The printout does not match
the image on the computer
screen.
Certain applications or image creation methods pro-
duce images that cannot be printed exactly as they ap-
pear on the computer screen.
Checking the
[Print as bitmap_]
item of the printer driv-
er's
[Setup]
tab causes the print data to be converted to
image data before it is sent to the printer, which pro-
duces a printout that is closest to what appears on your
computer screen. See the printer driver's online help
for details about changing the settings on this tab.
Note
❒ The setting also causes large-volume print jobs
which take longer to print because of the required
conversion process.
