Administration/Engine/Def Resolution

300 dpi—300x300 dpi resolution

600 dpi—600x600 dpi resolution

1200 dpi—1200x600 dpi resolution

2400 dpi—2400x600 dpi resolution

600 dpi, 1200 dpi, or 2400 dpi—your printer’s default is the 
highest resolution available for the amount of RAM installed in 
the printer (see “Minimum System Memory Requirements” on 
page 3-3 for more information)

Whenever possible, set the print resolution through your 
application. If the print resolution can’t be set through the 
application, you can set it through the configuration menu, the 
printer driver, or QMS Document Option Commands (DOCs).

If you want the printer to use a lower default resolution when 
you restore defaults, set this option to your choice (and make 
any other necessary configuration settings), and then use the Administration/Miscellaneous/Save Defaults menu to save your custom defaults. See “Working with Custom Configurations” in chapter 4, “Printer Configuration,” of the Reference for more information.

In addition, after you lower the default resolution, you should 
reconfigure the printer memory (Administration/Memory/Quick 
Config menu) to distribute it better for that particular resolution. 
For example, if you set the default resolution to 600 dpi when 
your printer has enough memory to print at 2400 dpi, the frame 
buffer remains configured for 2400 dpi, which means that 
printer memory that could be better used somewhere else is 
being wasted.
