Trapping Fonts Imaging Selecting Print Quality In the Imaging tab, select a Print quality from the list. The number of selections in Print quality depends on the number of resolutions supported by the printing system. High quality Select this setting to print at the highest printing system resolution. Custom Custom lets you choose a setting for EcoPrint. Selecting Custom without EcoPrint results in a default setting to the highest printing system resolution. In color printing, color inks or toners are applied separately to a page. A color image has its component colors applied in color separations of cyan, magenta, yellow and black. These color separations must be aligned (registered) precisely to produce a quality full color image. During printing, the paper or media type may shift slightly. While the shift might be very small, the gaps between the colors in the image can be noticeable. Color trapping corrects it by overlapping colors slightly so that minor alignment issues are corrected. To use trapping in a document, select a value for the print overlap pixel width: Light, 0.5 pixel trapping; Medium, 1 pixel trapping; Heavy, 1.5 pixels trapping; Very Heavy, 2 pixels trapping. If trapping does not correct the misalignment issue, contact your local Kyocera service dealer. Note: Trapping is not available when the PDL is set to PCL 5c or PDF. 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. TrueType fonts are a type of scalable outline fonts. TrueType has long been the most common format for fonts on Microsoft Windows. System fonts are the primary fonts used by the operating system. They are typically accessed through an application interface or through a common font dialog box. Device fonts are stored either permanently or temporarily in the printing system memory.
