Description

Unidirectional Printing

Choosing unidirectional printing can improve printing results if
lines are printed crooked or images are uneven. However, this
takes more time than regular printing.

Thicken Fine Lines (Windows)
Thicken Fine Lines (Mac OS X)

Choose this option to make ne lines clearer in CAD drawings
or similar documents.

Sharpen Text (*1)

Choose this option to print intricate text more distinctly.

Reduce Print Unevenness (*2)

Choose this option to counteract uneven printing.

Economy Printing

When this mode is selected, less ink is consumed than in
regular printing, but the quality is diminished.
Select this mode if you want to conserve ink when checking
drawings, for example. Depending on the Media Type and Print
Quality
settings, this mode may not be available.
