Priority of settingsIf a print setting is specified both from the printer driver and the operation panel of the machine, the specification from the printer driver overrides that from the operation panel. The specification from the operation panel becomes effective in some specific cases, such as when printing from UNIX or other operating system that does not support printer drivers. |

Produces a print with smooth gradation or smooth edges. It is suitable for printing figures or graphs containing gradation areas.
<Brightness> *1
Adjust the brightness of the entire image in increments of 5%. The lower the setting value is, the brighter the image or text becomes. The greater the setting value is, the darker the image or text becomes.

<sRGB>
Prints in black and white with emphasis on color differences so that a smooth gradation is achieved.
<NTSC>
Prints in black and white so that the resulting image looks like a black and white television picture (of the NTSC system).
<Uniform RGB>
Prints in black and white so that R, G, and B are uniformly converted to the same gray level by using only brightness as the reference.
<XPS>
You can change settings for XPS files.

<General>
Performs processing so that the color tone is suitable for printing general papers such as photos or documents.
<Perceptual>
Performs processing so that the color tone is suitable for printing bitmap images. When this item is selected, an image is printed in the colors closest to those displayed on the monitor.
<Colorimetric>
Minimizes a color variance that occurs when RGB data is converted to CMYK data.
<Vivid Photo>
Performs processing so that the color tone is deeper and more vivid than <General>.
<Halftones>
You can select the printing method used to reproduce halftones (the intermediate range between the lighter and darker areas of an image) for optimal image quality.
<Error Diffusion> This mode is suitable for printing data with text and thin lines and the curved lines of CAD data, etc.

Produces a fine print with clear edges of text. It is suitable for printing characters and fine lines.
<Gradation>
Produces a print with smooth gradation or smooth edges. It is suitable for printing figures or graphs containing gradation areas.
<Gray Compensation>
Configures a setting so that black or gray data of which color information is "R = G = B" is printed using only the K (black) toner. If <Off> is selected, data is printed using the toner of four colors: CMYK. This option can be specified for each image type in any one document.
