Print Quality

There are 4 levels of print quality in the driver. The lower the Quality, the faster the print. Quality 1 provides the fastest print available while Quality 4 provides the best photo quality. It is recommended that you experiment with the different levels when designing your label to find a good balance between print quality and print speed.

Color Type

Best for Graphics mode is best used for graphical images where accurate color reproduction is not as essential. Images printed in this mode will look more vibrant because more ink is being used to produce them. However, printing images of people may produce skin tones that have a reddish tint.

Best for Photos mode is best used for photographic images where accurate color reproduction is very essential. Images printed in this mode will look lighter than those printed in Photo mode. Skin tones especially will look more natural in this mode.

NOTE: Exact color matching of the printed labels to the screen may never be possible since there are factors that affect this out of the drivers con- trol. The surface of the label reacts with the ink in the cartridge to produce the color. For this reason, when printing the same image to different types of labels with different surfaces the printed output can look entirely different.

Intensity

This option controls the amount of ink used when printing an image. The default setting is 100%, which will provide the most accurate color matching. If the ink is not drying fast enough or bleeding, you can decrease the Ink Saturation to lessen the amount of ink that is applied to the label.
