legibly

In readable fashion

In a way that can be read or deciphered.

Legibly describes writing or printing that is clear enough to make out: Please sign your name legibly.

The word usually applies to handwriting, where clarity varies, rather than to printed text, which is assumed readable unless something has damaged it.
