APPLICATIONS COMPATIBILITY EXCELLENT
No problems were experienced with any of the test files used in the applications
compatibility tests. Units are tested for compatibility on Windows 2000 platforms
with Microsoft Word 2000, PowerPoint 2000 and Excel 2000, as well as Adobe Page-
Maker 7.0, Photoshop 6.0 and Acrobat 8.0, using 25 application test files that contain
text, graphics, halftone images, tables, etc., enabling BLI technicians to evaluate
memory usage, file processing, font rendering and greyscale capability.
COLOUR/BLACK PRINT QUALITY VERY GOOD
Business graphics were rated good, as consistency of solids, sharpness of fine
details and production of pastel shades were competitive; while background repro-
duction was above average, saturation wasn’t bright enough. Photographic images
were very good overall, as sharpness of details and halftone range were above aver-
age; though output appeared somewhat grainy, flesh tones were natural-looking.
The gamut experienced a moderate increase in volume in the green through red
regions at all points after the start of testing. All other colours remained consistent
over the course of the evaluation.
Easy Colour Manager enables users to enhance image quality via balance, bright-
ness, contrast and saturation controls.
Text was rated very good, as characters were fully formed and displayed above aver-
age darkness and competitive sharpness, with no toner overspray, while smooth-
ness of curves/serifs was above average. Line art was very good overall, as closely
spaced fine lines remained distinct, consistency of line thickness was above average
and circles were fully formed, while diagonal lines exhibited some evidence of stair-
stepping. Halftone pattern and range were rated excellent and very good, respec-
tively; greyscale was visible from the 1 to 95 percent dot-fill levels with distinct transi-
tions between most levels, while coverage within levels displayed no graininess and
minimal banding. Solids were excellent overall due to above average darkness and
competitive consistency of coverage.
