Getting the best results
There are many variables in process reproduction of colors generated by the
Phaser 340, any one of which may affect the quality of the PANTONE Color
simulation, including:
■ Quality of paper and transparency film
■ Selected resolution
■ Dot structure/halftones
For optimal results, always use the recommended Tektronix supplies. Refer
to Chapter 5 for ordering information.
Relative port speed
Ethernet and Token Ring are the fastest ports, followed by the parallel port,
the LocalTalk port, then the serial port.
