Select print quality
The printer has various print-quality options because best-quality printing requires some loss of speed, while
fast printing implies some reduction in print quality.
Therefore, the standard print-quality selector is a slider that allows you to choose between quality and
speed. With some paper types, you can choose a compromise position between the two.
Alternatively, you can select from the custom options: Best, Normal and Fast. If you select Fast, you can also
select Economode, which uses a lower rendering resolution and consumes less ink. It therefore increases
printing speed even further, but reduces print quality. Economode can be selected only from the custom
options (not from the slider).
There is also two supplementary custom options that may have an effect on print quality: Maximum Detail
and More Passes. See
High-quality printing on page 77
NOTE:
In the Windows driver dialog, the rendering resolution for your job is displayed in the Custom Print
Quality Options dialog box (select Custom options and then Settings).
You can select print-quality options in the following ways:
●
In the Windows driver dialog: go to the Paper/Quality tab and look at the Print Quality section. If you
select Standard Options, you will see a simple slider with which you can select speed or quality. If you
select Custom Options, you will see the more specific options described above.
●
In the Mac OS X Print dialog: go to the Paper/Quality panel and look at the Quality Options section. If
you select Standard quality options, you will see a simple slider with which you can select speed or
quality. If you select Custom quality options, you will see the more specific options described above.

select Standard options, you can choose between Speed and Quality. If you select Custom options,
