When you click another group box or leave the Advanced tab, invalid entries into the edit box (such as non-numerical input, numbers less than 1, or numbers greater than 9999) change to the last valid value that appeared in the box. The default number of copies is 1. Problems can develop when a software program and the driver it is running on both allow the user to set the number of copies to print. In most cases, the software program and the driver communicate, so that the number of copies set in one location (such as the program) appears in the other (such as the driver). For some software programs, this communication does not take place, and the copies values are treated independently. For example, setting 10 copies in the program and then setting 10 copies in the driver might result in the printer making 100 copies (10 x 10). Set the number of copies in the software program, whenever possible. Graphic settings The Graphic settings contain the following controls. ● Image Color Management settings (HP PCL 6 Unidriver and PS Emulation Unidriver only) ● TrueType Font settings Image Color Management settings (HP PCL 6 Unidriver and PS Emulation Unidriver only) Image Color Management (ICM) options are used for printing color graphics. The ICM options make it possible for programs to adjust colors before printing so that the color of images on the screen more closely matches the color of printed images. The following options are available: ● ICM Method. The ICM Method setting specifies how to print color graphics. The default setting for ICM Method is ICM Disabled. Additional options on the ICM Method drop-down menu include: ● ICM Handled by Host System. Click this option to perform calculations for color matching on the host computer before sending the document to the printer. ● ICM Handled by Printer. Click this option to perform calculations for color matching on the printer. A set of rules for mapping the colors is created and downloaded to the printer (which must be PostScript language level 2 or higher). The printer uses these rules to adjust colors in the document. ● ICM Intent. The ICM Intent setting specifies how color images are created to produce the bestlooking image on the printed page. ● If printing a chart or using fully saturated, bright colors, click Graphics to achieve the best quality. ● For photographs or pictures where the colors blend together, click Pictures to maximize the contrast. ● If the document uses a color that you need to match exactly, and you are sending the document to a printer that has that specific color of ink, click Proof. ● To preview the color settings from another printer, click Match.
