print-quality

Generic Function

Package: common-graphics

Arguments: printer

Returns the print-quality value for the argument printer.

Possible values are :high, :medium, :low, and :draft (in order of decreasing quality) or an integer denoting the number of pixels per inch.

A lower quality may print more quickly.

print-quality is a property of the printer class.

This generic function is not setf'able. You must specify a value for this property when a printer stream is created with open-stream using the :print-quality initarg. (It can also be changed in the printer job control dialog when printing is initiated by a user, but the initial value in the job control dialog cannot be changed.)
