There are probably several ways to print the MI default palette colours.
Like palette.zip available in the directionsmag tool bank. But I do not
think that it answers your question fully.
If you make a thematic map based on individual values, these colours will be
picked up in the default palette. But if you use a range definition with
colour autospread, the extreme colours will certainly come from the default
palette, but for the intermediate colours, I am not that sure.
I have dealt with this topic in "My (MI) Bag o'Tricks" available from our
site as a PDF file and I could not come up with a straight answer. I simply
observed that the intermediate colours were very close to RGB definitions
obtained by spreading in equal steps the three components between the
extreme values; close but no cigar. Besides I had some problems identifying
them in the default palette, indeed a success rate close to 0. My conclusion
is that some if not all are un-defined-in-the-palette colours and come from
the general universe of 256*256*256*... possible colours. Very possible
because any MI table can contain up to 256 different colour definitions and
that none can come from default palette. (you can see a demo of that in
colorfun.zip available free on our site.
Therefore, what would you like to print?

Is there a way to print a color palette that MI uses when dealing with
thematic mapping?
