Understanding print quality settings 45

Print quality settings affect how light or dark the print is on the page and the style that the graphics 
are printed. You can also use the print quality settings to optimize the print quality for a specific 
media type. See 

 for more information.

You can change the settings in the printer properties to accommodate the types of jobs you are 
printing. The following are the settings:

●

600 dpi: This is the default setting.

●

FastRes 1200: This setting provides better print quality, but jobs take longer to print.

●

ProRes 1200: This setting is available for the HP LaserJet 1300 series printer. It provides the 
best print quality.

●

EconoMode (Saves Print Cartridges): Text is printed using less toner. This setting is useful 
when you are printing drafts. You can turn on this option independently of other print quality 
settings.

Access the printer properties (or printing preferences in Windows 2000 and XP). See 

 for instructions. 

On the Paper/Quality tab or the Finishing tab (the Paper Type/Quality tab for some Mac 
drivers), select the print quality setting you want to use.

Not all printer features are available from all drivers or operating systems. See the printer properties 
(driver) online Help for information about availability of features for that driver.

To change the print quality settings for all future print jobs, access the properties through the Start 
menu in the Windows system tray. To change the print quality settings only for the current software 
application’s use, access the properties through the Print Setup menu in the application you are 
using to print. See 

 for more information.
