The quality selection lets you choose the print resolution. As print quality and speed are related, the higher the quality, the longer it will take to print the document. The quality selections that are available will vary depending on the media type you choose.
• | Highest Up to 1200 × 6000 dpi. (See Resolution in Specifications in the User’s Guide.) Use for printing precise images such as photographs. This is the highest resolution and slowest speed. |
• | Photo Up to 1200 × 2400 dpi. Use for printing photographs. Since the print data is much larger than a normal document, the processing time, data transfer time and print time will be longer. |
• | Fine 1200 × 1200 dpi. Better print quality than Normal mode and faster print speed than Photo. |
• | Normal 600 × 600 dpi. Good print quality with typical print speed. |
• | Fast Normal 600 × 300 dpi. Better print quality than Fast mode and faster print speed than Normal. |
• | Fast 600 × 150 dpi. The fastest print mode and the lowest amount of ink used. Use for printing large volume documents or documents for proofing. |
