The print-quality mode affects the appearance of your prints and the time they take to print. Select one of the following print-quality modes:

  • Fast Color: Fastest full-color mode, useful for many images and previewing your work. Rapidly produces review documents; useful for rush jobs. Not recommended for documents containing small text, fine detail, or large areas of bright solid fill.

  • Standard: General-purpose mode for full-color printing. Produces crisp, bright prints at high speed. Recommended for vibrant, saturated color prints.

  • Enhanced: Best mode for business presentations. Produces superior text resolution and very smooth light colors.

  • Photo: Provides the best detail and smoothness for photographic images.

NOTE: The print job may take longer to process when printed in Enhanced or Photo print-quality mode.
