K Setting the scanning resolution

Resolution is a measure of the fineness or clarity of a printout. Low resolutions may cause text and graphics to have a jagged appearance, while higher resolutions provide smoother curves and lines, crisp text and graphics, and a better match to traditional typeface designs.

The higher the resolution, the higher the output quality, but the slower the scanning speed.
