Image Smoothing
Image Smoothing is selected from the printer’s front panel (in the Printer Defaults
menu) as well as in supported printer drivers. Image Smoothing blends adjacent
colors in an image so that color transitions are less noticeable.
This feature is typically used when the image being printed is at a lower resolution
than the printer’s output resolution. For example, printing an image downloaded
from the World Wide Web at 72 dpi using the printer’s 300 dpi. Images printed
using Image Smoothing appear with less sharp detail but with smoother color
transitions. Image Smoothing does not affect images at 150 dpi or higher. Due to
extra internal calculations, printing may take longer with Image Smoothing on.
