System information

Specify the trap width
Trap Width values determine how thick the trapped area between objects is. You specify the width values relative to
the paper feed direction: Horizontal is perpendicular to the feed direction and Vertical is parallel to the feed
direction.
1
In Device Center, click the Color Setup tab and click Trapping.
2
For Trap Width, specify the horizontal and vertical widths. Or, if you want to force the values to be equal, select
the link icon displayed between the horizontal and vertical values. If the values are different when you select the
link icon, the higher of the two values is used for both.
Horizontal - Defines the horizontal thickness of the trapped areas (0-10 pixels).
Vertical - Defines the vertical thickness of the trapped areas (0-10 pixels).
The bitmap image provides a dynamic visual example of the selected values.
Specify trap color reduction
Trap Color Reduction values determine how much of each color is applied in the trap. The trap between two objects
of different colors can create a line of a third color that is a combination of the two colors. You can reduce the
appearance of this line using Trap Color Reduction.
The values you specify are the percent reduction of the toner. A 100% reduction results in no toner intensity applied
to the trap. A 0% reduction results in the same toner intensity as the object edge.
1
In Device Center, click the Color Setup tab and click Trapping.
2
Under Trap Color Reduction, specify the values for the color channels:
Cyan - Defines the trap reduction in cyan (0-100%).
Magenta - Defines the trap reduction in magenta (0-100%).
Yellow - Defines the trap reduction in yellow (0-100%).
Black - Defines the trap reduction in black (0-100%).
3
(Optional) If you want to force all the reduction values to be the same, select the link icon displayed between the
trap reduction values. If the values are different when you select the link icon, the highest value is used for all
values.
The icon to the left of each color provides a visual example of the selected value.
Specify trap shape
Trap Shape represents how a single pixel appears when trapped against a contrasting background. With elements
bigger than one pixel, the shape, or part of the shape, is only visible at the corners of objects.
1
In Device Center, click the Color Setup tab and click Trapping.
2
Under Trap Shape, select either Ellipse, Diamond, or Rectangle.
