Color emulation of the HP Color LaserJet 4550
The PCL, PS, and HP Color LaserJet 5550 series printer drivers include a Print Task Quick
Set called "HP Color LaserJet 4550 Color Emulation." This Print Task Quick Set allows you
to easily set the printer to emulate the colors of the HP Color LaserJet 4550 printer. In
general, the emulation color rendering has more contrast and is darker in appearance. This
emulation works well with documents that contain graphics.
