OPERATION AND PRINTER DRIVER CONTROLS

Section 3-18

The Image Enhancement settings for that material are now complete. If you feel that you can “tweak” it a

little more, go back to step 2 and try again, but this time start with your current Image Enhancement

settings that you saved. It is not necessary to reset your nominal power setting and we recommend that

you leave it the same as the value you determined in step 1.

Setting the Image Enhancement parameters using this procedure will cause all of your graphics, whether

big or small, inverted or not, dense or highly detailed, to appear better than ever. We suggest that you

run this procedure for all your materials and save your parameters. This may sound like a big job, but the

additional productivity and engraving quality that your system is capable of producing is well worth the

small amount of time spent.

NOTE:

Image Enhancement will cause files to take longer to print. Since most materials do not require

the use of Image Enhancement, use this feature only as needed. Also, Image Enhancement and 3D

Effects cannot be selected at the same time. The printer driver will automatically notify you if you attempt

to do so.

Metric or Inches

Width and Height

The page size that you enter here MUST match the page size in your graphics software program

EXACTLY and it is up to the operator to enter in the correct settings. Select the metric box if metric

units are desired.

NOTE: Incorrect use of this feature may cause no graphics, partial graphics, erroneous graphics, or

a misaligned graphics output, relative to the application material, to occur. To avoid problems, we

recommend that set it to the maximum field size of your laser system (click the Maximum Page Size

button) and also set your graphics software programs page size to match.

Maximum Page Size Button

Clicking on this button restores the driver back to the default maximum page size that your model can

accept.

Dithering

Dithering settings are used when printing grayscale or color bitmapped images such as TIF, JPG, and

BMP formatted images. Since the laser system is essentially a black and white printer (black turns the

laser ON and white turns the laser OFF), and if you choose the correct settings, the driver will

automatically convert the grayscale or color bitmap into a 1-bit “halftoned” black and white image. This

process is very similar to how newspaper photographs as well as laser printer photographs are printed.

For a more detailed explanation of the terms “grayscale”, “bitmap”, “halftone”, or “dither”, please refer to

the “Graphic Software Setup” section in this manual.

Halftone

This halftone pattern generator converts grayscale bitmaps into a halftoned image based on your

Image Density choice in the driver.
