Imaging

This setting increases print speed and decreases spool size. It delivers images in binary format. It can be used for most everyday printing needs.

Document portability

This setting creates a PostScript file in ASCII text encoding. Unlike the binary format created in Fast printing, the ASCII text created with this selection can be edited.

CIE Optimization

CIE optimization bypasses the normal procedure of processing every aspect of the CIE color space used in applications such as Adobe Acrobat and Photoshop. This feature increases print speed for documents printed from these applications by optimizing CIE data. It has no effect on print jobs that do not use CIE data. CIE optimization should be selected for speed not accuracy, so printed output may be different from appearance on the screen.

In the Imaging tab, click Graphics to open the Graphics settings dialog box and access the CIE optimization check box. CIE optimization is available when KPDL is selected in the PDL Settings dialog box.

Image Compression Mode

Image compression mode lets you select a method for compressing images depending on the desired quality in printed images. JPEG compression produces a lower quality image, while delta row compression produces a higher quality image but creates a larger file size. Image compression mode is available when KPDL or PCL XL is selected in the PDL Settings dialog box.

In Imaging > Graphics Settings, select from the following compression options:

Smaller file size

Uses JPEG compression

High quality

Uses delta row compression

Color Mode

Color mode lets you choose full-color printing or printing with black toner only.

The following color modes are available:

Full color

This mode prints four-color text and graphics.

Black & White

This mode prints with black toner only, making all color settings unavailable.

Printer Profile

Printer profile lets you optimize the color rendering of photos and graphics.

This feature is available when Full color is selected as the Color mode.

In Imaging > Printer profile, the following printer profiles are available.

Printer settings
