A. With this function the printer automatically recognizes different paper types and adjusts the printer settings for optimal print quality.


Q. What is the benefit of variable drop size?

A. Variable drop size dramatically increases the quality of the output. The 3pL drops are for highly detailed areas, while the 10pL drops provide better fill in solid color areas. The printer driver automatically switches between the drop sizes.
