Selecting Printer Software Settings

Now open the File menu and click

Print

. You see the main printer settings dialog box

for your application (your dialog box may look slightly different):

The most important thing to remember is to set the correct Media Type for the paper

Make the following settings on the dialog box:

Choose the

Media Type

you’re printing on (click the

arrow button to scroll through the list). If you’re not
sure which setting to select, see page 35.

Set the Ink option to

Color

to print a color document.

To print a black text document, click

Black

.

Set the Mode option to

Automatic

. This lets the printer software determine the

best settings for your print job. It’s the easiest way to get good printing results on
all types of paper.

Set the slider in the Mode box to

Quality

or

Speed

. This lets you choose between

a higher resolution or faster printing (or an in-between setting) for the paper
you’re using. (The slider is not available when certain media types are selected.)

When you’ve selected your settings, click

Print

to print your document.

Select faster or higher-quality printing, or in-between
