    "Graphic" presumably means business graphics (lines, bars, graphs,
    and other computer-generated imagery), while "photo" means an actual
    photographic image.

    Some devices can be optimized for different types of output; e.g.,
    photo output might use a variable dot size mode on the device, while
    graphic output might use a single dot size mode for speed. Similarly,
    the resolution enhancements provided on laser printers are not all
    appropriate for all types of output.
