Advance color use The HP Color LaserJet CP1210 Series printer provides automatic color features that generate excellent color results. Carefully designed and tested color tables provide smooth, accurate color rendition of all printable colors. The HP Color LaserJet CP1210 Series also provides sophisticated tools for the experienced professional. HP ImageREt 2400 ImageREt 2400 provides 2400 dots-per-inch (dpi) color laser-class quality through a multi-level printing process. This process precisely controls color by combining up to four colors within a single dot and by varying the amount of toner in a given area. ImageREt 2400 has been improved for the HP Color LaserJet CP1210 Series printer to offer trapping technologies, greater control over dot placement, and more precise control of toner quality in a dot. These new technologies, coupled with HP's multi-level printing process, result in a 600 x 600 dpi printer that provides 2400-dpi color laser-class quality with millions of smooth colors. In contrast, the single-level printing process, called dithering, does not allow the colors to be mixed within a single dot and is the default mode for many color laser printers. Dithering significantly hinders the ability to create a wide range of colors without reduced sharpness or visible dot structure. Media selection For the best color and image quality, select the appropriate media type from the software printer menu or from the printer driver. Color options Color options use object tagging, which provides optimal color and halftone settings for different objects (text, graphics, and photos) on a page. The printer driver determines which objects appear on a page and uses halftone and color settings that provide the best print quality for each object. In the Windows environment, the Automatic and Manual color options are on the Color tab in the printer driver. Standard red-green-blue (sRGB) Standard red-green-blue (sRGB) is a worldwide color standard that HP and Microsoft® developed as a common color language for monitors, input devices (scanners and digital cameras), and output devices (printers and plotters). It is the default color space used for HP products, Microsoft operating systems, the World Wide Web, and most office software. The sRGB standard represents the typical Windows monitor and is the convergence standard for high-definition television. NOTE: Factors such as the type of monitor you use and the room lighting can affect the appearance of colors on your screen. The latest versions of Adobe® Photoshop®, Microsoft Office, and many other programs use sRGB to communicate color. The sRGB standard improves your ability to match colors between the printer, the computer monitor, and other input devices automatically, and eliminates the need to become a color expert. 8 Chapter 1 Purpose and scope ENWW
