REt, Send TrueType as Bitmaps, Graphics Mode for PCL 5e

Page 95 highlights

Note This setting is not synchronized with the program's print dialog. REt Resolution Enhancement technology is a simple on/off setting rather than light/medium/dark/off. The On setting corresponds to the "medium" setting found in older HP printers. Send TrueType as Bitmaps Send TrueType as Bitmaps is the only setting available and provides the user a safety net for those programs that have trouble dealing with TrueType fonts for special graphic purposes such as shading, rotation, or slanting. The feature is not available when the Send Page as Raster option is selected. The check box is clear (off) by default. Using this feature, TrueType fonts are first converted to bitmap softfonts prior to downloading. The On setting causes the driver to send TrueType fonts to the printer as outlines, which retains the standard format (Outline) of the fonts. Graphics Mode for PCL 5e There are two settings under Graphics Mode (on the PCL 5e driver only) that control the way in which the driver expresses vector graphics on a page: • Select Send Graphics as Vector to send graphics to the printer as a combination of HP-GL2 and raster images. This setting may produce higher quality graphics output. • Select Send Graphics as Raster to send all graphics to the printer as images composed of individual dots. This setting may improve printing speed in some cases. Software Technical Reference Driver features 93

Resolution Enhancement technology is a simple on/off setting rather than light/medium/dark/off. The On setting
corresponds to the "medium" setting found in older HP printers.
Send TrueType as Bitmaps
Send TrueType as Bitmaps is the only setting available and provides the user a safety net for those programs that
have trouble dealing with TrueType fonts for special graphic purposes such as shading, rotation, or slanting. The
feature is not available when the Send Page as Raster option is selected. The check box is clear (off) by default. Using
this feature, TrueType fonts are first converted to bitmap softfonts prior to downloading. The On setting causes the
driver to send TrueType fonts to the printer as outlines, which retains the standard format (Outline) of the fonts.
Graphics Mode for PCL 5e
There are two settings under Graphics Mode (on the PCL 5e driver only) that control the way in which the driver
expresses vector graphics on a page:
Select Send Graphics as Vector to send graphics to the printer as a combination of HP-GL2 and raster images.
This setting may produce higher quality graphics output.
Select Send Graphics as Raster to send all graphics to the printer as images composed of individual dots. This
setting may improve printing speed in some cases.
