Maximum dpi
The maximum dpi print quality setting offers 4800 x 1200 optimized dots per inch (dpi)
printing.
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:
1.
Open the Printer Properties dialog box.
2. Click the Paper/Quality tab.
3. In the Type is drop-down list, click the appropriate photo paper type.
4. In the Print quality drop-down list, click Maximum dpi.
5. Select any other print settings that you want, and then click OK.
Note Use an HP premium photo paper when printing in the maximum dpi mode
to enhance color matching and detail in the photo.
