= SUMMARY =

Most 24-pin dot-matrix printers print letter-quality mode in one carriage pass. Some of these printers, such as the Panasonic KX-P1124 and the Star Micronics NX-2410, allow a “Quiet Mode” setting, which forces the printer to print letter-quality in two carriage passes. Although this method is much slower, it is also much quieter.

Some 24-pin printers, such as the Panasonic KX-P1624, always print letter-quality mode in two carriage passes.

Refer to the printer’s manual for more information on enabling and disabling “Quiet Mode” printing.
