Xerox 721P87491 manual Image quality

POSTSCRIPT

The resolution of the source image (sample image) is lower than the device space, and the scaling of source-image-to- device space is an integer multiple and rotation is in multiples of 90 degrees.

Scan Conversion paints any pixel whose square region intersects the shape if the resolution of the source image is lower than that of device space, and the scaling between source image and device space is not an integer multiple.

This effect is noticeable when you are printing a sampled image with a resolution of less than 600 dpi on the printer at 600 dpi.

Image quality

DocuPrint NPS output is superior to that of other printers that use “write-black” technology in the following areas:

Black regions are darker.

Fonts of small point sizes are more readable.

Single-pixel-wide white lines on a black background are visible.

Note: The DocuPrint 92C NPS can produce a single-pixel line. However, because of the many variables involved, such as print density settings and line placement on the page, Xerox cannot guarantee the quality of these single-pixel lines. Specific questions regarding single-pixel line printing for your application should be directed to your Xerox service engineer.

Some user-defined fonts use either outlines or bitmaps that are tuned to write-black printers. As a result, these fonts appear light on the Xerox DocuPrint printers. Character rasterization for fonts that use PostScript painting operators is subject to the scan conversion rules described earlier in this chapter.

It is often difficult to determine if a PostScript master uses user- defined fonts. To do so requires studying the master in detail, unless the creator has followed the standards suggested in the PostScript reference manual and specified the fonts used by the document in a PostScript comment format. An example of this format is:

%%DocumentFonts: { <fontname> ...}

%%DocumentSuppliedFonts:{ <fontname> ...}

However, if the character shapes seem poorly rasterized, user- defined fonts probably are contained in the master. When possible, use Type 1 fonts, which are rasterized through special techniques, for best output quality.

Note that the DocuPrint PostScript interpreter applies thickening to certain graphics-rendering operations. For example, outline fonts in the Type 1 format are subject to rasterization techniques that use thickening for best quality of text rendering on Xerox devices.
