SuperScript 870 — Network User’s Guide
Imaging Modes
This setting controls the printing of text and graphics. You
can select an imaging method from the menu, or allow
SuperScript 870 to select the best method automatically.
To manually control the imaging mode, choose one of the
following menu options:
Auto Select Best Mode:
Allows SuperScript 870 to
select the imaging method automatically. This option
works well for most print jobs.
Optimize for Word Processing:
Ensures the fastest
printing for documents that contain mostly text.
Image Entire Page as Graphic:
Ensures the best
possible match between what you see on the screen and
what is printed. When this option is selected, the entire
page, including fonts, is sent as a single graphic image
to the printer.
Halftone Settings
This setting allows you to fine tune the way SuperScript 870
converts grayscale or color images into black-and-white dot
patterns (halftones).
Fine:
Provides smoother grays and fills.
Standard (Faster Output):
Results in coarser grays but
faster printing.
Photocopy Reduction:
Produces images using a
different dot pattern that is optimized for reproduction
on photocopy machines.
