Quality

The Quality options you can select may vary depending
on your printer model.
The higher the setting, the sharper the
clarity of printed characters and graphics. The higher setting also
may increase the time it takes to print a document.

the best possible print quality for color documents. If you want to

. If you

Manual
and
click the
Color Adjust
or
Color Matching
button.

Output Options
•
Print Subset

print. Select the print order from the drop-down list.
-
Normal (1,2,3)

page to the last page.
-

: Your printer prints all pages
from the last page to the first page.
-
Print Odd Pages
: Your printer prints only the odd numbered
pages of the document.
-
Print Even Pages
: Your printer prints only the even
numbered pages of the document.
•
Use Printer Fonts
: When Use Printer Fonts is checked, the
printer uses the fonts that are stored in its memory (resident
fonts) to print your document, rather than downloading the
fonts used in your document. Because downloading fonts takes
time, selecting this option can speed up your printing time.
When using Printer fonts, the printer will try to match the fonts
used in your document to those stored in its memory. If,
however, you use fonts in your document that are very different
from those resident in the printer, your printed output will
appear very different from what it looks like on the screen.
This feature is available only when you use the PCL
printer driver.
