About Color Printing This section describes the fundamentals of colors and the method for color printing from this printer. The Three Primary Colors of Light and Color The colors that you see in the computer display are expressed from the three primary colors of light which are red, green, and blue. White will result if all the three primary colors are mixed (additive process).
Method for Expressing Color Paint is mixed on a pallet to create various colors. This cannot be done inside a printer or on a display, therefore, color is expressed with a group of color dots. Pallet Display On the display, various colors are expressed by the red, green, and blue dots. Color bar The colors of toner cannot be saturated by the printer. Therefore, a larger amount of dots are used in the printer, and colors are expressed in various combinations by adding black to cyan, yellow, and magenta.
Mechanism of Color Printing In color printing, the shape and color of images are expressed in groups of minute cyan, magenta, yellow, and black dots. Therefore, image data input in the printer are dissolved into cyan, magenta, yellow, and black. Y M C K The data is developed in each cartridge, and toner is transferred onto paper repeatedly.
To Achieve More Beautiful Results in Smoother Operations When printing color images, the capacity of the printer will drop considerably if the desired color cannot be obtained, or if the image quality deteriorates, or if it takes a long time to print data. A printer can be used to its full extend with small adjustments or concerns. ■ Adjusting the color on the display Colors shown on the display are not always the actual colors.
■ Adjusting the resolution Image quality higher than the printer resolution cannot be obtained no matter how high you specified the resolution for the data. 600 dpi is sufficient for most print size. If the resolution of data is too high, not only will it take a long time to print, but the data size will increase as well. On the other hand, a sufficient image quality cannot be obtained if the resolution is too low.
