Optimizing print quality for media types

Media type settings control the temperature of your printer’s fuser. You can change the settings for the media that you are using to optimize the print quality.

You can access the optimizing feature from the Paper tab in your printer driver or from HP toolbox.

Printing speeds are automatically reduced when printing special-sized media.
