Media Type The S600 automatically adjusts printer settings to improve print quality based on the media type (plain paper, Glossy Photo Paper, etc.) you select.

Print Quality When you select a media type, print quality is automatically set for that media. You can change print quality settings if desired.

To manually adjust print quality settings in Windows:

1.From an application File menu, select Print.

2.With Canon S600 as the selected printer, click Properties. The S600 Properties window will open to the Main tab.

3.Select the appropriate Media Type from the drop-down menu.

4.Each media type has a default print quality, but you can select a different Print Quality:

High For high quality when printing a color document.

Standard For high quality when printing text.

Draft For printing text drafts at a faster speed.

Custom Allows for more precise control.

If you select Custom, the Set button becomes active. Click Set to open the Set Print Quality dialog box. There are two features you can control:

Print Quality The printer driver provides five settings for custom print quality, ranging from Fast at the far left (prints at 600 dpi, which means faster printing and less ink) to Fine, which prints at 2400 x 1200 dpi.

Halftoning This controls the pattern in

which the ink is laid down during printing for graphic images.

5.When done, click OK.
