Using Various Print Functions Using Various Print Functions This section briefly describes various print functions that you can configure with the printer driver to make printouts appropriate for your purposes. Print Quality Functions Print quality and color tone can be adjusted to suit the print data. Some of the print quality settings you can configure are described below. Printing color documents in black and white The black produced in black and white printing is a more distinct black than that produced in color printing. Separating the print data into CMYK and printing in designated color only Normally, all four colors (CMYK) are used for color printing. If you do not want to use certain colors, you can disable the use of those colors and print using other colors only. Saving toner when printing (Economy Color printing) You can save toner by printing with lower toner consumption. Changing the image printing method You can select to print with priority on print quality or print speed. When printing images, the higher the resolution of images is, the longer the time is required for printing. Changing the dither pattern A dither pattern is a pattern of dots used to simulate a color or shade of an image. If the pattern is changed, the characteristics of the image will also change. You can select a pattern suitable for the image to be printed. Changing the color profiling pattern You can select a color profiling pattern to adjust the tone of colors according to the colors displayed on the computer screen. Because colors on the computer screen are created using the three RGB colors while colors for printing are composed of the four CMYK colors, colors need to be converted during the printing process. Therefore, images on the printed paper may look different from those on the computer screen if adjustment is not performed. Printing grayscale images using black or CMYK You can print black or gray sections of an image using black toner only, instead of using all CMYK toners. Compared to the black printed with CMYK toner, this results in a black that is flatter and purer. 93
