Quality mode
Your printer offers four predefined print quality modes which let you make tradeoffs between speed and quality.
The quality mode you use depends on various factors, such as your software application, whether you’re printing
in color or monochrome, and the type of media you’re using. Each quality mode directly affects the printing speed
and quality of the image you print, so you should understand the differences.
Each of the quality modes attempts to strike a balance between speed and quality. The default quality mode,
Productivity, provides quality images at a reasonable printing speed for most users. Whenever you choose a print
mode other than Productivity, you will choose to emphasize either speed or quality.
