Is there any way to reduce Ink consumption?
-
Reducing the print resolution will reduce ink consumption. However please note that the print quality will not be as sharp.
*To change the print resolution,- For Windows® 95/ 98/ 98SE/ Me/ NT/ 2000 users:
Click Start, Settings, then Printers.
For Windows® XP users:
Click Start, Printers and Faxes.
- For Windows® 95/ 98/ 98SE/ Me/ NT users:
Right click the printer icon and select Properties for the machine you are using and then click on the Quality/Color tab.
For Windows® 2000/ XP users:
Right click the printer icon and select Properties for the machine you are using, then click on Printing Preference and Quality/Color tab.
- For Windows® 95/ 98/ 98SE/ Me/ NT/ 2000 users:
- If the color mode setting is ON for printing black and white document data, ink is wasted unnecessarily. Be sure that the Color/Mono mode setting is Grayscale when you print black and white documents. (Follow the steps above to access the Printer Driver Properties.)
If you are not having a print quality problem, DO NOT clean the print head.
