Setting Print Quality
The printer features the Print Quality menu which lets you select the intensity of tone mode (Normal
or Fine).
Tone Mode
Tone Mode selects the way the printer handles a pixel for representing the color and halftoning for
each pixel - Normal or Fine. The Fine tone mode uses four-bit smooth halftone for photographs,
images etc.; and the Normal tone mode uses a two-bit halftone for text, solid objects etc. Either of
these tone modes consistently affects all objects on a page.
The Fine tone mode provides a print quality better than Normal, but the printing speed is slower and
more memory is required.
NOTE: The amount of memory actually required may vary depending on the data to print.
