Quality

The quality selection lets you choose the print resolution. As print quality and speed are related, the higher the quality, the longer it will take to print the document. The quality selections that are available will vary depending on the media type you choose. (See Resolution in the Specifications in the User’s Guide.)

„Highest

Use for printing precise images such as photographs. This is the highest resolution and slowest speed.
