Allows your printer to emulate a monochrome or color plotter.

Choices
On—Sets the printer to monochrome (2 pen).
Off—Sets the printer to color (8 pen). Since a monochrome
print system has two pen colors only (black and white),
grayscale patterns are substituted for other colors.
The printer maps each pen to its assigned color, then converts
the color to a grayscale using the National Television System
Committee (NTSC) color standard for luminosity coefficients
(Additive System):
Y = .3R + .59G + .11B
