7. "DRAFT"
[Productivity oriented]
(2-pass)
The print resolution is 360
×
720 dpi. The print speed is maximum 30 m
2
/h but the print
density is entirely lighter than that of NORMAL mode, and uneven printing may be notice-
able depending on the type of media. A solid image of 100% density is printed at 50% the
density of NORMAL mode. This mode can also be used for checking the layout.
8. "FAST"
[PC processing time reduction]
(4-pass)
The density is equivalent to that of NORMAL mode. The print speed is the same as that of
NORMAL mode.
9. "F-H-QUALITY"
[PC processing time reduction]
(8-pass)
Use this mode if the drying performance is poor in FAST mode or if uneven printing is
noticeable. However, the print speed is half the speed of FAST mode.
10."F-H-DENSITY" [PC processing time red High density printing] (8-pass)
The density and print speed are equivalent to those of H-DENSITY mode.
11. "F-3 TIMES" [PC processing time red High density printing] (12-pass)
The density and print speed are equivalent to those of 3 TIMES mode.
12."F-H-QUAL2"
[PC processing time reduction]
(16-pass)
Use this mode if the drying performance is poor in F-H-QUALITY mode or if uneven print-
ing is noticeable. The print speed is half the speed of F-H-QUALITY mode.
13."F-H-DENS2" [PC processing time red High density printing] (16-pass)
The density is equivalent to that of H-DENSITY mode. The print speed is half the speed of
F-H-DENSITY mode.
14."FINE DRAFT"
[Produc Image quality oriented]
(4-pass)
The print resolution is 540

720 dpi. The print speed is 20 m

/h, faster than that of NOR-
MAL mode by about 20%. Use this mode if high productivity is required. The image quality
of photographs is almost equivalent to that of NORMAL mode, but a solid image of 100%
density is printed at 75% the density of NORMAL mode. Therefore, if the darkness of
colors is important, use the NORMAL mode.
-
The recommended print mode for this printer is "NOR-
MAL" mode. Use other modes if productivity and image
quality are important.
-
Use the FAST mode in 8 - 13 if the CPU speed of the PC is
slow or the memory or HDD capacity is small. These modes
put emphasis on the PC processing speed and thus the RIP
time of the PC is shortened, but the input resolution of im-
age quality is 360
×
360 dpi. Accordingly, the printed image
will be rather rough compared to that of normal modes (1-6).
