Select "Settings (Web version)" - [System Settings] → [Image Quality Adjustment] →

Solution
■ Check the settings of the printer driver.
When color text and lines are printed in black and white, they may become faint and
difficult to see. To have color text or lines (areas) that could become faint converted
to black, select [Text To Black] or [Vector To Black] on the [Image Quality] tab of the
printer driver. (Raster data such as bitmap images cannot be adjusted.)
■ Use the setting below to change the overall print density.
Select "Settings (Web version)" - [System Settings] → [Image Quality
Adjustment] → [Print Image Quality] → [Quick Image Quality Adjustment]. Set
default setting [2] to [3 (Sharp)] to increase the overall density, or [1 (Smooth)] to
decrease the overall density.
■ Change the width of specific printed lines.
Select "Settings (Web version)" - [System Settings] → [Image Quality
Adjustment] → [Print Image Quality] → [Line Thickness]. Increase the value of
default setting [5] to make the lines thicker, or decrease the value to make the
lines thinner. (Text and raster data such as bitmap images cannot be changed.)
