6. Choose one of the following
Halftoning
options:
◗
No Halftoning
For printing black text only.
◗
Error Diffusion
For printing photographic or video/digital camera
images. Blends each dot of color with the
surrounding dots.
◗
Fine Dithering, Coarse Dithering
For printing charts, graphs, and other images that
require precise, solid areas of bright colors. Arranges
dots in orderly patterns. Use
Coarse
for images with
more shading and less detail. Use
Fine
for images
with more detail and less shading.
7. Choose any of the following options. Some of these
settings are automatically selected or disabled by the
Quality
(resolution) you choose.
◗
MicroWeave
For improved print quality. Prints graphic data in
finer increments to eliminate unwanted banding
effects (light horizontal lines). Always use for color
printing.
◗
High Speed
For fast, bidirectional printing at lower quality.
◗
Flip Horizontal
Prints a mirror image of your document. Use for
printing with iron-on transfer paper. When you iron
the printout onto a T-shirt or other item, it will read
correctly.
◗
Finest Detail
For printing text, graphics, and line art with very
sharp edges. Slows print speed and increases your
system memory requirements.
8. Click
OK
if you’re ready to print, or see the next section
if you want to adjust your printer’s color settings.
Note:
In Automatic mode, the
Halftoning setting is selected
based on the data in your
print job. In Advanced mode,
Halftoning is preselected for
each document type setting.
No Halftoning is available
only when you select Black
as the Ink setting.
If vertical lines in your
printout are misaligned when
you use the High Speed
setting, you may need to
align the print heads. See
Chapter 5, “Maintenance
and Transportation,” for
instructions.
