A DotA single element in the halftone printing process. In traditional halftone generation, dots vary in size to control the intensity of the printed color. In digital printing, the dot size is fixed by the print mechanism. Pattern is a method by which dots (small drops of ink) are placed on media. There are two ways that dots can be placed so that they can trick the human eye into seeing a continuous color. RIP-QueueAn organized list of jobs that are printed on a first-in first-out (FIFO) basis. supports both methods: Halftone1. An image in which continuous tones are simulated by regular patterns (screens) of small dots. 2. A process for creating images. Screening can be done at different angles and the line density varies over a wide range (50 – 500 lines per inch). Printing a black & white photograph on a press or printer requires the creation of a single halftone. Four color process printing requires a separate halftone for each of the process colors. See also Continuous Tone, Screen Angle. and ContoneA RIP-Queue dot pattern that produces continuous tone data (such as RGB TIFF output) as opposed to half-tone data..

The ink configuration is the physical ink loaded in the printer, (e. g. CMYKSystem for describing colors based on a combination of values for Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Black; the ink colors used in four-color process printing. In theory, 100% of Cyan, Magenta, and Yellow create Black. In practice, the addition of Black ink is necessary to print a true Black. See also RGB.) and the type (e. g. UV, Dye) Enable the ink configurations you want to use by clicking the checkbox next to each ink configuration. To enable all ink configurations, click the checkbox at the top. Ink Configurations that work best for your printer are automatically selected.
