Fine-Tuning Print Quality
You can fine-tune the quality of your printer’s output by adjusting print
density and setting Resolution Enhancement technology (REt). Print
density and REt settings work together, so it is likely that when you adjust
one, you will want to adjust the other. To do so most effectively, see
“Harmonizing Print Density and REt Settings,” at the end of this section.
Adjusting Print Density
Print density is a measure of the darkness of print on the page. Print
density adjustments are made using the print density dial. The printer is
shipped with the dial in the center position.
Note
Print density is affected by the Resolution Enhancement setting you select.
The new print density setting stabilizes after you print about 20 pages.
The higher the print density setting, the more toner the printer uses. To
extend the life of your toner cartridge, choose lighter print density settings.
The steps to adjust print density are on the next page.
