Selecting A Print Mode - Canon BJC-70 User Manual

Selecting a Print Mode

Your printer incorporates several print modes that allow you to select print
quality, density of ink, and paper type. The control panel enables you to
select three of these print modes: HQ, Economy, and Fine.
If you are using Windows, the BJC-70 printer driver automatically adjusts
the print mode. If you are not using Windows, you may need to set the
print mode for your MS-DOS applications.
The print modes are:
HQ mode—Set the printer for High Quality mode when you want to
produce the best possible printed output. This mode is the default.
Eco mode—Economy mode uses the smallest amount of ink possible
while printing. This mode uses half the amount of ink used in HQ
mode. Economy mode is useful for draft printing.
Fine mode—Set the printer for Fine mode when printing on
transparency film, when printing grayscale images, or for printing clear
and distinct color images. This mode is also useful for printing clear
graphics that include high density areas, such as solid bars in bar
graphs.
To set the print mode, follow these steps:
