Imaging Options

You can adjust the saturation, brightness, and color tone of printed
images by moving the slider bar on the Imaging

Imaging

Imaging

Imaging tab. The saturation

controls the relative purity of printed colors. The brightness darkens or
lightens the printed image. The color tone controls the perceived warmth
and coolness of printed colors.

Grayscale

Grayscale tones print images using only
shades of gray.

Sepia Tone

Sepia tones give your images an antique look
by printing them using only brown and white.

Optimized for Fax

Optimized for Fax prints your images using
high-contrast shades of gray making your
printed document ideal for faxing.

Image Enhancement

Select Image Enhancement if you want your
images enhanced by image processing
algorithms that increase the contrast and
sharpen the image.

Preferences

The Preferences tab lets you set whether or not a document prints
immediately, a print preview is displayed, or a print confirmation is
displayed. It also lets you change what happens when the media width
sensor detects that the page is not wide enough.

Note: The Preference tab also lets you change the amount of time a page is left to
dry before the next page prints. Each paper type has a default dry time.

Ink Volume is a slider that increases or decreases the amount of ink
used, which affects the way colors appear on the page.

Printing from DOS Software Programs

When printing from DOS, you can adjust print settings in two ways: in the
HP DeskJet Control Panel for DOS and from within your DOS
application’s printer driver.

HP DeskJet Control Panel for DOS

You have access to many printer features through application specific
DOS printer drivers; however, some software manufacturers do not
develop printer drivers for their DOS applications. Use the DeskJet
Control Panel to specify the default printer settings for printing from
DOS applications.
