Change copy speed or quality
The device provides three options that affect copy speed and quality:
•
Best (3 stars) produces the highest quality for all paper and eliminates the banding
(striping) effect that sometimes occurs in solid areas. Best copies slower than the
other quality settings.
•
Normal (2 stars) delivers high-quality output and is the recommended setting for
most of your copying. Normal copies faster than Best and is the default setting.
•
Fast (1 star) copies faster than the Normal setting. The text is comparable to the
quality of the Normal setting, but the graphics might be lower quality. The Fast
setting uses less ink and extends the life of your ink cartridges.
NOTE: Stars that indicate copy quality are available on some models with a two-
line display.
