Specifying full-color parameters
The [Color...] icon opens a Color dialog box, which allows you to specify job submission attributes for optimal color print quality. Select to print the job in Grayscale or Printer Default.

Select an option for Slow Scan, either Pixels, or Printer Default. Select [Ok] when complete.
