until you change it or another
parameter overrides it. A color or palette name containing one
or more blank spaces requires quotes around the name.
Defaults The user catalog specified in the ICATALOG command, if you do
not specify a catalog in the INK command.
System default catalog, if you do not specify a default catalog
(highlight color only).
The palette you specify in the PALETTE command, if you do not
specify a palette in the INK command.
System default palette, if you do not specify a default palette
(highlight color only).
When the ink color begins with a digit, you must specify it within
quotes.
Examples This example shows you how to use the single quotes in
describing specific inks:
RED or ‘RED’
PAL1.‘RED’, or ‘PAL1’.‘RED’, or PAL1.RED
CAT1.PAL1.‘RED’, or CAT1.‘PAL1’.‘RED’, or CAT1.‘PAL1’.RED, or
