You can specify the print quality in the following ways:

Using a Windows printer driver: go to the Print Quality section of the Paper/Quality tab.

Using a Mac OS printer driver: go to the Image Quality panel.

Using the Embedded Web Server: go to the Image Quality section of the Submit Job page.

Using the front panel: select the

icon, then Default printing options > Image quality.

NOTE If a print quality is set with the printer driver or with the Embedded Web Server, it
overrides the print quality setting from the front panel.

NOTE You cannot change the print quality of pages that the printer is already receiving or
has already received (even if they have not started to print yet).
