SOLID INTERMEDIATE COLOR (SUCH AS TURQUOISE) IMAGE DOTS PRINTED WITH PATTERN HALFTONE Pattern 1 uses a four-dot pattern and Pattern 2 uses an eight-dot pattern, which creates more white space. Diffusion This setting randomly places individual dots to create shades of gray. By randomly placing dots, the printer can achieve subtle gradations. This method is best suited for printing documents that contain finely detailed graphics or photographic images. Using diffusion slows the application release time because a larger, more complex page is generated by the software. This type of page requires more time to calculate as well as send to the printer. However, what you lose in print speed may be gained in quality. The diffusion setting may eliminate banding problems when printing grays on all black images. SOLID INTERMEDIATE COLOR (SUCH AS TURQUOISE) IMAGE DOTS PRINTED WITH DIFFUSION HALFTONE Intensity You can use this option to adjust the Intensity of the printed image. Click on the arrows to make the image darker or brighter, or you can drag the slider box right or left along the bar.

Pattern 1 uses a four-dot pattern and Pattern 2 uses an eight-dot pattern,

Diffusion
This setting randomly places individual dots to create shades of gray. By
randomly placing dots, the printer can achieve subtle gradations. This
method is best suited for printing documents that contain finely detailed
graphics or photographic images.
Using diffusion slows the application release time because a larger, more
complex page is generated by the software. This type of page requires more
time to calculate as well as send to the printer. However, what you lose in
print speed may be gained in quality.
The diffusion setting may eliminate banding problems when printing grays
on all black images.

Intensity
of the printed image. Click
on the arrows to make the image darker or brighter, or you can drag the
