ColorMark CMS

◆Media — for accurate color matching and/or linearization, specify the media type loaded in the printer. If a print job specifies a different media, the job is routed to the Output Attention queue with a disposition of Media Mismatch.

◆Width — width of the media, as measured by the printer.

◆Ink Type — type of ink installed, as detected by the printer.

Dithering

◆Dither Mode — Threshold Dithering is an efficient screen- ing method that produces good results. Select Error Diffu- sion screening for the smoothest appearance, but is more resource-intensive on the server, and may cause the print- head to pause when printing large files in the fastest print mode.

Ink Level

◆Pause On Low Ink — when enabled, and the amount of ink for a given color reaches the level you set in the Ink Warn- ing Level field, the printer pauses between pages so that you can replace the ink supply. A warning will be given and the printer will pause after every page until the ink is replen- ished. If Pause on Low Ink is disabled, the printer does not pause and the low ink warning does not appear. This could result in one or more colors running out in the middle of a print.

◆Ink Warning Level — defines the Low Ink Warning level, as a percentage of ink remaining.

Lighter Prints—Darker Prints

To adjust the ink saturation for all prints sent to this printer, move the slider control or enter a number within the valid range in the text entry box. You can use this control to reduce the amount of ink used, to reduce cost, or improve drying when printing in faster print modes.
