Print Quality

Choose one of the following print quality settings.

Normal (600 x 600 dpi)

600600 dpi. Recommended for ordinary printing. Good print quality with reasonable print speeds.

Fine (2400 dpi class)

2400 dpi class. The finest print mode. Use this mode to print precise images such as photographs. Since the print data is much larger than in Normal mode, processing time / data transfer time and print time will be longer.

NOTE

The print speed will change depending on the print quality setting you choose. Higher print quality takes longer to print, while lower print quality takes less time to print.

Color / Mono

Choose the appropriate Color/Mono setting:

Auto

The machine checks the content of your documents for color. If color is detected, it prints in color. If no color content is detected, it prints in monochrome. The total print speed may become slower.

Color

When your document contains color and you want to print it in color, select this mode.

Mono

Select this mode if your document has only black and grayscale text and/or objects. If your document contains color, selecting Mono mode prints your document in 256 levels of gray.

NOTE

Sometimes a document can contain color information even if it appears to be monochrome (for example, grey areas can actually be made from a combination of colors).

If either the Cyan, Magenta or Yellow toner reaches the end of its life while printing a color document, the print job cannot be completed. You can start the print job again in Mono mode, as long as black toner is available.
