FASTRES 1200

600: Produces high print quality for text and can be used for

 

PRORES 1200

compatibility with the HP LaserJet 4 family of printers.

 

FASTRES 1200: Produces 1200-dpi print quality for fast,

 

 

 

 

high-quality printing of business text and graphics.

 

 

PRORES 1200: Produces 1200-dpi print quality for fast,

 

 

high-quality printing of line art and graphic images.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

NOTE It is best to change the resolution in the

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

program or printer driver. (Program and printer-

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

driver settings override control-panel settings.)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The default setting is FASTRES 1200.

 

 

 

RET

OFF

Use the Resolution Enhancement technology (REt) setting

 

LIGHT

to produce print with smooth angles, curves, and edges.

 

REt does not affect print quality if the print resolution is set

 

MEDIUM

 

to FastRes 1200 or ProRes 1200. All other print resolutions

 

DARK

benefit from REt.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

NOTE It is best to change the REt setting in the

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

program or printer driver. (Program and printer-

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

driver settings override control-panel settings.)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The default setting is MEDIUM.

 

 

 

ECONOMODE

ON

Use EconoMode to use less toner per page. Selecting ON

 

OFF

extends the life of the toner supply and reduces the cost per

 

page. However, it also reduces print quality. The printed

 

 

image is lighter, but it is adequate for printing drafts or

 

 

proofs.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

NOTE It is best to turn EconoMode on or off in the

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

program or printer driver. (Program and printer-

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

driver settings override control-panel settings.)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The default setting is OFF.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

CAUTION HP does not recommend full-time use

 

 

 

 

 

 

of EconoMode. If EconoMode is used full-time, the

 

 

 

 

 

 

toner supply might outlast the mechanical parts in

 

 

 

 

 

 

the print cartridge.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

TONER DENSITY

1 to 5

Lighten or darken the print on the page by setting the toner

 

 

density. Select a setting ranging from 1 (light) to 5 (dark).

 

 

The default setting of 3 usually produces the best results.
