Change the print quality
Your printer has three different print quality options: Best, Normal and Fast. There are also two
supplementary options that have an effect on print quality: Optimize for drawings/text or Optimize for
images, and Maximum detail. See
Choose print quality settings on page 57
for guidance on choosing
among these options.
You can specify the print quality in the following ways:
●
Using a Windows printer driver: go to the Print Quality section of the Paper/Quality tab.
●
Using a Mac OS printer driver: go to the Image Quality panel.
●
Using the Embedded Web Server: go to the Image Quality section of the Submit Job page.
●
Using the front panel: select the
icon, then Default printing options > Image quality.
NOTE:
If a print quality is set with the printer driver or with the Embedded Web Server, it overrides the
print quality setting from the front panel.
NOTE:
You cannot change the print quality of pages that the printer is already receiving or has already
received (even if they have not started to print yet).
