_______________________________________ Configuration 6-35
Note: See “Printer Memory Requirements” in chapter 9 about the
RAM required to print at higher resolutions.
Set available resolutions using either the MISC:DPI configuration
menu or the Print dialog box’s Resolution menu.
If the resolution upgrade is installed and adequate RAM is available,
but the upgrade cannot be selected in your application Print dialog
box (it is grayed out), RAM may not be configured properly in the
PPD. See the section on configuring the PPD for your operating
system in chapter 3 (Macintosh) or 4 (PC).
Smooth Shading
Smooth Shading allows you to use the Adobe PostScript 3 method of
rendering gradient blends. Smooth Shading produces the highest
quality image at the selected resolution. For some images, PostScript
files created with Smooth Shading are smaller and print faster than
those created using PostScript Level 2.
Set Smooth Shading from your application Print dialog box. Off, the
factory default, disables this feature. Options of Maximum, High,
Medium, Low are available.
Soft Error
Soft Error alerts you that the printer requires attention. Examples are
low toner and low paper messages.
Set Soft Error using the front panel MISC:SOFTERROR
configuration menu. Yes, the factory default, enables this feature; No
disables it.
Note: While soft error messages are very helpful, occasionally
some software misinterprets the messages. If you run into
problems with a particular software, try disabling this
feature.
