* ERR DIFFUSION is displayed only when RESOLUTION is set to FINE.
Specifies the display pattern of subtle gradation (medium gradation) for
black-and-white data for each text part, graphics part such as diagrams and
graphs, and image part such as picture images.
RESOLUTION prints precisely so that the lines of text data appear clearly. This
setting is appropriate for printing data that contains text or thin lines.
GRADATION prints with a smooth gradation and fine outline quality combined.
This setting is appropriate for printing diagrams or graphs in which gradation is
used.
COLOR TONE prints with a stable texture and distinct gradation, by enhancing
the contrast of tone. This setting is appropriate for printing image data such as
photographic images.
Although HIGH RESOL. prints in higher resolution than RESOLUTION does, the
stability of the texture is lower in quality. This setting is appropriate for printing a
document so that the outlines of text, thin lines, or CAD appear clearly.
ERR DIFFUSION uses an error diffusion method that gives priority to printing fine
lines or text. This setting is appropriate for printing images with small text or very
fine lines.
