Halftone Screen
An experienced user can adjust Halftone Screen settings to create shades of gray in
graphic images. The Halftone Screen process breaks down the image into dots.
Larger dots spaced close together create darker shades, and smaller dots spaced
farther apart create lighter shades. Shading can be varied by adjusting the number
of rows of dots, the angle at which rows of dots are placed, and the shape of the dots.
Halftone Screen is available only when KPDL is selected in the Device Settings tab,
in PDL Settings. If GDI compatible mode is selected in the PDL Settings dialog
box, Halftone Screen is unavailable.
