Use the following procedure to change the print resolution for printers that support multiple resolutions.
Resolution is measured in the number of dots that can be printed per inch, or dpi.
The higher the value, the higher the resolution and detail in which the image is rendered. However, printing takes longer. For faster printing use lower resolutions.
Note:
If you print large-sized or high-resolution images, the printing might not be processed due to low memory. In this case, select a lower print resolution than the one you selected.
Open the printing preferences dialog box after creating a document in an application.
Click the Print Quality:Standard menu on the Detailed Settings tab.
In the Resolution: list, select a resolution.
After making any other necessary settings, click OK to close the printing preferences dialog box.
Start printing.
