Quality 1
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. (See Resolution in the Specifications in the Basic User’s Guide.)
 Highest
Use for printing precise images such as photographs. This is the highest resolution and slowest speed.
 Photo
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
Better print quality than Normal mode and faster print speed than Photo.
 Normal
Good print quality with typical print speed.
 Fast Normal
Better print quality than Fast mode and faster print speed than Normal.
 Fast
The fastest print mode and the lowest amount of ink used. Use for printing large volume documents or
documents for proofing.
