Using compression reduces the size of the output file. Compression method uses a formula or algorithm to compress data. This algorithm determines the compression quality.
Compression can be either lossy (some information is permanently lost) or lossless (all information can be restored).
Black Ice Printer Drivers provide the following compression methods:
None - no compression algorithm is used.
Flate is a lossless compression method. Flate works well on images with large areas of single colors or repeating patterns.
CCITT Fax is also a lossless compression option. CCITT stands for International Coordinating Committee for Telephony and Telegraphy. CCITT Fax compression is the appropriate compression method for black-and-white images made by paint programs and any images scanned with an image depth of 1 bit.
