In the print quality range from [High speed] to [High quality] the quality increases while the speed
decreases.
In all cases where we have both a fast and a standard mode:
• the fast mode is faster than the standard mode
• the fast mode uses less toner than the standard mode, so the standard mode output has a
higher toner coverage
Set the print quality in the print job default settings
1. Open the [Preferences] - [Print job defaults] tab.
2. Click on [Edit] in the [Image] section or click on the [Print quality] setting.
3. Select [Print Assistant] (OPA) to automatically select the best print quality based upon the
content of the file or manually choose a print quality yourself from the list in the table above.
4. Click [Ok] to confirm, or [Cancel] to reject your entries.
