Edge Control
Edge Control determines how edges are rendered. Edge Control consists of Adaptive Halftoning and
Trapping. Adaptive Halftoning increases the edge sharpness. Trapping reduces the effect of color-plane
misregistration by slightly overlapping the edges of adjacent objects.
The Edge Control option contains the following settings:
●
Off. The Off setting turns off Trapping and Adaptive Halftoning.
●
Light. The Light setting provides minimal trapping. Adaptive Halftoning is set to On .
●
Normal. The Normal setting provides the default trapping settings. Adaptive Halftoning is set to
On.
●
Maximum. The Maximum setting provides the most trapping. Adaptive Halftoning is set to On.
RGB Color
The RGB Color settings affect the color treatment for object types and determines how colors are
rendered. The following options are available.
●
Default (sRGB). This option interprets RGB color space (sRGB), which is the accepted standard
for many software companies and organizations such as Microsoft and the World Wide Web
Consortium. Default (sRGB) is the default setting for all components.
●
Vivid. This option uses the full range of the MFP's capabilities, producing colors that are more
deeply saturated than those on your screen. If you use Vivid color, blues and greens will likely
appear darker in print than on your monitor. Vivid color is useful for business graphics and other
documents that require deep, rich colors.
●
Device. This option sets the MFP to print RGB data in raw device mode. To render photographs
correctly when this option is selected, you must manage color in the software program in which
you are working or in the operating system.
●
AdobeRGB (1998).Select AdobeRGB (1998) for documents that use the Adobe RGB color space
rather than sRGB. For example, some digital cameras capture images in Adobe RBG, and
documents that are produced with Adobe Photoshop® use the Adobe RGB color space. When
printing from a professional software program that uses Adobe RGB , turn off the color management
in the software program and allow the MFP software to manage the color space.
●
Photo/Image. Photo/Image interprets the RGB color as if it was printed as a photograph in a digital
mini-lab, rendering the deeper, more saturated colors differently than Default mode. Use this
setting for printing photos. For best results, use HP Glossy Laser Paper with this setting.
NOTE If your software program converts text and graphics to raster, the Photographs settings
also control the Text and Graphics settings.
