Adjusting Print Quality

If gradation reproducibility has become so poor that the printed gradation differs markedly from the print data, make adjustments to improve gradation reproducibility.

If the density of the printing is significantly different from the original document, this adjusts the scan density to be closer to the original.

If the size of the image copied is slightly different from the original, fine adjustment is performed so that the printed size more closely matches the size of the original.

You can set <Waterdrop Pattern Prevention Mode> for when a splattered image, white patches, streaks, etc. appear on the halftone images of two-sided print jobs.

If toner is lightly applied to an unprinted area (white area), fogging may occur. Fogging may be corrected if you set <Fogging Prevention Mode>.

When printing on envelopes, if their flaps are glued (which they should not be) or toner fixation is poor, you can adjust the fixing level.

This mode improves the print result when the image is faint because insufficient toner is fixed to the paper.

If the density of the printing is significantly different from the original document, this adjusts the overall density of the printed material to be closer to the original, including filled areas, text, lines, and intermediate densities. This setting should mainly be used to adjust the maximum density.
