The BJC-4200 Windows printer driver can interpret and translate the full spectrum of
colors, up to 16.7 million colors. When printing in color, there is a significant
increase in the amount of information that the driver has to interpret and translate.
When printing black ink only, the driver has only one color to interpret.
By decreasing the amount of colors that the printer driver has to interpret, you can
significantly decrease the time needed to translate the information. This will speed up
the overall printing process.
In the BJC-4200 Windows printer driver, choose the following settings. These
selections allow the printer driver to interpret and translate 256 colors, which will
increase your printing speed. However, your print quality will not be optimized.
