RGB Pure Black Process

This setting enables you to specify how black and gray data with the equivalent
ratio of R to G to B should be processed when device dependent RGB data is
converted into device dependent CMYK data using the 'RGB Source Profile' of
the machine.
If [On] is selected, black and gray data with the equivalent ratio of R to G to B is
printed using the black (K) toner only, regardless of the selected 'Output Profile'
setting.
If [Off] is selected, black and gray data with the equivalent ratio of R to G to B is
printed using CMYK toners based on the selected 'Output Profile' setting.
IMPORTANT
If you can see gradations or jagged lines in the printouts of black or gray data,
select [Off] in RGB Pure Black Process and select [Normal] for 'Output Profile'.
NOTE
In combination with certain settings, black and gray data with the equivalent ratio of
R to G to B may be printed using the black (K) toner only, even if [Off] is selected.
The following are examples.
- When [On] is selected for 'Pure Black Text'
- When [None] is selected for 'RGB Source Profile'
- When [TR Normal] or [TR Photo] is selected for 'Output Profile'
- When 'Prioritize Printing of Lines and Text' in the printer driver is selected
If [None] is selected for 'RGB Source Profile', the RGB Pure Black Process setting
is not applied.

printed when the device dependent CMYK data is processed using the 'CMYK
Simulation Profile' of the machine.
If [On] is selected, monochrome data (C=M=Y=0) is printed using the black (K)
toner only, regardless of the selected 'Output Profile' setting.
If [Off] is selected, monochrome data (C=M=Y=0) is printed using CMYK toners
based on the selected 'Output Profile' setting.
NOTE
In combination with certain settings, monochrome data (C=M=Y=0) may be printed
using the black (K) toner only, even if [Off] is selected. The following are examples.
