1. Use the [Print black & white] function to define how jobs are printed: in black & white or in
colour.
2. Use the [Image smoothing] function to apply an anti-aliasing algorithm to smooth images
with a low resolution.
3. Use the [Moiré reduction for images] function to apply a Moiré reduction algorithm to
enhance photographic images. Please note that when images have a resolution below 300
dpi, the Moiré reduction only takes effect when the image smoothing function is enabled.
4. Use the [PDF overprint simulation] function to make opaque objects look transparent.
Underlying objects become visible. If this function is disabled, the colours on top will knock
out all underlying colours.
5. Use the [Preserve pure black] function to apply pure black preservation when possible. Pure
black preservation means that the colour black is composed of 100% K ink. When pure black
preservation is not possible or disabled, the colour black is composed of a mixture of C, M, Y,
and K inks.
6. Use the [Spot colour matching] function to enable or disable spot colour matching.
7. Use the [PDF/X output intent] function to define that PDF files are printed according to their
embedded output intent. PDF/X specifies the printing condition for which the PDF/X file was
created. The Device CMYK input profile and the job ticket are ignored.
8. Use the [Overprinting black] function to force black text and graphics to print over the
background colour. The native PDF RIP uses this function to prevent registration artefacts
when black objects are printed on a coloured background.
