menu controls the selection of a device-dependent color table that is embedded in the printer firmware.
The options are Black Only or 4-Color.
●
Black Only. This option generates neutral colors (grays and blacks) by using only black toner which
ensures that neutral colors do not have a color cast.
● 4-Color. This option generates neutral colors by combining all four colors of toner, which produces
smoother gradients and transitions to non-neutral colors. It also produces the darkest possible
black.
The Halftone setting controls the selection of a device-dependent halftone algorithm that is embedded
in the printer firmware. The Halftone options, Smooth and Detail, affect the resolution and clarity of
your color output. You cannot independently adjust halftone settings for text, graphics, and photos. For
example, if you select the Smooth setting for Text, you also set Photos and Graphics to Smooth.
●
Smooth. This option provides better results for large, solid-filled print areas. It also enhances
photographs by smoothing out fine color gradations. Select this option for uniform and smooth area
fills.
●
Cyan – 155 lines per inch (lpi)
●
Magenta – 155 lpi
●
Yellow – 212 lpi
●
Black – 155 lpi
●
Detail. This option is useful for text and graphics that require sharp distinctions among lines or
colors, or for images that contain a pattern or high level of detail. Select this option for sharp edges
and detail.
●
Cyan – 190 lpi
●
Magenta – 190 lpi
●
Yellow – 200 lpi
●
Black – 212 lpi
The Color Options settings are Edge Control and RGB Color. Edge Control, which determines how
edges are rendered, consists of two components: adaptive halftoning and trapping. Adaptive halftoning
increases the edge sharpness of text and graphics while maintaining the quality of area fills. Trapping
reduces the effect of color-plane misregistration by slightly overlapping the edges of adjacent objects.
The following options are available:
● Off, which sets Trapping and Adaptive Halftoning to Off.
●
Light, which provides minimal trapping. Adaptive Halftoning is set to On.
● Normal, which provides the default Trapping setting. Adaptive Halftoning is set to On.
●
Maximum, which provides the most trapping. Adaptive Halftoning is set to On.
