HP Designjet Z2100 Printing Guide [HP Raster Driver] - Printing in Black & White [Adobe Photoshop CS2 - Windows]

The simplest approach to creating a black and white image is taking a color image and converting it

to grayscale in a photo imaging program such as Photoshop. In addition, although converting an

image from color to grayscale is easy, the opposite operation is complex, in this case it is better to

have it already in color. If your image is already converted, you only have to bypass the section 5.

• See the

Media type functionality & features and choose the most appropriate media.
