Canon Pixma MG3120 using lots of ink

[jreeseue]

Hello, I am printing to a Canon Pixma MG3120 from OS X 10.8 (Mountain Lion) and am noticing that there are very few options for me to change the print qualtity which is causing the printer to go through ink very rapidly. I mostly print text documents so the quality that I am interested in is usually very low. Does anyone have any ideas how to change this such that I can use less ink while printing items that don't require high quality. Thanks!

Hello jreeseue.

The 'Quality and Media' menu will allow you to set the quality setting to fast.  This would use less ink and help conserve the life of your ink cartridges.  Please click File and choose Print.  Then expand the dropdown menus to access the Quality and Media settings.
