Print resolution
Your printer provides two different print modes that change the print resolutions of each of the print quality modes. These different print modes are optimized for: Line Drawings/Text or Images.
You can then choose between three levels of print quality for each of the print modes: Best, Normal or Fast, from your software or from the printer's front panel.
With the Best mode selected, you have an additional selection available to provide maximum detail for your printed image by increasing the resolution of your job above the default resolution.
