Select the hardware options sub-menu to set:

• Color density
Adjusts printhead energy level to darken color printing or adjust for paper variations. When printer prints high-
density color print lines (text or graphics), it automatically slows down. Factory setting is 100%.
WARNING: Choose a color density setting no higher than necessary to achieve acceptable color print density. Failure to
observe this rule may result in a printer service call and may void the printer warranty. Running at a higher energy level
will reduce the printhead life. Consult your CognitiveTPG technical support specialist if you have questions.
• Print density (monochrome papers only)
Adjusts printhead energy level to darken printout or adjust for paper variations. When printer prints high-density
print lines (text or graphics), it automatically slows down. Factory setting for the A799II is 100%.
Note: when printer is set to color paper, Print Density adjusts the overall darkness for both color and monochrome.
WARNING: Choose a print density setting no higher than necessary to achieve acceptable print density. Failure to
observe this rule may result in a printer service call and may void the printer warranty. Running at a higher energy level
will reduce the printhead life. Consult your CognitiveTPG technical support specialist if you have questions.
