HP L 5 manual Halftone Render Algorithms, ?*t#J

Halftone Render Algorithms

The HP color printers have the capability of applying different halftone render algorithms to achieve the desired output on the printed image. Render algorithms allow you to change the characteristics of the image by changing the way pixels are rendered. Each halftone render algorithm produces a different affect on the output, varying the texture and color appearance of the printed image.

To choose the type of rendering to be used, use the Render Algorithm command, described below. This command allows you to choose one of the existing rendering algorithms or to choose a user-defined pattern created with the Download Dither Matrix command.

Render Algorithm Command

The Render Algorithm command selects the algorithm to be used for rendering page marking entities on a given page.
