Optimizing print quality for media types
Media type settings control the temperature of your printer's fuser. You can change the settings for the
media that you are using to optimize the print quality.
The HP LaserJet 1020 printer provides a number of print modes that allow the unit to adapt more specifically
to the printer's media environment. The following tables provide an overview of the driver print modes.
NOTE: When using the CARDSTOCK, ENVELOPE, LABEL, and ROUGH modes, the printer pauses between
pages and the number of pages per minute decreases.
