Variable Color Balance (Yellow, Magenta, Cyan, Black); Sharpness - Xerox 50 System Administration Manual

1
These options allow you to adjust the default
levels of all four process colors (Yellow, Magenta,
Cyan, and Black) for areas of high, medium, and
low density on the copies.
Three higher settings, three lower settings, and
the normal (medium) settings are available for
each density level of each color, as illustrated in
2
Figure 26.
You can adjust each density level and each color
independently in any combination.
KEY POINT: Remember that adjusting the
amount of any of the process colors affects the
complementary colors that use that color. For
3
example, when yellow is adjusted, both red and
green are affected.
The Sharpness option allows you to adjust the
amount of image edge definition on the copies.

NOTE: For optimum sharpness, select the correct
Original Type in the Image Quality tab.
Use the Sharp levels (Figure 27) to increase the
amount of edge definition for original documents
such as maps, line art, or graphics that have crisp
lines.
Use the Soft levels (Figure 27) to decrease the
amount of edge definition to copy photographs or
5
any other documents for which softer, less
focused, output copies are desired. This option is
especially useful when copying very coarse dot
screens.
