HP Deskjet 5740 Color Inkjet Printer - Manual (Page 24)

The 4800 x 1200 optimized dpi is the highest quality resolution for this printer. When
4800 x 1200 optimized dpi is selected in the printer software, the tri-color print cartridge
prints in the 4800 x 1200 optimized dpi mode (up to 4800 x 1200 optimized dpi color
and 1200-input dpi). If a
photo print cartridge is also installed, the print quality is
enhanced. A photo print cartridge can be purchased separately if it is not included with
the printer.
Note Using Maximum dpi increases the printing time and requires a large amount of
disk space.
Follow these steps to print in the 4800 x 1200 optimized dpi mode:

Open the Printer Properties dialog box.
2 Click the Printing Shortcuts tab or the Paper/Quality tab.
