BERTL’s test pattern for printing
resolution consists of a series of
horizontal and vertical lines positioned
with less and less spacing in between,
demanding higher optical printing
resolution to be able to distinguish them.
The line pairs per inch are printed in
CMYcolors. Most printers support a
certain optical resolution; however when
the bleeding or half toning between lines
gets increasingly smaller, the effective
resolution becomes something less than
the optical resolution.
We ran the test in Ocè’s three standard
quality print modes: Fine Art, Quality, and
Production.
Our test with the Océ Arizona 350 GT
printer revealed that 112 line pairs were
detectable in both Quality and Fine Art
mode and 74 line pairs in Production
mode.
We therefore conclude that for quality
prints, the Quality mode is sufficient and
can be used instead of Fine Art mode to
speed up production.
Overall the result is good and meets our
expectations.
