A tool to create a TRC (Tonal Reproduction Curve) file on an monochrome image formation device that relates "input" grayscale values of a source file and the desired "output" (printed) grayscale values. By adjusting this curve, i.e., mapping selected input values to new output values, the file will be reproduced with tonal ranges which have been broadened and/or compressed as appropriate. The TRC is applied when the desired print file is released for reproduction thereby allowing the user to choose a desired curve at a print queue level to adjust each print file as desired. The adjustments remap what the decomposer would normally produce to a more appropriate range of tonal variations to emphasize image characteristics and value.
