The DeskJet 1600C printer is a follow-on to the DeskJet
1200C. It has 600 x 600 dpi black text resolution (plus TES,
which is similar to RET) and 300-dpi color resolution. Like
the 1200C, the DeskJet 1600C is font- and language-
compatible with the latest LaserJet 4 series printers. The
DeskJet 1200C and 1600C contain most of the same PCL 5
color features as the Color LaserJet (described in the PCL 5
Color Technical Reference Manual), with some exceptions
and additions (see Table 1-1). DeskJet 1200C and 1600C
drivers should work on the Color LaserJet, but not vice
versa. Changes from the DeskJet 1200C are listed below.
Status
Modified 200 and 600 dpi are supported.
Modified HP-GL/2 standalone mode (-1) is not supported.
Modified Method 9, replacement delta row is added.
New Same as LaserJet 4 series printers.
Modified Autoselect (7) is added.

Modified Noise ordered dither (13) and monochrome noise ordered
dither (14) are added.
Modified The full 16-bit range for height and width is allowed.
New Font header format 16 two-byte font downloading.
New Same as LaserJet 4PJ printer.
Additional features include:
Simplified Control Panel. The IEEE-P1284 ECP port
described below allows front-panel simplification and the
elimination of DIP switches. The DeskJet 1600C control
panel is similar to that of the LaserJet 4L, with one
button and four LED indicators.
