 Command:  Print/Modes/Text-Data Printing         < PMT > 
 Purpose:  SWITCH--Control text/graphics method of printing    
 Information:
     Text/Data mode is sensitive to the various Options/Data 
     settings and the Print/Text Options switches.
 Comments: 
     This is the same switch as Graphics Printing--when one goes 
     on, the other goes off automatically.

 Command:  Print/Modes/Graphics Printing          < PMG > 
 Purpose:  SWITCH--Control text/graphics method of printing    
 Information:
     Once turned ON, Graphics modes are controlled under 
     Print/Graphics Options. 

     Non-numeric weave data can be shown in graphics modes.
 Comments: 
     This switch is mutually exclusive with Text/Data Printing--
     when one goes on, the other goes off automatically.

 Command:  Print/Modes/Automatic Form Feed        < PMA > 
 Purpose:  SWITCH--Control automatic page ejection after print 
 Information:
     When switch is ON, the page is ejected after each print of 
     the weaving or design.
 Comments: 
     Print/Setup/Immediate sends a form feed on demand.

 Command:  Print/Modes/7-Color Printing           < PM7 > 
 Purpose:  SWITCH--Control 7-color method of printing 
 Information:
     When this switch is ON, color prints are created by sending 
     built-in color codes to the printer.  The printer is 
     responsible for mixing green, orange, and purple, while 
     yellow, magenta, cyan, and black are created from single 
     ribbon strikes. 

     White is not available in text mode, although 7-color 
     graphics allow it.  

     In 7-color mode, several similar screen colors print as the 
     same color since there are less than half as many available.
 Comments: 
     7-color printing can be faster than mixed color printing, 
     but does not provide as a good relation between screen and 
     printed output.  Not recommended for IBM/Toshiba printers.

 Command:  Print/Modes/Color Mix Printing         < PMC > 
 Purpose:  SWITCH--Control mixed color printing mode 
 Information:
     This is the preferred method of color printing.

     With switch ON, Patternland mixes each color itself by 
     striking the ribbon bands yellow, magenta, cyan, and black 
     the number of times you specify in the Color Palette Mixer. 

     White is "mixed" by not striking ANY ribbon band.

     The default palette is designed to match standard video 
     colors.
 Comments: 
     The intensity of the color palette determines the throughput 
     speed of printing.  In the worst case, if at least one of 
     the 16 colors required four strikes of each of the four 
     ribbon bands, each print row could take up to 16 passes of 
     the printhead.  Patternland checks ahead to see the maximum 
     number of passes for each color used and avoids unnecessary 
     passes as possible.
     
     Mixed color printing produces the best relation between 
     screen and printed output on a dot matrix printer. 
     
     Mixed color printing as above is available for text mode 
     only on the HP PaintJet.  Use PaintJet Color Graph mode for 
     graphics.

 ______________________________________________________________


 Command:  Print/Modes/PaintJet Color Graph       < PMP > 
 Purpose:  SWITCH--Control use of PaintJet palette mode
 Information:
     This is the only method of color graphics printing on the 
     HP PaintJet.

     With switch ON, the Patternland Color Palette Mixer shifts 
     to PaintJet palette mode and displays color mixes as RGB 
     NTSC video values instead of the ink cartrage colors 
     yellow, magenta, cyan, and black.  The PaintJet converts 
     these RGB values by printing dots of different colors side 
     by side.
     
     Using the Color Palette Mixer's Convert Video option you can 
     transfer the current video palette to the editor for 
     modifications and fine tuning using the PaintJet manual. 
     
     Using the AutoPaintJet option, the video palette is 
     converted automatically at printing time. 
 Comments: 
     The Rainbow Print option is NOT supported for the PaintJet 
     Color Graphics palette; it shows the text mode Color Mix 
     Palette only.  For the Graphics palette sample, use the 
     PaintJet's own internal palette sample printout.

 Command:  Print/Modes/Black & White Passes       < PMB > 
 Purpose:  SETTING--Control number of ribbon strikes for B&W 
 Information:
     You can strike the printout up to four times for each 
     graphics row. This can produce especially black printouts. 
 Comments: 
     Setting this value to two is equivalent to setting the 
     printer for double strike printing in text mode.

     Setting the printer for double strike or a bold font has no 
     affect on graphics.
