Print Rasterization Mode
Supported versions
- On Windows since 90 or later
Description
Controls how Microsoft Edge prints on Windows.
When printing to a non-PostScript printer on Windows, sometimes print jobs need to be rasterized to print correctly.
If you set this policy to 'Full' or don't configure it, Microsoft Edge will do full page rasterization if necessary.
If you set this policy to 'Fast', Microsoft Edge will reduce the amount of rasterization which can help reduce print job sizes and increase printing speed.
Policy options mapping:
Full (0) = Full page rasterization
Fast (1) = Avoid rasterization if possible
Use the preceding information when configuring this policy.
