Color/Mono

Color

When your document contains color and you want to print it in color, select this mode. Only generic colors will appear on the printout (unless you also select color matching).

Mono

Select this mode if your document has only black and gray scale text and/or objects. Mono mode makes the print processing speed faster than color mode. If your document contains color, selecting Mono mode prints your document in 256 levels of gray scale.

Controlling the Color

To get accurate color matched output between the monitor and MFC, the color data should be adjusted for the MFC before printing.

Color adjustment is provided by both Windows® 95 and 98 and this printer driver. Using this feature, the color data is adjusted by Win95 and 98 ICM or the Brother MFC-7100 series printer driver and you can get colors more closely matching those appearing on the PC monitor.

When you are using a software application that has its own color matching engine, turn this setting off. The color matching system from that application is then used.

Windows® 95 and 98 have color matching engines called ICM - Image Color Matching in its Operating System. ICM uses a profile of each device (monitor, scanner, printer, MFC) to know the characteristics of individual devices and correct the difference between them. When this is set to off, the Brother MFC-7100 Series printer driver will do the color adjustment. At present, the ICM feature is not supported by all the monitor and printer vendors and if ICM does not have your PC monitor’s profile, then ICM cannot work correctly. Moreover, ICM takes a longer time.

When using Windows® 3.1 or 3.11, this selection is grayed (dimmed).
