INTRODUCTION
If your applications do not support HP RTL, there are several software
utilities available to convert various raster file formats (TIFF, GIF,
BMP, etc.) into HP RTL. There are also many Raster Image Processors
(RIPs) which convert Postscript or CGM to HP RTL. When choosing a
RIP or a file format converter for output to the printer, make sure it has
the features you need. (Contact your ENCAD distributor or dealer for
an up-to-date listing.)
Obtaining quality results
You have probably seen a demonstration of your printer's capabilities
or sample output. If so, you are aware of the superb color graphics
which can be obtained, and the variety of papers and films you can
use. Note, however, that to obtain high-quality results, you must
consider several factors. Follow the simple guidelines in the sections
that follow to obtain excellent results.
Use the right inks and media
ENCAD’s commitment to Extreme Color extends beyond inkjet
technology to encompass media, ink, and cartridges. A team of color
scientists and media specialists work with the world’s leading ink and
media manufacturers to develop supplies that are scientifically
matched to the printer. Used together, ENCAD QIS inks and media
provide the widest color gamut available, which makes our Quality
Image Supplies ideal for applications from proofs to presentations.
(See Appendix G for descriptions of media and ink offerings.)
ENCAD QIS inks and media give you:
•
Scientifically matched ink and media
•
Optimal image quality
•
Ultra-wide color gamut
•
Wide range of media: matte paper, photo paper, film, vinyl, canvas
etc.
High quality pen plotter paper gives good results for line drawings or
for light area fill. However, using this paper for heavier fills or picto-
rial images may result in ink saturation, bleeding, and dull colors. For
these applications, be sure to use ENCAD media.
