Image Smoothing

Image smoothing blends adjacent colors in low-resolution images for smoother color transitions. For example, use image smoothing to improve the appearance of a 72 dpi image downloaded from the World Wide Web. Image smoothing is not recommended for images with resolutions of 300 dpi or higher.

Printing Cover Pages

A cover page is the first or last page of a document. The printer enables you to choose a different paper source for the cover page than for the body of a document. For instance, use your company letterhead for the first page of a document, or use card stock for the first and last pages of a report.

Use any paper tray as the source for printing cover pages.

Verify that the cover page is the same size as the paper used for the rest of your document. If you specify a different size in the driver than the tray you select as a cover pages source, your cover(s) print on the same paper as the rest of your document.

You have several choices for cover pages:

None - Prints the first and last pages of your document using the same paper as the rest of your document.

First Page Only - Prints only the first page of your document from one tray, then prints the remainder of your document from another tray.

First and Last Pages - Prints only the first and last pages of your document from one tray, then prints the remainder of your document from another tray.
