Because downloading fonts takes time, selecting this option can speed up your printing time. When using Printer fonts, the printer will try to match the fonts used in your document to those stored in its memory.

Printer Setting: If you select this option, this feature is determined by the setting you've made from the machine. On: Select this option to allow the printer to use less toner on each page. Off: If you do not need to save toner when printing a document, select this option. Darkness: The option adjusts the toner density on print outputs. The values are Normal, Light, and Dark. For Dell 1130n, you change darknesss in the Printer Settings Utility. 3. Click OK or Print until you exit the Print window.
