Neutral Grays
The Neutral Grays drop-down menu controls the selection of a device-dependent color table that is
embedded in the product firmware. You can adjust the Neutral Grays setting independently for text,
graphics, or photographs. The following options are available:
●
Black Only. This option generates neutral colors (grays and black) by using only black toner.
This option guarantees that neutral colors do not have a color cast. Black Only is the default
setting for the Text and Graphics components.
●
4-Color. This option generates neutral colors by combining all four colors of toner, which
produces smoother gradients and transitions to non-neutral colors. It also produces the darkest
possible black. 4-Color is the default setting for Photographs.
General
Use the General setting group to control Edge Control and Halftone settings for all color printing.
Edge Control
Edge Control determines how edges are rendered. Edge Control consists of three components:
●
Adaptive Halftoning, which increases edge sharpness
●
Trapping, which reduces the effect of color plane misregistration by slightly overlapping the
edges of adjacent objects
●
Color Resolution Enhancement Technology (C-REt), which increases the apparent resolution by
placing each dot for the smoothest edges
