When small black text or fine black lines are being printed, the printer checks to see if they are being printed on top of a colored background. If so, rather than remove the color from beneath the black content, the printer leaves the color around the edge of the text or line. The hole in the colored region is reduced in size, which prevents the characteristic white gap that is caused by incorrect registration. Values include Off and numbers 1-5 (the default is 2). Values 1 through 5 indicate the amount of color remaining beneath the black content. Each setting increments by 1/600 of an inch. The more inaccurate the registration setting, the higher the setting needs to be adjusted. Selecting Off disables color trapping. 3-24 Service Manual

Prt Quality Pgs
The Print Quality Pages can be printed from both the Configuration Menu and the Diagnostics Menu. The
Configuration Menu is limited in information compared to the pages printed from the Diagnostics Menu.
To help isolate print quality problems, print the Print Quality Test Pages. The pages are formatted. The

Color Trapping
Uses an algorithm to compensate for mechanical incorrect registration in the printer. When small black text or
fine black lines are being printed, the printer checks to see if they are being printed on top of a colored
background. If so, rather than remove the color from beneath the black content, the printer leaves the color
around the edge of the text or line. The hole in the colored region is reduced in size, which prevents the
characteristic white gap that is caused by incorrect registration.
Values include Off and numbers 1–5 (the default is 2). Values 1 through 5 indicate the amount of color
remaining beneath the black content. Each setting increments by 1/600 of an inch. The more inaccurate the
registration setting, the higher the setting needs to be adjusted. Selecting
Off
disables color trapping.
