Use the HP EasyColor option
If you are using the HP PCL 6 print driver for Windows, the HP EasyColor technology automatically improves
mixed-content documents that are printed from Microsoft Office programs. This technology scans
documents and automatically adjusts photographic images in .JPEG or .PNG format. The HP EasyColor
technology enhances the entire image at one time, rather than dividing it into several pieces, which results in
improved color consistency, sharper details, and faster printing.
If you are using the HP Postscript print driver for Mac, the HP EasyColor technology scans all documents and
automatically adjusts all photographic images with the same improved photographic results.
In the following example, the images on the left were created without using the HP EasyColor option. The
images on the right show the enhancements that result from using the HP EasyColor option.
The HP EasyColor option is enabled by default in both the HP PCL 6 print driver and the HP Mac Postscript
print driver, so you do not need to make manual color adjustments. To disable the option so you can
manually adjust the color settings, open the Color tab in the Windows driver or the Color/Quality Options
tab in the Mac driver, and then click the HP EasyColor check box to clear it.

Default (sRGB): This theme sets the product to print RGB data in raw device mode. When using this
theme, manage color in the software program or in the operating system for correct rendering.
●
Vivid (sRGB): The product increases the color saturation in the midtones. Use this theme when
printing business graphics.
●
Photo (sRGB): The product interprets RGB color as if it were printed as a photograph using a digital
mini lab. The product renders deeper, more saturated colors differently than with the Default
(sRBG) theme. Use this theme when printing photos.
●
Photo (Adobe RGB 1998): Use this theme with printing digital photos that use the AdobeRGB color
space rather than sRGB. Turn off color management in the software program when using this
theme.

None: No color theme is used.

Manual color options
Use manual color options to adjust the Neutral Grays, Halftone, and Edge Control options for text, graphics,
and photographs.
Setting descriptionSetting options
Edge Control
The Edge Control setting determines the rendering of
edges. Edge control has two components: adaptive
halftoning and trapping. Adaptive halftoning increases
edge sharpness. Trapping reduces the effect of colorplane misregistration by overlapping the edges of
adjacent objects slightly.
Halftone
Halftone options affect color output clarity and
resolution.
Neutral Grays
The Neutral Grays setting determines the method for
creating gray colors used in text, graphics, and
photographs.
Match colors
●
Off turns off both trapping and adaptive halftoning.
●
Light sets trapping at a minimal level. Adaptive halftoning is on.
●
Normal sets trapping at a medium level. Adaptive halftoning is on.
●
Maximum is the most aggressive trapping setting. Adaptive
halftoning is on.
●
Smooth provides better results for large, solid-filled print areas and
enhances photographs by smoothing color gradations. Select this
option when uniform and smooth area fills are important.
●
Detail is useful for text and graphics that require sharp distinctions
among lines or colors, or images that contain a pattern or a high level
of detail. Select this option when sharp edges and small details are
important.
●
Black Only generates neutral colors (grays and black) by using only
black toner. This guarantees neutral colors without a color cast. This
setting is best for documents and grayscale viewgraphs.
●
4-Color generates neutral colors (grays and black) by combining all
four toner colors. This method produces smoother gradients and
transitions to other colors, and it produces the darkest black.
The process of matching product output color to a computer screen is quite complex because printers and
computer monitors use different methods of producing color. Monitors display colors by light pixels using an
RGB (red, green, blue) color process, but printers print colors using a CMYK (cyan, magenta, yellow, and black)
process.
Several factors can influence the ability to match printed colors to those on a monitor. These factors include:
●
Paper
●
Printer colorants (inks or toners for example)
●
Printing process (inkjet, press, or laser technology for example)
●
Overhead lighting

colors.
