The results of image refinement may be different depending on the types of characters and graphics you want to print.

Toner Save
[On], [Off]*
This setting enables you to set the Toner Save mode. Toner Save uses less toner to print documents and may result in longer toner life.
Line Refinement

This setting enables clearer printing of fine lines and small characters, or when you want to print characters and lines thicker.
Horizontal Line Refinement
[Off]*, [Level 1], [Level 2], [Level 3], [Level 4]
This setting adjusts the thickness of horizontal lines to produce fine lines and small characters more clearly. The higher the level number, the thicker the horizontal lines printed.

|
This setting is also available when the Line Refinement is set to [On] in the printer driver.
With this setting, horizontal lines are based on the direction in which the paper is fed.
Selecting [Level 2] or higher for this setting may result in abrupt changes in gradation with halftone images.

Vertical Line Refinement
[Off], [Level 1], [Level 2], [Level 3], [Level 4]
This setting adjusts the thickness of vertical lines to produce fine lines and small characters more clearly. The higher the level number, the thicker the vertical lines printed.

Resolution
[1200 dpi], [600 dpi]*
This setting specifies the resolution for printing.
Resolution is expressed in units of dpi (dots per inch), indicating the number of dots in one inch. The higher the value, the greater the resolution, allowing finer expression of detail.
[1200 dpi]
The outline of characters and diagrams can be finely printed. This is suited to printing data containing fine lines and small characters.
[600 dpi]
You can perform printing suited to general documents and tables.

IMPORTANT
|
|
If you select [1200 dpi] for [Resolution], you cannot specify the following settings: rotate collate, different paper sizes (LTR/LGL).
