HP LaserJet 9050 - Software Technical Reference (External)

is not selected (clear) by default. If you select this option, the driver sends TrueType fonts to the
printer as outlines, which retains the standard format (outlines) of the fonts.
Output Settings
The Output Settings group box contains controls for resolution, pattern scaling, and to print all text
as black.
The default values for the Output Settings are as follows:
■ Resolution: 600 dpi
■ Scale Patterns (WYSIWYG) is selected
■ Print all Text as Black is not selected
■ Edge-to-Edge Printing
Resolution:
Resolution refers to the number of dots per inch (dpi) used to print the page. As resolution is
increased, the quality (clarity and visual appeal) of print on the page is improved. However, higher
resolution may also result in longer printing times.
Scale Patterns (WYSIWYG)
Use the Scale Patterns (WYSIWYG) feature to address the moiré effect that is created when certain
programs encounter certain patterns. Use this feature to turn off the pattern scaling. What you lose is
WYSIWYG with patterns, but the printed result might look better. The feature works only with
programs that use vector hatch patterns. This option is selected by default.
Print all Text as Black
The Print All Text as Black feature is not selected by default. When the feature is selected, the
driver prints all text as black regardless of the original document text color. Color text is printed as
black, except for white text, which remains white. (White text is a reliable method of printing reverse
typeface against a dark background.) This setting does not affect graphic images on the page, nor
does it affect any text that is part of a graphic.
Edge-to-Edge Printing
Edge to Edge expands the print area to allow printing within 1 mm of the edge of the page. You must
select this option for each print job desired. Due to the physical limitations of the tray, the text or
graphics will be clipped approximately 1 - 2 mm from the physical edge to the paper.
