At the left, select the color you used in your drawing fi le. At the right, change
any or all of the following settings.
Color : This is the hardcopy color.
Dither : This option will be dimmed if your printer or plotter does not
support dithering. Dither allows the printer to give the impression of
using more colors than the limited 255 colors provided by AutoCAD. It is
preferable to leave this option off. It should be on if you want Screening
to work.
Grayscale : You can translate the 255 colors to grayscale grades (good
for laser printers).
Pen # : This option is only for the old types of plotters—pen plotters—
that are obsolete now.
Virtual pen # : This option is for non-pen plotters to simulate pen plotters
by assigning a virtual pen to each color. It is preferable to leave this setting
on Automatic .
Screening : This is good for trial printing. If you set numbers less than
100, it will reduce the intensity of the shading and fi ll hatches. You should
turn Dither on so Screening will be effective.
Linetype : You can use the object's linetype or you can set a different
linetype for each color.
