Of course, the screen was monochrome black and white, so you’d have to print things to see them, and I’m not aware of any printer driver ever supporting it (Color QuickDraw, when it arrived, didn’t build on this, as far as I know).
Chances also are this part of the code was less well exercised than other parts. It may have been buggy.

On the plus side, colors were 32-bit (see http://mirror.informatimago.com/next/developer.apple.com/doc..., where both fgColor and bkColor are 32 bits), but as indicated in the first link, you could only record a fixed set of 8 colors in pictures.
