Edge Control

The Edge Control setting determines how edges are rendered. Edge control has two components: adaptive halftoning and
trapping. Adaptive halftoning increases edge sharpness. Trapping reduces the effect of color-plane misregistration by
overlapping the edges of adjacent objects slightly.

Four levels of edge control are available:

Maximum is the most aggressive trapping setting. Adaptive halftoning is on for this setting.

Normal is the default trapping setting. Trapping is at a medium level and adaptive halftoning is on.

Light sets trapping at a minimal level, and adaptive halftoning is on.

Off turns off both trapping and adaptive halftoning.

RGB Color

Three values are available for the RGB Color setting:

Default instructs the printer to interpret RGB color as sRGB. sRGB is the accepted standard for Microsoft and the
World Wide Web Consortium (www).

Device instructs the printer to print RGB data in raw device mode. To render photographs properly with this
selection, you must manage image color in the application or operating system.

Vivid instructs the printer to increase the color saturation in the midtones. Less colorful objects are rendered more
colorfully. This value is recommended for printing business graphics.
