• Printer A: High Density
This setting is suitable for high density printers, such as 24 dot matrix
printers and page printers. With this function applied, the image is converted
into a light image as it is scanned to compensate for the higher (darker)
density of such printers. The same image will look faint when viewed on a
CRT display.
• Printer B: Low Density
This setting is suitable for low density printers, such as 8 dot (9 pin) printers,
page printers, and ink jet printers. As it is scanned, the image is converted
into a slightly lighter image to compensate for the lower density of such
printers. This setting is lighter than Printer Output A. The image will look
slightly faint when viewed on a CRT display.
• Printer C: High Contrast
This setting is suitable for the high contrast printing of images that contain
both photos and text. This setting gives higher contrast and more definition
to the darker areas, like characters and lines, than either Printer Output A or
B, while parts with graphic images are given gamma correction for printing.
Both the darker and lighter parts of the images are accentuated by this
method.
Color Correction
Color Correction processes the color data of the image so that the data is better
suited to the characteristics of the color output device. With the color correction
function, reproduction of the colors of the image data comes closer to the colors
in the original images.
• CRT Displays
This setting adjusts colors for the characteristics of color CRT displays.
• Thermal transfer printers
This setting compensates for the characteristics of thermal transfer printers.
• Impact dot matrix printers
This setting compensates for the characteristics of color impact dot matrix
printers.
• Ink jet printers
