4.3.12 IPDS Resolution

600 dpi* | Print at 600 pel resolution |
1200 dpi | Print at 1200 pel resolution |
300 dpi | Print at 300 pel resolution |
Note: | The 3812/16 emulation does not support the printer IPDS Resolution |
| setting of 300 dpi. If 3812/16 emulation is selected and the printer IPDS |
| Resolution setting is 300 dpi, the printer IPDS emulation ignores the 300 |
| dpi setting and uses 600 dpi. This means, that the 240 dpi data received |
| from the host is converted to the printer's working resolution of 600 dpi. |
Some jobs may not print in the standard 4MB of installed printer memory. The 300 dpi resolution uses the least amount of memory. Switch to this resolution if your job will not print in the memory installed in the printer or add additional memory. Refer to appendix C. Recommended memory on page 151 for minimum total recommended memory for each resolution setting. Additional memory above the total recommended may be required for printing complex pages. Additional memory may also increase print speed.
