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 two levels of print output, 300 dpi and 600 dpi. 600 dpi provides high quality, precise printing, but requires more memory and slows the printing speed.

When Automatic is selected on the Basic Settings dialog box, 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.

Note:

The printer driver's online help provides details on printer driver settings.

Open the Print dialog box.

Select Printer Settings from the drop-down list, and select the Basic settings tab.

Click Automatic, then choose the resolution from the Resolution drop-down list.

Note:

If printing is unsuccessful or a memory-related error message appears, selecting a lower resolution may allow printing to proceed.

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.

Follow the steps below to use the predefined settings.

Open the Print dialog box.

Select Printer Settings from the drop-down list, and select the Basic settings tab.

Select Advanced. You will find the predefined settings in the list on the right of Automatic.

Select the most appropriate setting from the list according to the type of document or image you want to print.

When you choose a predefined setting, other settings such as Printing Mode, Resolution, Screen, and Color Management are set automatically. Changes are shown in the Summary drop-down list in the Print dialog box.

Saving your settings

Use the following procedures to save your custom settings.

For Mac OS X 10.1.x users, save your custom settings in Save Custom Setting. Your settings will be saved as Custom in the Preset drop-down list. You can save only one set of custom settings.

For Mac OS X 10.2 or 10.3 users, save your custom settings by Save or Save As in the Preset on the Print dialog box. Type a name for your custom settings in the name box. Your settings will be saved with this name in the Preset drop-down list.

Note:

The Custom Setting option is a standard feature of Mac OS X.

If you change any setting in the Advanced Settings dialog box when one of your custom settings is selected in the Advanced Settings list on the Basic Settings dialog box, the setting selected in the list changes to User Settings. The custom setting that was previously selected is not affected by this change. To return to your custom setting, simply reselect it from the current settings list.

Modifying the print layout

You can print either two or four pages onto a single page and to specify the printing order, automatically resizing each page to fit the specified paper size by using Layout printing. You can also choose to print documents surrounded by a frame.

Open the Print dialog box.

Select Layout from the drop-down list.

Select the number of pages you want to print on one sheet of paper from the drop-down list.

Click Print to start printing.

Note:

The Layout settings are a standard feature of Mac OS X.

Duplex printing

Duplex printing prints on both sides of the paper. You can do duplex printing manually. When printing for binding, the binding edge can be specified as required to produce the desired page order.

Note:

When printing on both sides of the paper, you need to clear the SkipBlank Page check box and select the Avoid Page Error check box in the Extended Settings dialog box. For details, see Making Extended Settings.

Does your Epson printer needs to be reset but you are not tech savvy enough to do it? Worry no more! In this tutorial, I’ll teach you on how to manually reset Epson printers without using any software. Yes, you heard that right. You can reset your Epson printer at the comfort of your home by simply following the steps below.

SIGNS THAT YOUR PRINTER NEEDS RESETTING

Adjustment program epson expression home xp-342

You will see a message that says “Waste ink pad is full“ or something like that.
The pink/pinkish button beside the power button is constantly blinking.
The pink/pinkish button beside the power button has a steady light (indication of error).

This tutorial will literally save you a couple hundred bucks. You don’t have to call a technician to do it for you and pay them every time you need to reset your printer. I have personally tried and tested this method on Epson L series such as L110, L210, and L200 (except L120) and I can say that is totally working. Just make sure that you will strictly follow the steps that I have written below.

How to Manually Reset Epson Printers

STEP 1: Make sure that your printer is turned on.

STEP 2: Press the power button (this will turn off your printer)

STEP 3:Once turned off, wait for five (5) seconds.

STEP 4:Press and hold the pink button. While holding on to the pink button, press the power button at the same time. This will turn on your printer & the green light (power indicator) will also start blinking. Once the green button stops blinking, release the pink button. You’ll now see the steady or blinking LED light on the pink button.

STEP 5: Press the pink button for about 10 seconds. After counting to ten, quickly release the pink button and then press it again for about two (2) seconds and release it again.

That’s it, you’re done! Notice that the LED light on the pink button has now stopped from blinking or from having a steady light.

If you’re having trouble following the steps above, just kindly watch the video below and follow the steps correctly. You may skip the first couple of seconds and proceed on 00:25 part.

Just in case you still failed to manually reset your printer using the method above, try this work around.

STEP 1:Press the power button (this will turn off your printer)
