Using Image Smoothing

Image Smoothing blends adjacent colors in low-resolution images for smoother color transitions. For example, use Image Smoothing to improve the appearance of a 72-dpi image downloaded from the World Wide Web. Image Smoothing is not recommended for 300-dpi or higher images.

There are four ways of selecting Image Smoothing (driver selections override all other settings):

■Through the printer’s front panel in the Printer Defaults menu.

■In a supported printer driver; check the Image Smoothing box on.

■Through PhaserLink Printer Management software under Configure Printer Defaults.

■Through one of the following PostScript utility files (see “Using Printer Utilities” on page 135):

Macintosh

■Image Smoothing On

■Image Smoothing Off

PC

■SMOOTHON.PS

■SMOOTHOFF.PS

Automatic tray switching

When your printer has a Lower Tray Assembly, you can easily run large jobs without having to replace media often.

1.For automatic tray switching to work properly, load the same type and size media in all of the printer’s media trays. The media trays must also be of the same type (e.g., PAPER). You can also use the Multi-Purpose Tray for automatic tray switching; fill it with the same media type as the paper trays.

2.Install a tray in each of the printer’s tray slots. If you have the Duplex Unit installed in the printer’s upper slot, install the media trays in the middle and lower tray slots.
