HP-GL/2 Printing

HP-GL/2 Printing

This printer supports printing using the original Canon GARO printer control language and printing using HP-GL/2 and
HP RTL emulation to print in colors resembling the colors produced by printers from other companies.
The printer automatically switches to the corresponding processing depending on whether a GARO or HP-GL/2 and
HP RTL emulation job is received.

Note

GARO is an abbreviation of Graphic Arts Language with Raster Operations.

HP-GL/2 is an abbreviation of Hewlett-Packard Graphics Language/2, and HP RTL is an abbreviation of Hewlett-Packard Ras-
ter Transfer Language.

Emulation is good for obtaining results similar to printing on other printers.

When printing from applications that support HP-GL/2 output, specify HP-GL/2 in the application's plotter output set-
tings.
HP-GL/2 and HP RTL emulation prints by emulating the Designjet 500/800 or Designjet 1000, in colors resembling col-
ors produced by these printers.
HP-GL/2 and HP RTL emulation related settings such as the printer to emulate are configured from the printer Control
Panel. (Refer to "Menu Structure

→P.486

" and "Menu Settings

→P.495

")

Note

For instructions on configuring these settings, refer to the software documentation.
It may not be possible to print jobs with excessively large amounts of data correctly.

For information on CAD colors other than HP-GL/2 and HP RTL emulation, see "Menu Settings."
