HP-GL/2 Commands and Syntax There are two classes of commands used to print vector graphics: PCL printer language commands and HP-GL/2 commands. As the name implies, the PCL printer language commands are used when in the PCL printer language mode. They define the area on the page where HP-GL/2 graphics are printed and provide a means to enter HP-GL/2 mode. The HP-GL/2 commands are used within HP-GL/2 mode. They define the image that is printed, and allow you to return to the PCL printer language mode. The HP-GL/2 language has its own syntax, and each command is listed in this section of the manual. The vector graphics commands have been grouped into functional categories. The categories are designated as shown in Table 17-1 through . Each of the command categories is discussed in its own chapter, beginning with Chapter 19, The Configuration and Status Group.
