214 Enhanced Printing Options
Setting Item Description
Choosing unidirectional printing can improve printing
results if lines are printed crooked or images are
uneven. However, this takes more time than regular
printing.
Choose this option to make ne lines clearer in CAD
drawings or similar documents.
Choose this option to print intricate text more
distinctly.
Choose this option to counteract uneven printing.
When this mode is selected, less ink is consumed
than in regular printing, but the quality is diminished.
Select this mode if you want to conserve ink when
checking drawings, for example. Depending on the
Media Type and Print Quality settings, this mode
may not be available.
