EcoPrint changes toner saturation, making the entire image, text and graphics,
appear lighter in the printed job. The actual amount of toner used depends on the
printing system model, the type of data printed (text, graphics, or both), and whether
it is monochrome or color. EcoPrint does not increase print speed.
1 From the Print Quality list, select Custom and the EcoPrint dialog box becomes
available.
2 Select EcoPrint.
Note: EcoPrint is unavailable if Gloss Mode is selected.
Selecting Gloss mode simulates high-gloss copies by adding a glossy appearance
to printed text and images.
Note: Gloss mode is unavailable if EcoPrint is selected.
In color printing, color toners are applied separately to a page. An image must be
broken down into its component colors by creating color separations of cyan,
magenta, yellow and black. These color separations must be aligned (registered)
precisely to produce a quality full-color image. If the colors are not correctly aligned
on a page, the paper may show through in gaps between adjoining colors. Color
trapping alleviates this problem by intentionally overlapping colors slightly so that
minor problems with alignment are not noticeable.
