Imaging Trapping Custom Click Custom to open a Custom Quality Settings dialog box. Depending on your printer, resolution can be set to 1200 dpi or 600 dpi. Kyocera Image Refinement refines the edges of text and vector graphics, and can be set to On or Off. For all of these selections, you can also select EcoPrint. With EcoPrint on, some models let you select the amount of ink to save. In color printing, color ink is 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. Trapping is unavailable when PCL 5c is selected as the PDL. Setting Trapping values 1 In Imaging > Trapping, select a value for the print overlap pixel width: • Light, 0.5-pixel trapping • Medium, 1.0-pixel trapping • Heavy, 1.5-pixel trapping • Very heavy, 2.0-pixel trapping 2 Click OK. Font Settings 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: Outline fonts In contrast to bitmap fonts, these 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. Bitmap fonts These 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. 9-2 User Guide

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