Making Changes to Printer Settings
Making the print quality setting
You can change the print quality of printouts through settings in
the printer driver. The printer driver provides you with the choice
of letting the printer make the settings automatically, choosing
from a list of predefined settings, or customizing the settings.
Choosing the print quality by using the Automatic setting
You can change the print quality of printouts to favor speed or
detail. If you need high quality output, choose a higher number.
Please note that doing so reduces the print speed.
When the Automatic button is selected in the Basic Settings menu,
the printer driver takes care of all detailed settings according to
the color setting you select. Color and resolution are the only
settings you have to make. You can change other settings such as
paper size or orientation in most applications.
Note:
Online help provides more information on printer driver settings.
