Using The Automatic Setting - Epson Stylus Color 850 User Manual

Using the Automatic Setting

When Automatic is selected as the Mode setting in the Print
dialog box, the printer driver takes care of all detailed settings
according to the Media Type and Ink settings you make (see
page 5-4 for details on the Media Type setting). Usually, you
will never have to change this setting. However, if your
application program does not give you enough control over the
printout, you may want to experiment with the predefined
settings or make your own custom settings. See page 5-5 for
information on the predefined settings, and page 5-8 for
information on making custom settings.

Note:
Depending on the media you choose in the Media Type list while
Automatic is selected, a slide bar appears in the Mode box that lets
you choose Quality or Speed. Select Quality when print quality is
more important than speed.
Before printing, verify the Media Type and Ink settings as
described below because they also have an effect on the other
settings. You may also need to check the Page Setup dialog box
for other basic settings such as paper size. See page 5-17 for
information on the Page Setup dialog box.
