Other Ways to Improve Print Speed in Windows
To improve printing speed, you can try the following:
❍ Turn off the Print Manager in the Windows Control Panel
(Windows 3.1 only).
This avoids the extra step of sending the print file to the Print
Manager and may increase your printing speed by as much as
25%, depending on the computer you are using.
❍ Add a permanent swap file in Windows 3.1.
Under the 386 Enhanced icon in the Windows Control Panel, add
or create a permanent swap file that is from 4 MB to 9 MB. The
computer will be able to prepare the print file faster. See your
Windows documentation for instructions.
❍ Avoid diffusion halftones.
In the Custom Settings dialog box, choose Diffusion for halftoning
only when printing final output or photographic images. Choosing
Fine allows documents to print as much as 20% faster because the
computer does not need to compute to “best possible position” for
each dot.
❍ Avoid screen matched color.
In the Custom Settings dialog box, avoid Match as the Color
Adjustment setting. The screen matching feature takes longer to
process in the computer because it requires special information.
