Customizing Color Output Through Printer
Drivers
The printer driver, which is installed with your printer software,
enables your software applications to use the features of the printer. It
also gives you customized control of color text, graphics, and photos.
The method of accessing your printer driver depends on your
computer’s operating system. For specific instructions on accessing
printer drivers, see the printer driver’s Readme file, which is included
on the printing system CD-ROM.
The following color control features are available only through your
HP printer driver. See the printer driver’s online Help for details on
color settings and their effect on printed output.
Halftone Options
Halftone options affect the resolution and clarity of your color output.
You can select halftone settings for text, graphics, and photos
independently. The two halftone options are Smooth and Details.
The Smooth option provides better results for large, solid-filled print
areas. It also enhances photos by smoothing out fine color
gradations.
The Detail option is useful for text and graphics that require sharp
distinctions among lines or colors, such as images that contain a
pattern or a high level of detail.
