Print passes
The number of passes indicates how many times the cartridges must fire to lay down the
ink for a complete scan line. You may select multiple passes, so that on a single pass, the
jets fire only a fraction of the dots. If you're printing an image with heavy fill or shading,
setting the print mode to an option that lays down less ink can help prevent running and
bleeding. Note: When using the 2 x 4 cartridge set, a single pass fires ink from two
cartridges for each color.
Single pass is not recommended for graphic arts printing.
To change the number of passes
1 Choose Setup Menu/Print Mode Menu/Print Passes.
2 Choose Single, Two, Three, Four, Six, Eight or Ten for 1x4 cartridge sets
or Single, Two, Three, Four or Five for 2x4 cartridge set.
3 Press OK.
Carriage speed
Carriage speed lets you determine the number of dots per second that are laid down as
the carriage moves over the media.

2 Choose 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 or 10. (10 is the fastest.)
