600 dpi
Select 600 dpi to print professional documents or any other documents requiring high
quality output. Print is dark and smooth. This setting uses more toner, and you may need
to replace the toner cartridge more often.
1200 Image Quality
1200 Image Quality is a nonbinary print mode. It actually varies the intensity, or the phys-
ical size, of each individual printed pel, rather than just turning the pel on or off. This lets
the Optra W810 show more smooth shades and detailed lines at 600 dpi.
1200 Image Quality setting affects all nonbinary data such as lines, graphics, and half-
tones. Binary data, such as most text, is not affected by this setting, allowing the printer to
handle its resources efficiently.
Print Darkness
Use Print Darkness to lighten or darken text and images on the printed page. The default
setting is Normal. For finer lines, higher definition grayscale images, and to conserve
toner, select Lighter or Lightest. For bolder line widths and darker grayscale images,
select Darker or Darkest. The darker the text, the more toner is consumed, reducing the
life of the toner cartridge.
PictureGrade
Set PictureGrade™ to On to improve the quality of grayscale printing at 300 and 600 dpi
resolutions. If you select Off, the printer uses the standard screening parameters. If you
select On, different default screening parameters are used to improve the print quality of
graphics.
