Changing The Special Settings Of The Printer - Canon LX-P1300 User Manual

Changing the Special Settings of the
Printer
Use the [Special Settings] to change the special settings of the printer as required. Normally, it is not necessary to
change the settings.
There are four special settings.
[ Ink Pre-fi re On The Paper]
A very small quantity of ink is constantly discharged onto paper at regular intervals in order to maintain the print
head performance. If this check box is unchecked, the printing time increases due to an extra process for print
head cleaning.
The default setting is "ON".
[ AIS Mode]
The AIS mode is a function to reduce consumption of the print head.
The default setting is "ON".
[ Low Temperature Print Mode]
Set the printer to [Low Temperature Print Mode].
When the printer is used at a temperature of less than 13 degrees Celsius (55 degrees Fahrenheit), the amount of
ink pre-fire on the paper is increased for printing. Therefore, when used in a location where the room temperature
easily fluctuates, the mode automatically switches according to room temperature when printing, resulting in
uneven print quality. Use this mode when you want to keep printing quality consistent.
The default setting is "OFF".
Use this function only when necessary, as it consumes more ink than other modes.
[ Prevent Paper Rubbing Mode]
When printing a high-density image, you can increase the gap between the print head and paper to prevent
paper rubbing.
Check the printed result, and select the [Prevent Paper Rubbing Mode] check box to prevent paper rubbing if
necessary.
The default setting is "OFF".
