User Setup Information
Automatic Halftone Settings
The printer driver includes an automatic Method option that
determines the correct halftone settings for you, as described in
Chapter 2. When set, the driver analyzes the elements on a
page to be printed and automatically adjusts the halftone
settings so your printed results are appropriate for the image
type.
Three Resolutions to Choose From
Resolution is a measure of the amount of detail that can be
represented. The higher the resolution, the more detailed and
realistic the image, and the longer it takes to print. For printed
images, resolution is measured in dots per inch (dpi).
The printer has three resolutions, or printing modes: 720 dpi,
360 dpi, and 180 dpi. Use 720 dpi for the best possible images.
For high-quality images in less time, use 360 dpi. When speed
is important and draft quality is good enough, use 180 dpi. For
guidelines on selecting the best resolution for your print jobs,
see Chapter 2.
