+.TH GIMPPRINT\-IMAGETYPES 7 "@RELEASE_DATE@" "Version @GIMPPRINT_VERSION@" "Gimp-Print Manual Pages"
+.SH NAME
+gimpprint\-imagetypes \- Gimp-Print image types
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+Gimp-Print includes several image types which can be used to optimise
+the dither, depending on the type of image you wish to print.
+.SH IMAGE TYPE
+Possible values are:
+.PP
+.TS
+li li
+lb lw(4i).
+Value Description
+_
+1 T{
+.na
+Line art (color or gray scale)
+T}
+2 T{
+Primarily solid colors or smooth gradients (color or gray scale)
+T}
+3 T{
+Continuous-tone photographs (color or gray scale)
+T}
+.TE
+.PP
+Option \fI0\fP is the fastest. It generates strong, but not particularly
+accurate, colors. There may be some fairly sharp color transitions in this
+mode.
+.PP
+Option \fI1\fP generates more accurate colors, but is slower.
+.PP
+Option \fI2\fP generates the most accurate colors, but is considerably slower.
+.PP
+Note that any of the modes may be used with either color or black & white
+output. If black and white output is requested, but a color mode used,
+composite color will be printed. This generally offers smoother tone, but less
+purity of gray or black, than pure black ink. Furthermore, it is possible to
+tune the color of the gray (to achieve warmer or cooler effects) using the
+color controls in this fashion.
