PCL 5

Note: For PCL jobs, DocuPrint NPS supports 300 and 600 dpi printing only.

To obtain the best image quality on the DocuPrint NPS, choose the correct printer setup attributes when generating a document on your personal computer.

Refer to the “Appearance Consistency” section in the “PostScript” chapter for more information on resolution.

The following table shows the recommended printer settings in order of preference:

The recommended choice is listed in the 300 dpi vector graphics settings column. The print quality of an object that is created in HP-GL/2 mode is very consistent. Because the image is not a bitmap, the data is not skewed.

The second choice is listed in the 600 dpi vector graphics settings column. Because you are using an image that is not a bitmap, the data will not be skewed and the differences would be difficult to detect.

The last choice is listed in the 300 dpi raster graphics settings column. The print quality deteriorates if the image is a rasterized bitmap, which leaves some white space where the bits are not formulated.

Keep the following points in mind when preparing your images and

 

setting print attributes:

 

Page protection, orientation, and memory are not values that affect the image quality.

Setting the graphics quality to HIGH allows for the best possible output.

Setting print quality to printer default allows the printer to determine the best match for the job.

The DocuPrint 92C NPS can produce a single-pixel line. However, because of the many variables involved, such as print
