The Print Quality option allows the printer to operate at a lower rate of toner consumption and extend the life of your toner cartridges. This option also allows you to enable other installed quality features. Choices Normal: Normal toner use. Conserve Toner: Toner use is lowered. Smooth(600dpi): Requires MultiRes board. Fine Mode: Reduces chassis vibration during image processing. Default Normal Notes When Conserve Toner is selected the Toner Density option can be adjusted for the best acceptable print quality. Toner Density can be set from 1 to 15. Smoothing alters the size and position of dots that lie on the outer edges of an object by reducing the width of the laser pulse to a fraction of the full pulse width. This smooths jagged-edges in text, lines, and graphics and generally improves their print quality. Fine Mode reduces the media feed rate, allowing each sheet to complete the image transfer process before the next sheet is fed to the media path. This reduces chassis vibration that occurs during paper movement to a minimum level during image processing. Note: When printing halftones, smoothing is not recommended because it may introduce artifacts in the halftone or scanned image. For better results if smoothing is required for your documents in text and line art, use the basic option for halftone types.
