Send PostScript Error Handler, Printer Features, Print All Text as Black

Page 174 highlights

It is usually best to select the highest number available, because a higher language level provides more features. In some instances level 1 should be used, such as when printing a file to disk, and that file will be printed by someone who uses a level-1 product. Send PostScript Error Handler The Send PostScript Error Handler setting specifies whether a PS error-handler message is sent. To get the product to print an error page when an error occurs in the print job, click Yes. The default setting is Yes. Printer Features The following Printer Features are available: ● Print All Text as Black ● Send TrueType as Bitmap (PCL 6 only) ● Raster Compression (PCL 6 only) ● Print Data Optimization (PCL 6 only) ● HP EasyColor ● Alternative Letterhead Mode (PCL 6 only) Print All Text as Black The Print All Text as Black feature is Disabled by default. When Enabled is selected, the driver prints all text as black regardless of the original document text color. Color text is printed as black, except for white text, which remains white. (White text is a reliable method of printing reverse typeface against a dark background.) This setting does not affect graphic images on the page, nor does it affect any text that is part of a graphic. Print All Text as Black remains enabled only for the current print job. When the current print job is completed, Print All Text as Black is automatically disabled. Send TrueType as Bitmap (PCL 6 only) Send TrueType as Bitmap provides an alternative for those software programs that encounter problems when TrueType fonts are used for special graphic purposes such as shading, rotation, or slanting. The setting is Disabled (off) by default. The TrueType fonts are first converted to bitmap soft fonts before downloading. The Enabled setting causes the driver to send TrueType fonts to the product as outlines, which retains the standard format (outline) of the fonts. Raster Compression (PCL 6 only) Use the Raster Compression feature to select the graphics compression method: ● Automatic. The software determines the best compression method to use. ● Best Quality. Forces the software to use a lossless compression method. (Lossless means that no data is lost during compression.) ● Maximum Compression. Where applicable, requires the software to always use a lossy compression method (some data is lost). Choosing this option increases the print speed performance, but does decrease print image quality. 154 Chapter 4 HP PCL 6 print driver and HP UPD PS for Windows ENWW
