Option settings When you choose the Options button of the Setup dialog box, the following dialog box appears: Gray Scale Specifies what halftone pattern to apply to grayscale images. The options are Photographic Images (default), Line Art Images, and Scanned Images. Each option is described below. The best way to choose a setting for your images is to experiment. Print a grayscale image at each setting and choose the one you like best. Choose Photographic Images for images that you want to have a smooth, realistic appearance. This setting provides soft contrasts between shades of gray and works well for images originally designed with color. When Photographic Images is selected, the printer uses an 8 bit-by-8 bit "clustered dot" method to emulate 64 levels of gray. Changing the Printer Settings 2-9
