Custom Printing

If vertical lines in your printout are misaligned when you use the High Speed setting, you may need to align the print heads. See Chapter 5 for instructions.

6.Choose one of the following Halftoning options:

◗No Halftoning

For printing black text only.

◗Error Diffusion

For printing photographic or video/digital camera images. Blends each dot of color with the surrounding dots.

◗Dithering

For printing charts, graphs, and other images that require precise, solid areas of bright colors. Arranges dots in orderly patterns. Use Coarse for images with more shading and less detail. Use Fine for images with more detail and less shading.

7.Choose any of the following options. Some of these settings are automatically selected or disabled by the Print Quality (resolution) you choose.

◗MicroWeave

For improved print quality. Prints graphic data in finer increments to eliminate unwanted banding effects (light horizontal lines). Always use for color printing.

◗High Speed

For fast, bidirectional printing at lower quality.

◗Flip Horizontal

Prints a mirror image of your document. Use for printing with iron-on transfer paper. When you iron the printout onto a T-shirt or other item, it will read correctly.

◗Finest Detail

For printing text, graphics, and line art with very sharp edges. Slows print speed and increases your system memory requirements.
