You can change the resolution on your printer through the printer driver properties. Here's how:
-
Access Printer Properties: Right-click on the printer icon on your computer and select "Properties" (or "Printer Properties"). This opens the printer's properties window.
-
Open Printing Preferences: In the "General" tab of the properties window, you'll find a button labeled "Printing Preferences." Click on this button. This will open a new window with various printing settings.
-
Navigate to Advanced Settings: Within the Printing Preferences window, locate and select the "Advanced" tab (it may be named something similar, depending on your printer model).
-
Find and Adjust Resolution: In the Advanced tab, you should find a setting related to "Resolution," "Print Quality," or similar terminology. Select the dropdown menu or available options to choose your desired resolution. Higher resolutions generally result in sharper, more detailed prints, but may take longer to print and use more ink/toner.
-
Confirm Changes: Once you've selected the required resolution, click "OK" to save the changes in the Advanced settings window, and then click "OK" again in the main Printer Properties window. Your printer will now use the selected resolution for future print jobs.
Keep in mind that the exact steps and wording may vary slightly depending on your operating system (Windows, macOS, etc.) and your specific printer model and driver. Always refer to your printer's manual or the manufacturer's website for specific instructions if you have trouble finding the resolution settings.
