    Making Changes to Printer Settings
    Making the print quality settings
    You can change the print quality of printouts through settings in 
    the printer driver. With the printer driver, you can make the print 
    settings by choosing from a list of predefined settings, or 
    customizing the settings.
    Choosing the print quality by using the Automatic setting
    You can change the print quality of printouts to favor speed or 
    detail. There are three levels of print output, Fast, Fine , and  Super 
    Fine . Fine  and  Super Fine  provide high quality, precise printing, 
    but requires more memory and slows the printing speed.
    When  Automatic  is selected on the  Basic Settings tab, the printer 
    driver takes care of all detailed settings according to the color 
    setting you select. Color and resolution are the only settings you 
    need to make. You can change other settings such as paper size 
    or orientation in most applications.
    For Mac OS X users
    1. Open the Print dialog box.
    2. Select  Printer Settings  from the drop-down list, and select the 
    Basic Settings  tab.

    Using the predefined settings
    The predefined settings are provided to help you optimize print 
    settings for a particular kind of printout, such as presentation 
    documents or images taken by a video or digital camera.
