Error Diffusion
Fine Dithering
MicroWeave
MicroWeave allows your printer to generate superior output
because graphics data is re-ordered and printed in finer
increments. This technology reduces the possibility of banding,
the light horizontal lines that can mar an image.
Super (MicroWeave) will be selected, depending on other
settings as described above. You may want to select Super if
your printout still has banding problems even with
MicroWeave turned on. However, the printing time is longer
when Super is selected.
Select this setting when printing
documents that contain detailed
graphics or photographic images.
Error diffusion blends individual
colored dots with the colors of the
surrounding dots to create the
appearance of natural colors. By
blending colored dots, the printer can
achieve excellent colors and subtle
color gradation.
Dithering arranges dots in orderly
patterns and is best suited for
printing charts, graphs, and other
images that require precise, solid
areas of bright colors. Select Fine
Dithering for images with significant
detail but limited shading.
