Kyocera image refinement smoothes the edges of text and vector graphics and can be set to On, or Off. Selecting EcoPrint EcoPrint changes toner saturation in the printed job, making the entire print image, including text and graphics, appear lighter.

A computer font is a data file containing a set of glyphs (visual representations of textual elements), characters, or symbols. Common terms for fonts are: Bitmap fonts define each character as a pattern of pixels (the smallest resolvable rectangular areas of an image). Such fonts are not easily scalable and distort when reduced or enlarged. Outline fonts, in contrast to bitmap fonts, are defined as a set of mathematical lines and curves. An outline font is more easily scalable (designed to display and print clearly at any point size) than a bitmap font. Native fonts are the basic or original fonts installed with the computer operating system. TrueType fonts are the native fonts used by Microsoft Windows. User Guide

resolvable rectangular areas of an image). Such fonts are not easily scalable

and distort when reduced or enlarged.

mathematical lines and curves. An outline font is more easily scalable

(designed to display and print clearly at any point size) than a bitmap font.
