DENSITY
Use this menu item to adjust the relative lightness and darkness of
your printouts. There are five settings from which to choose, and the
more asterisks (*) in a setting, the darker the print. After changing the
setting, run the test print to check the new print density.

Note:
Increasing the print density increases toner consumption. If you
specify darker print, you may need to replace the imaging cartridge
more often.
