Print Resolu tion_________________________
General Information
Adjusting the resolution for a print job allows you to control the 
print speed and print quality of a job. Adjusting the resolution 
also allows you to improve your toner mileage.
When printing proofs or drafts,  you usually don’t need the best 
possible print quality. You usually do need the fastest possible 
print speed. Using a lower prin t resolution can accomplish 
these goals.
Lowering the print resolution can reduce the need for toner 
and the wear on the image drum . This increases the mileage 
of your toner and drum.
Raising the print resolution can maximize the image quality of 
a print job. You usually do this for final versions of documents 
or when printing images (photographs).
