There are three types of print modes, standard mode, fine mode, and high gloss mode. These are
discriminated by the resolution (600dpi/1200dpi) and process speed (full speed/half speed).
Setting the process speed to half speed and the video data transfer speed to ROS to twice the speed at
600dpi attains the resolution of 1200dpi.
