Print conditions
Twelve print modes are available on the printer, including dierent density levels for the same resolution.
* Print modes are limited on the LCIS model, for a total of eight modes.
You can also select two speeds for the carriage in each of the 12 print modes.
Select print conditions to achieve the productivity and quality that match the media and the application.
Generally use the printer in Standard print mode with Standard carriage speed.
Use the other mode to prioritize productivity or quality.
If you have changed the print mode...

Depending on the media, the media advance adjustment value may change for each mode.

Determine the media advance adjustment value manually if banding or other problems appear on the printout.

Print modes
Set the print mode for your desired resolution, number of passes, and density.
The lower the resolution and number of passes, the higher the productivity.
Increasing the resolution and number of passes the enhances the print quality reduces the visible grains.

Description
DRAFT 360 dpi x 180 dpi x DDP 3 1 Fastest print mode. Use this mode when prioritizing
productivity.
FAST PRODUCTION 360 dpi x 360 dpi x DDP 4 1 Mode that prioritizes productivity over quality.
PRODUCTION 360 dpi x 360 dpi x DDP 6 1 Mode that slightly prioritizes productivity compared to
standard mode.
PRODUCTION / HIGH
DENSITY
360 dpi x 360 dpi x DDP 6 1.5 The high-density mode that prioritizes productivity.
The ink may takes time to dry as a large quantity of ink is used.
Consequently do not use the TUR unit with this mode.
STANDARD 540 dpi x 360 dpi x DDP 6 1 This is the standard mode. Generally use this mode.
STANDARD / HIGH
DENSITY
540 dpi x 360 dpi x DDP 6 2 Productivity is more prioritized in this mode than in high-
density high quality mode.
The ink may takes time to dry as a large quantity of ink is used.
Consequently do not use the TUR unit with this mode.
QUALITY 540 dpi x 540 dpi x DDP 9 1.1 Mode that slightly prioritizes quality compared to standard
mode.
QUALITY / HIGH
DENSITY
540 dpi x 540 dpi x DDP 9 1.9 Productivity is slightly more prioritized in this mode than in
high-density high quality mode.
The ink may takes time to dry as a large quantity of ink is used.
Consequently do not use the TUR unit with this mode.
HIGH QUALITY 720 dpi x 720 dpi 12 1 Mode that achieves high-resolution quality.
HIGH QUALITY / HIGH
DENSITY
720 dpi x 720 dpi 12 2 Generally use this mode to print in high density.
MAX QUALITY 900 dpi x 900 dpi 15 1.5 Mode that achieves the best quality in high resolution.
MAX QUALITY / HIGH
DENSITY
900 dpi x 900 dpi 15 3.1 Mode that achieves the best quality in high resolution and
high density.
