black with the underlying CMY values equal to those of the printed
background. As a result, misregistrations are not visible.
Black Overprint ensures that 100% black text prints cleanly within a tint
or picture area. Occasionally, white lines may appear around black text
and the text may appear less dense than desired as a result of
misregistration between color separations. With Black Overprint, the
Pure Black Text / Graphics option is automatically activated and there
are no knock-outs under the black text. However, a knock-out occurs
when you print only the topmost color. This results in less color density
and can cause misregistration if separations are not perfectly aligned.

PS Overprint offers the option to use the overprint, which exists in the
PostScript file. It also determines whether the DTP application PS
Overprint settings are honored in the RIP.
Spire CXP8000 color server settings override PS Overprint commands
from DTP applications. For example, if PS Overprint was set to
DTP application, selecting PS Overprint
server results in no overprinting. The Spire CXP8000 color server can
not create PS Overprint that is not predefined in the file. Selecting PS
Overprint for a file that has not had overprinting defined in a DTP
