The table on the following page describes how to change the resolu-
tion for each type of fax. This setting needs to be changed before you
begin faxing.
Notes:
1) When you change the Resolution setting, it will stay at that setting
until you change it again.
2) The Contrast/Resolution button settings also affect the quality of
copies made from the HP OfficeJet’s keypad. See “Optimizing the
quality” under “Copying from the Keypad” in Chapter 4.
