Use the Resolution Enhancement
technology (REt) setting to produce print
with smooth angles, curves, and edges.
REt does not affect print quality if the
resolution is set to the FASTRES 1200 or
PRORES 1200 settings. All other print
resolutions benefit from REt.
ECONOMODE OFF*
ON
EconoMode is a feature that allows the
product to use less toner per page.
Selecting this option extends the life of the
toner supply and might reduce the cost
per page. However, it also reduces print
quality. The printed page is adequate for
printing drafts.
HP does not recommend full-time use of
EconoMode. If EconoMode is used full-
time, the toner supply might outlast the
mechanical parts in the print cartridge. If
print quality begins to degrade under
these circumstances, you will need to
install a new print cartridge, even if there
is toner supply remaining in the cartridge.
TONER DENSITY 1 to 5 Lighten or darken the print on the page.
The lightest setting is 1, and the darkest
setting is 5. The default setting of 3 usually
produces the best results.
