Neutral Grays

The Neutral Grays setting determines the method for
creating gray colors used in text, graphics, and
photographs.

Black Only generates neutral colors (grays and black) by using
only black toner. This guarantees neutral colors without a color
cast. This setting is best for documents and grayscale viewgraphs.

4-Color generates neutral colors (grays and black) by combining
all four toner colors. This method produces smoother gradients
and transitions to other colors, and it produces the darkest black.

Edge Control

The Edge Control setting determines how edges are
rendered. Edge control has two components:
adaptive halftoning and trapping. Adaptive halftoning
increases edge sharpness. Trapping reduces the
effect of color-plane misregistration by overlapping
the edges of adjacent objects slightly.

Maximum is the most aggressive trapping setting. Adaptive
halftoning is on.

Normal sets trapping at a medium level. Adaptive halftoning is on.

Light sets trapping at a minimal level, Adaptive halftoning is on.

Off turns off both trapping and adaptive halftoning.

RGB Color

Default (sRGB) instructs the product to interpret RGB color as
sRGB. The sRGB standard is the accepted standard of Microsoft
and the World Wide Web Consortium (

http://www.w3.org

).

Vivid instructs the product to increase the color saturation in the
midtones. Less colorful objects are rendered more colorfully. This
setting is recommended for printing business graphics.

Photo interprets RGB color as if it were printed as a photograph
using a digital mini-lab. It renders deeper, more saturated colors
differently than Default (sRGB) mode. Use this setting for printing
photos.

Photo (AdobeRGB 1998) is for digital photos that use the
AdobeRGB color space rather than sRGB. When printing from a
professional software program that uses AdobeRGB, it is
important to turn off the color management in the software program
and allow the product to manage the color space.

None sets the printer to print RGB data in raw device mode. To
render photographs correctly when this option is selected, you
must manage color in the program in which you are working or in
the operating system.
