Gray Scale

Gray Scale refers to a type of pattern that is applied to printed images. By using combinations of black dots, these patterns produce a gray appearance on the printed page. The best way to choose a Halftoning setting for your graphic image is to experiment. Print a graphic image at each setting and choose the one you like best.

The Windows 95/98 driver provides the following options:

•Photographic Images (the default setting)

Use this setting for printed images that you want to have a smooth, realistic and photographic appearance. It provides soft contrasts between various shades of gray (and also works well for images originally designed with color).

•Line Art Images

Choose this setting for graphic images with intricate lines and fine detail, like clip art graphics. It provides solid lines and sharp contrasts between shaded areas.

•Scanned Images

Choose this setting if your graphic images were originally scanned in through a scanner. It is specially tuned to provide exceptional quality and clarity to printed images originally scanned with a scanner.

The Windows NT 4.0 driver provides halftone control options supported by the Windows NT 4.0 operating system. For details, refer to the driver’s Halftone Color Adjustment tab.
