We have a customer's question, does DECwindows/Xwindows support
LCG01 color printers? The LCG01 supports ReGIS, color sixel, GIDIS
and NAPLPS graphics protocols. Thanks,
Wen-Wei

As far as I know, currently DECwindows doesn't support color printing. To get color printing on my LJ250, I've had to use UTOX. For more information on UTOX, look at the UTOX notesfiles on node CLT. | |||||

Thank you for the information, the reason I asked was that after
I received the call from the customer, I did some test on our LCG01.
I used screen dump to a sixel file, then printed it to LCG01. I
got a all-black output. Then I looked the sixel file and deleted
some blank lines from the second line and printed it out to LCG01
again. This time, I got a small graphs on the lower left corner.
(of course the balck and white)
I also tried the DCL IMAGE RENDER command. I used screen dump to
DDIF first, then rendered it to sixel with the qualifier of
DEVICE=LN03, since the LCG01 is not supported. Well, I got a
multiple pages output.
I thought the LCG01 might not be supported currently, but do we
have any plan to support it in the very near future? Thank you
again,
Wen-Wei

I think you can get color output from the RAGS graphics editor. See the
VAXUUM::DOC_GRAPHICS notesfile for details.
