Optimizing print quality for media types

Media type settings control the temperature of your printer's fuser. You can change the
settings for the media that you are using to optimize the print quality.

The HP LaserJet 1018 printer provides a number of print modes that allow the unit to adapt
more specifically to the printer's media environment. The following tables provide an
overview of the driver print modes.

NOTE

When using the CARDSTOCK, ENVELOPE, LABEL, and ROUGH modes, the printer
pauses between pages and the number of pages per minute decreases.
