Selecting Printer Software Settings

Once you click Properties, you see your printer software Properties dialog box.

The most important thing to remember is to set the correct Media Type for the paper you’re using. If necessary, click the Main tab to display the settings shown below:

Select the type of paper you loaded

Select the Ink color

Select Automatic mode

Select higher-quality or faster printing, or in-between

Click OK

Make the following settings on the Properties dialog box:

■Choose the paper you’re printing on (click the arrow to scroll through the Media Type list). If you’re not sure which setting to select, see page 17.

■Set the Ink option to Color to print a color document. To print a black text document, click Black.

■Set the Mode option to Automatic. It’s the easiest way to get good printing results on all types of paper.

■Set the slider in the Mode box to Quality or Speed to select high-quality printing, faster printing, or an in-between setting. (The slider may not be available for your paper type.)

■Click OK to return to your application’s Print dialog box.
