High-quality printing
You can specify high-quality printing in the following ways:
● In the Windows driver dialog: go to the Paper/Quality tab and look at the Print Quality section. Move
the print-quality slider to the extreme right ('Quality').
● In the Mac OS X Print dialog: go to the Paper/Quality panel and move the print-quality slider to the
extreme right ('Quality').
● On the Embedded Web Server's Submit Job page: select Basic settings > Print quality > Standard
options > Quality.
●
Using the front panel: press , then , then Setup > Printing preferences > Print quality >
Quality level > Best.
NOTE: If the print quality is set from your computer, it overrides the print-quality setting in the front panel.
TIP: For the highest-quality printing on photo paper, see Manual printing with the stacker open on page 60 .
If you have a high-resolution image
If your image has a resolution greater than the rendering resolution (which you can see in the Custom Print
Quality Options box under Windows), print sharpness may be improved by selecting the Maximum Detail
option. This option is available only if you are printing on photo paper and you have selected Best print
quality.
● In the driver dialog (Mac OS X Print dialog): select Custom instead of Standard print-quality options,
then check the Maximum Detail box.
● On the Embedded Web Server's Submit Job page: select Basic settings > Print quality > Custom. Set
Quality level to Best, and Maximum detail to On.
●
Using the front panel: press , then , then Setup > Printing preferences > Print quality >
Maximum detail.
NOTE: The Maximum Detail option results in slower printing with photo papers, but it does not increase the
amount of ink used.
If you have printhead problems
If your printheads have an excessive number of clogged nozzles (which may cause banding or white streaks
on your prints), print quality can be improved by selecting the More Passes option.
● In the driver dialog (Mac OS X Print dialog): select custom instead of standard print-quality options,
then check the More Passes box.
● On the Embedded Web Server's Submit Job page: select Basic settings > Print quality > Custom. Set
Quality level to Best, and More passes to Yes.
NOTE: The More Passes option results in slower printing, but it does not increase the amount of ink used.
TIP: Instead of using this option, consider using the Image Diagnostics Print to identify the printhead or
printheads that are causing the problem, and then clean or replace them. See The Image Diagnostics Print
on page 196 .
