I believe that is the case; for text, you have to select a colour via a palette index, and with palettes with 3 -> 8 bits per index, the default palette has specific colours (Black, Red, Green, Yellow, Blue, Magenta, Cyan, White) defined for indices 0 -> 7, and black for indices > 7.

The PCL5 Colour Technical Reference manual describes a number of other sequences (Render Algorithm, User Defined Dither Matrix, Gamma Correction, Color Lookup Tables, Viewing Illuminant) which may affect colour rendition.

 

I'm not that familiar with any of these, so can't offer any advice as to how much of an effect they would have on your symptoms.
