[Special Print Mode B]
|
This option provides settings for solving the problems related to the printing quality. Specify them after fully reading respective description.
Normally, use the printer with this option set to [Off]. Change the setting for this option only if the following problems occur.
[Special Settings 1]:
When you print a document of highly contrasting density, the outlines of the text or images may whiten. You may be able to improve the problem by specifying [Special Settings 1].
Specifying [Special Settings 1] decreases print density compared to when [Off] is specified.
[Special Settings 2]:
If you mind the printing noise, you can print in the quiet mode which reduces the noise by selecting [Special Settings 2]. The quiet mode is enabled only when [Paper Type] in the [Paper Source] sheet is set to [Plain Paper] or [Plain Paper L].
If you print in the quiet mode, printing speed drops.
If the [Print in Quiet Mode] check box in the [Assisting Print Settings] dialog box in the Statusmonitor is selected, printing is performed in the quiet mode regardless of the setting for this option.

[Special Print Adjustment A]
|
Depending on the paper type or the operating environment, vertical streaks may appear on the printed paper. In this case, change the setting for this option.
Improving effectiveness for vertical streaks increases in the following order.
Even if you do not change the setting due to change in paper type or operating environment, this may also avoid vertical streaks appearing on the printed paper.
As improving effectiveness increases, print density decreases. This may also make outlines appear to be blurred or slightly jagged.
