WITH PATTERN

HALFTONE

Pattern 1 uses a four-dot pattern and Pattern 2 uses an eight-dot pattern, which creates more white space.

Diffusion

This setting randomly places individual dots to create shades of gray. By randomly placing dots, the printer can achieve subtle gradations. This method is best suited for printing documents that contain finely detailed graphics or photographic images.

Using diffusion slows the application release time because a larger, more complex page is generated by the software. This type of page requires more time to calculate as well as send to the printer. However, what you lose in print speed may be gained in quality.

The diffusion setting may eliminate banding problems when printing grays on all black images.
