High-Speed Mode
When High-Speed Mode is on, the printer prints in bidirectional mode: it prints a line from right to left and the next line from left to right. If High-Speed Mode is not on, all lines are printed in the same direction.
Printing is faster when High-Speed Mode is on. However, the vertical alignment may not be as precise. For this reason, turn off High-Speed Mode when you need to increase print quality.
Deciding what printer settings to use
To get the highest-quality printing, use 720-dpi resolution and make sure MicroWeave is on and High-Speed Mode is off. Be sure to use EPSON Special coated paper for 720 dpi. If you use any other paper type, the ink may spread and so reduce the print quality.
For fast printing, use 360- or 180-dpi resolution (180 dpi is faster than 360 dpi), turn on High-Speed Mode, and turn off MicroWeave.
