Guide to Printing Using Xerox Production Print Services
Specifying full-color parameters
The [Color...] icon opens a Color dialog box, which allows you to
specify job submission attributes for optimal color print quality.
Select to print the job in Grayscale or Printer Default.
Settings in the Color fields
The Color dialog box contains several Color fields in which you
can make a variety of changes to the way colored areas in the
job are printed. You can make the following specifications in the
Color fields:
•
[Print Job In]: Selects color or monochrome (grayscale)
printing for your job.
•
[Trapping]: Compensates for misregistration occurring at
the printer. When color planes are not registered exactly with
one another, white gaps and regions of shifted hue can
appear at object boundaries. Turn Trapping on by selecting
the checkbox for [On] or [Printer Default]. Select an option for
Fast Scan, either Pixels, or Printer Default. Select an option
for Slow Scan, either Pixels, or Printer Default. Select [Ok]
when complete.
•
[Black Overprint]: Prevents the background of a black
object from being removed when being printed over color.
When there is any misregistration, this background removal
causes a band of white to be visible at the edges of the black
objects that are printed directly onto colored areas. Select
[On] to eliminate this white space, or select [Off].
•
[Lightness]: A slider lets you select a value that determines
the lightness or darkness of the printed output.
– A value of -100 causes the output to appear black.
– A value of 100 causes the output to appear white.
– A value of 0 (zero) causes no change in the output.
NOTE: The output resulting from these selections may be
affected by the content of the original image.
•
[Contrast]: A slider enables you to increase or decrease the
variation between light and dark areas of the output. Higher
contrast values increase the light and dark contrast; lower
values decrease it.
– A contrast value of -100 causes the output to appear a
solid midtone gray.
