6 Color This chapter describes how the printer provides great color printing. This chapter also describes ways to produce the best possible color prints.
Using color The HP Color LaserJet 3500 series printer and the HP Color LaserJet 3700 series printer offer great color printing as soon as you set up the printer. They provide a combi nation of auto matic color features to generate excellent color results for the general office user.
Note Factors such as the type of monitor you use and the room’s lighting can affect the appearance of colors on your screen. For more in formatio n, see Matching colors . The latest versions of Adobe Photo Shop ® , CorelDRAW, Microsoft Office, and many other applications use sRGB to com munic ate color.
Managing color Setting color options to Automatic will typically produce the best possible print quality for color docum ents. However, there may be cases when you want to print a color d ocum ent in grayscale (black and white) or wish to change one of the printer's color options.
For the HP Color LaserJet 3700 series printer, the following options are available for the Halftone setting: ● The Smooth option provides better results for large, solid-filled print areas. It also enhances photographs by s mooth ing out fine color gradations.
Matching colors The process of m atch ing printer output color to your computer screen is quite complex because printers and computer monitors use different methods of producing color.
7 Maintenance This chapter describes ways to m ainta in your printer. The following topics are covered: ● Managing supplies ● Replacing supplies and parts ● Cleaning the printer ● Configuring .
Managing supplies Using, storing, and monito ring print cartridges can help ensure quality printer output. Supplies life The life of the print cartridge depends on usage patterns and the a moun t of toner that print jobs require.
