Tones but a printer at any position on a page could only print black or nothing. The solution to this was halftoning. This technique approximated a grey tone by printing an array of black dots; varying the size of the dots changed the tone displayed. The technique, of course, relies on the limitations of the human eye which does not register the individual dots if they are suffic iently small. A variation of this technique is used in computer graphic presentation. Normally, neither screen nor printer technology can produce varying size dots but the same effect can be produced by varying the number of dots created in what can be described as a halftone cell.
