The Neutral Grays setting determines the method used for creating gray colors used in text,
graphics, and photographs.
For the HP Color LaserJet 3700 series printer, the following options are available for the
Neutral Grays setting:
●
Black Only generates neutral colors (grays and black) using only black toner. This
guarantees neutral colors without a color cast.
●
4-Color generates neutral colors (grays and black) by combining all four toner colors.
This method produces smoother gradients and transitions to non-neutral colors, and it
produces the darkest black.
The Edge Control (for the HP Color LaserJet 3500 series printer) setting determines how
edges are rendered. Edge control has two components: adaptive halftoning and trapping.
Adaptive halftoning increases edge sharpness. Trapping reduces the effect of color plane
misregistration by overlapping the edges of adjacent objects slightly.
For the HP Color LaserJet 3700 series printer, the following levels of edge control are
available:
●
Maximum is the most aggressive trapping setting. Adaptive halftoning is on for this
setting.
●
Normal is the default trapping setting. Trapping is at a medium level and adaptive
halftoning is on.
●
Light sets trapping at a minimal level, and adaptive halftoning is on.
●
Off turns off both trapping and adaptive halftoning.
For the HP Color LaserJet 3500 series printer, the following levels are available:
●
Maximum is the most aggressive trapping setting.
●
Normal sets the trapping at a medium level.
●
Light sets trapping at a minimal level.
●
Off is the default trapping setting. Trapping is turned off.
For the HP Color LaserJet 3700 series printer, the following values are available for the RGB
Color settings:
●
Default instructs the printer to interpret RGB color as sRGB. The sRGB standard is the
accepted standard of Microsoft and the World Wide Web Consortium
●
Vivid instructs the printer to increase the color saturation in the midtones. Less colorful
objects are rendered more colorfully. This value is recommended for printing business
graphics.
●
Device instructs the printer to print RGB data in raw device mode. To render
photographs properly with this selection, you must manage image color in the application
or operating system.
