Increasing the Print Speed
General tips
Printing color images using higher print quality settings takes
longer than printing black-and-white images in standard print
quality, as the volume of data in high quality color documents is
much greater. For this reason, it is important to be selective in
your use of color and print quality settings if you also require a
faster print speed.
Even if your document requires the highest print quality and
extensive use of color, it may still be possible to optimize the print
speed by adjusting other printing conditions. Keep in mind that
changing some conditions to increase the print speed may also
lower print quality.
The following table shows the factors that inversely affect print
speed and print quality (increasing one will decrease the other).
