Change copy speed or quality

The device provides three options that affect copy speed and quality:

•Best produces the highest quality for all paper and eliminates the banding (striping) effect that sometimes occurs in solid areas. Best copies slower than the other quality settings.

•Normal delivers high-quality output and is the recommended setting for most of your copying. Normal copies faster than Best and is the default setting.

•Fast copies faster than the Normal setting. The text is comparable to the quality of the Normal setting, but the graphics might be lower quality. The Fast setting uses less ink and extends the life of your print cartridges.

To change the copy quality from the control panel

1.Make sure you have paper loaded in the input tray.

2.Place your original face down on the glass.

3.In the Copy area, press Quality until the appropriate quality setting is lit.

4.Press START COPY Black or START COPY Color.
