Controlling the Overall appearance of a Print Printing Color Images in Monochrome Printing Color Images in Monochrome NOTE There are times when you may want to print a color image in monochrome (grayscales only). Examples of this are: s You want a draft where color is not important, for example to check that the image is not going to be clipped, s You want a version for photocopying in black and white. Remember the following important points: s Monochrome printing renders colors as grayscales rather than all colors as black. If you want all colors to be printed as black, then you should set all your colors to black in your software. For example, if supported in your software, use a pen number that is 100% black. Alternatively, you could make one of the printer's internal palettes (A or B) all black, and then select this as the current palette (see page 6-3 in this chapter for an explanation of palettes). NOTE: The Palette Settings do not affect PostScript files. s You cannot change the color/monochrome setting for pages already in the printer's queue. Printing a color image in grayscale may affect print quality. For best results, select grayscale in your application software and, in the printer driver and front panel, select color. This usually provides the best quality image. 6-10
