You can select from several different pre-defined styles in the plugin settings. Additionally, you can also look at the Google Code Prettify page for details on how to customize the appearance of the code block. Optionally, you can also specify the programming language with an embedded code tag. However, I have not found that doing so makes any difference to the final appearance.
