I would think that a lower fan speed could provide more dehumidification because by blowing less air over the cooling coils, the air might get get cooled to a slightly lower temperature, but you would be cooling less air.
That way you would be cooling less air, but removing more moisture from that air.
But a lot would depend on the design of the system also.
If a reduced fan speed results in reduced refrigerant flow thru the coil, then there would be no advantage to reducing the air flow.
And also, if at the higher fan speed the coil is already removing as much moisture from the air as possible, a lower temp coil wouldn't make any difference.

The air when cooled to the dew point releases the water from the air. The more air that is passed over the coils of the evaporator the better. So I would say the higher speed fan would do a better job. As the room gets down tl the colder setting a slower speed will usually maintain the temperature. If the door is opened a lot then a higher speed would be required.

high the colder the air the easier it will be for the dehumidifier to work.
Or maybe i don't get you question .. Is the dehumidifier build into the window ac? If so i would guess low.

At any speed that won't have the output fins freeze up.
