Drag the Brightness slider right to lighten, or left to darken the graphic images of the
print job.
You can also change brightness by entering a numeric value in the text box at the
right. The brightest setting is +100; the darkest is -100. Zero is the default mid-level
setting. Adjusting brightness is useful when graphic images are printing too dark or
too light. Text remains unaffected.
4
Drag the Contrast slider right or left to increase or decrease proportion of light to
dark in the graphic images of the print job.
A high contrast setting decreases the grayscale spectrum, making light grays lighter
and dark grays darker. A low contrast setting increases the grayscale spectrum,
making light grays darker and dark grays lighter.
You can also change contrast by entering a numeric value in the text box at the right.
The highest contrast setting is +100; the lowest is -100. Zero is the default mid-level
setting. Adjusting contrast is useful if graphic images are printing too gray, or too
black and white. Text remains unaffected.
The Settings options are:
Settings Option
Print text as black
Continuous tone
Description
Available with all of the Color mode options. Prints all
color text as black. This is useful when you want to
reduce the amount of data sent to the printer for color
print jobs, which can provide faster printing. It is also
useful for increasing the detail for light colored text
printed by monochrome printers. White text and image
colors are unaffected.
This option is unavailable in this printer model.
