If you have a high-resolution image
If your image has a resolution greater than the rendering resolution (which you can see in the driver's
Paper/Quality tab under Windows), print sharpness may be improved by selecting the Maximum
Detail option. This option is available only if you are printing on glossy paper and you have selected
Best print quality.

In the driver dialog (Mac OS Print dialog): select custom instead of standard print-quality
options, then check the Maximum Detail box.
●
On the Embedded Web Server's Submit Job page: select Basic settings > Print quality >
Custom. Set Quality level to Best, and Maximum detail to Yes.
NOTE: The Maximum Detail option results in slower printing with photo papers, but it does not
increase the amount of ink used.
