Print Darkness
The Xerox DocuPrint 180 LPS provides you with capabilities for
tuning your output print quality to meet the particular needs of your
application. The Print Darkness window at the PC UI is a feature
which allows you to adjust darkness of printed characters and
images. Print darkness is a scale from 1 to 9, which either darkens
or lightens the image, as well as broadening or thinning the look of
various characters. The nominal setting is 5, which provides the
optimal mix of darkness and line thickness.
It is recommended that you test the Print Darkness feature to
determine the best setting for your site or application. For more
information on the Print Darkness window, re

DocuPrint 180 LPS Operator Guide or to the Xerox DocuPrint 180

Interpolation and scanned images
The Xerox DocuPrint 180 LPS accepts 300 spi data and prints it
using a 600 spi dual beam raster output scanner (ROS). To convert
300 spi input data to 600 spi print output, the system uses an
interpolation algorithm to smooth lines and improve the quality of 300
spi fonts and line art.
