You can specify even faster draft-quality printing by using EconoMode, as follows. This is intended

mainly for documents containing only text and line drawings.

In the Windows driver dialog: go to the Paper/Quality tab and look at the Print Quality
section. Select Custom Options, then set the quality level to Fast and check the EconoMode

box.

In the Mac OS X 10.4 Print dialog: go to the Image Quality panel and set the quality

options to Custom, then set quality to Fast and check the EconoMode box.

In the Mac OS X 10.5 Print dialog: go to the Paper/Quality panel and set the quality
options to Custom, then set quality to Fast and check the EconoMode box.

On the Embedded Web Server's Submit Job page: select Basic settings > Print

quality > Custom. Set Quality level to Fast, and EconoMode to On.

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 10.4 Print dialog: go to the Image Quality panel and move the print-

quality slider to the extreme right ('Quality').

In the Mac OS X 10.5 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: select the Setup menu icon

, then Printing preferences > Print

quality > Select quality level > Best.

Printing is bidirectional by default (the printheads print when travelling in both directions across the

paper), but you can choose Unidirectional printing for a further small improvement in quality at the
expense of speed. This option is not available if you have chosen Fast print quality.

If you have a high-resolution image

If your image has a resolution greater than the rendering resolution (which you can see in the driver's

Paper/Quality tab under Windows), print sharpness may be improved by selecting the Maximum

Detail option. This option is available only if you are printing on glossy paper and you have selected

Best print quality.

In the driver dialog (Mac OS 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 Yes.

NOTE:

The Maximum Detail option results in slower printing with photo papers, but it does not

increase the amount of ink used.
