Smoothing
ON, OFF*
Sets whether smoothing is done or
not. Angles and curves included in an
image are smoothed to improve the
image quality. If smoothing is set
when the resolution is set to 600dpi,
an image corresponding to 1200dpi is
printed. (Printing at 1200dpi provides
a higher print quality, but consumes a
greater memory space, resulting in a
low print speed. When the resolution
is set to 1200dpi, smoothing cannot
be selected.) To print a bitmap image,
it is better not to select smoothing to
have a better print quality.
Resolution 300dpi, 600dpi*,
1200dpi
Sets the printing resolution. When
1200dpi is selected, smoothing and
toner save cannot be selected.
Since 1200dpi printing consumes a
large memory space, resulting in a
low print speed.
