Increase print density/darkness (on a Brother HL-L2395DW)
Trying to increase the print density/darkness on my
Brother HL-L2395DW. Only half-successful way seems to be increasing resolution to its 1200dpi max (600dpi is way too light, and 300dpi is barely visible). Logged into the printer's webpage interface, which has separate pages for print, copy, scan. The copy pages actually have a darkness setting from -2 to +2, which I set to +2 but that predictably had no effect on printing. And the print pages have no density/darkness settings whatsoever, just resolution (and paper size, tray, duplex, all the usual stuff, but no darkness/density). And, of course, I've done all the usual shaking, cleaning, etc, of the toner, drum. But I don't think they're the problem (I actually have two of these printers, and they both behave identically). So, any general way to increase print darkness/density??? ....I was even thinking of running the pdf's I'm printing through convert (I'm running Slackware64 linux) or some other program that would modify them in some way such that the printer would just print them darker. But convert's man page doesn't seem to have any -switches that would do any such thing, as far as I could tell. And google didn't cough up anything else along these lines. -- John Forkosh ( mailto: where j=john and f=forkosh ) |
