Print Quality Settings
Several factors control the appearance of the printed page. You can
regulate how much toner the printer applies to each black dot, or
pixel, as well as the frequency and size of the dots.
Each of the following sections describes a printer setting you can
change to alter the appearance of the printed document. Note that
some of these settings complement each other, while others are
mutually exclusive. See the table on page 347 for a summary.
