User Setup Information

Contrast
Controls the degree of difference between the light and dark
areas of an image. When you increase contrast, the light areas
become very light and the dark areas become very dark. When
you decrease contrast, the difference in intensity is more subtle,
making the whites and bright colors more muted and the
blacks appear very dark gray.
Color Matching
Controls the printer’s color correction features based on the
selected Document Type. Color Matching is automatically set
to the most appropriate setting when you select a particular
document type or use the Automatic setting. It is best to leave
Color Matching set to the driver’s selection.
The settings perform the following functions:
❑
Off turns off color matching so you can use your
application program’s color correction features.
❑
Vivid intensifies the colors while lightening the midtones
and highlights in images such as presentation graphics and
charts.
❑
Photo-realistic increases the contrast in images such as
color photographs.
❑
Standard adjusts colors so they closely match the original
screen colors in images such as illustrations.
