Trapping
In color printing, color 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.
Note:
Trapping is unavailable when
PCL 5c
is selected as the PDL.
