HP ImageREt 3600
ImageREt 3600 provides 3600 dots-per-inch (dpi) color laser-class quality through a multi-level printing
process. This process precisely controls color by combining up to four colors within a single dot and by
varying the amount of toner in a given area. ImageREt 3600 has been improved for this product. The
improvements offer trapping technologies, greater control over dot placement, and more precise control
of toner quality in a dot. These new technologies, coupled with HP's multi-level printing process, result
in a 600 x 600 dpi printer that provides 3600-dpi color laser-class quality with millions of smooth colors.
Media selection
For the best color and image quality, select the appropriate media type from the software printer menu
or from the printer driver.
Color options
Color options automatically provide optimal color output. These options use object tagging, which
provides optimal color and halftone settings for different objects (text, graphics, and photos) on a page.
The printer driver determines which objects appear on a page and uses halftone and color settings that
provide the best print quality for each object.
In the Windows environment, the Automatic and Manual color options are on the Color tab in the printer
driver.
Standard red-green-blue (sRGB)
Standard red-green-blue (sRGB) is a worldwide color standard that HP and Microsoft developed as a
common color language for monitors, input devices (scanners and digital cameras), and output devices
(printers and plotters). It is the default color space used for HP products, Microsoft operating systems,
the World Wide Web, and most office software. The sRGB standard represents the typical Windows
monitor and is the convergence standard for high-definition television.
NOTE: Factors such as the type of monitor you use and the room lighting can affect the appearance
of colors on your screen. For more information, see Match colors on page 88 .
