[Resolution]:
You can print files with the contours of text data and other fine lines clearly reproduced. This mode is optimal for printing data containing a lot of text or fine lines.
[Gradation]:
This mode enables you to print in even finer detail than the Resolution mode. You may however experience a slight drop in the integrity of the image quality. You can adjust this setting to smoothly print shapes and graphs using gradation.
[Error Diffusion]:
This mode is optimal for printing text or very fine lines and for printing contours in CAD data.
NOTE
If you use the [Error Diffusion] mode, the stability of a fixed toner (the image quality) may decrease.
