I'm trying to print arbitrary color text on a PCL5 printer, but am not having much luck.
Every example and document only describes how to do "simple color" (*r3U) text; I'd like to be able to do RGB colors.
I have managed to use CID (*v#W) *PLUS* the pallet config parameters (*v#a#b#c#I) and it works beautifully... but it seems like I'm missing something easy to not have to define 16M colors at the start of every document...
Does the direct-index thing (*v6W[2][3][0][8][8][8]) ONLY work on graphics, leaving us to have to define every text color before using it if it isn't in the simple color list?
To be clear, I'm doing (*v#S) to set foreground color, and I do *GET* color, depending on what options I choose for *v#W, but they are FAR from the RGB colors I am expecting them to be (mostly blue, black, red, white for RGB and yellow, cyan, grey, and black for CYMK pallets).
TIA!
