Increasing The Print Speed - Epson Stylus COLOR 300 User Manual

Increasing the Print Speed

Just as printing at a high resolution requires more processing
time, printing in color takes longer than printing in black
because the volume of data in a color document is much
greater. For this reason, it is important to be selective in your
use of color if you also require a faster print speed.
The following table shows the factors that inversely affect print
speed and print quality (increasing one will decrease the other).
