CHAPTER 4 CONTROL PANEL
4–31
The high resolution control has been factory set to “MEDIUM.” The
“LIGHT” or “DARK” setting might be better depending on the selected
print density. Choose the best setting for clear and crisp printouts.
To check the printout with the high resolution control, perform the test print
with the TEST switch. For operation, see “TEST Switch.”
When you perform “TEST PRINT,” the printer prints the test pattern
including a block of lines. If the high resolution control is “OFF,” the lines
in the test pattern are unsmoothed or stepped as shown in the left figure
below. The pattern will be smoother if the high resolution control is set to
LIGHT, MEDIUM, or DARK. Choose an HRC setting and perform the test
print so that stepped lines become unnoticeable.
HRC = OFF HRC = MEDIUM

BR-Script 2 mode.
If print images are too complex to print, the printer may print them out in
parts or only on part of the page. If this occurs, the printer loses print data
and shows the following message:
