FUSER MODES |
| Configures the fuser mode associated with each |
PLAIN | *NORMAL | paper types. |
PREPRINTED | HIGH1 | Change the fuser mode only if you are experiencing |
LETTERHEAD | HIGH2 | problems printing on certain paper types. After you |
TRANSPARENCY | LOW | select a type of paper, you can select a fuser mode |
PREPUNCHED | REDUCE CURL | that is available for that type. The available selections |
LABELS |
| might include some or all of the following modes: |
BOND |
| NORMAL: Used for most types of paper. |
|
| |
RECYCLED |
| HIGH 1: Used for rough paper. |
COLOR |
| |
|
| |
CARDSTOCK>164 G/M2 |
| HIGH 2: Used for paper with a special or rough finish. |
ROUGH |
| LOW: Used for transparencies. |
|
| |
ENVELOPE |
| REDUCE CURL: Used to reduce paper curl. Turning the |
RESTORE MODES |
| |
| option on might decrease print quality. This is because | |
|
| |
|
| the setting reduces the amount of heat that the fuser |
|
| applies during the printing process. With the lower |
|
| temperature, toner might not completely bond to the |
|
| media that you are using. |
|
| The default fuser mode is NORMAL for all print media |
|
| types except transparencies (LOW), and rough paper |
|
| (HIGH1). |
|
| CAUTION |
|
| Do not change the fuser mode for transparencies. |
|
| Failure to use the LOW setting while printing |
|
| transparencies can result in permanent damage to the |
|
| printer and fuser. Always select Transparencies as the |
|
| Type in the printer driver and set the tray type at the |
|
| printer control panel to TRANSPARENCY. |
|
| When selected, RESTORE MODES resets the fuser mode |
|
| for each media type back to its default setting. |
|
| |
OPTIMIZE | There is no value to select. | |
|
|
|
HIGH TRANSFER | *OFF | Increases the intensity at which toner is transferred to |
| ON | the media. Set to ON for the following reasons: |
|
| You are using highly resistive, |
|
| papers. (HP recommends using only HP paper |
|
| and print media.) |
|
| A combination of low humidity and high |
|
| temperature is causing toner to scatter around the |
|
| characters (halo effect). |
|
|
|
MORE SEPARATION | *OFF | Decreases the possibility for jams in the print cartridge |
| ON | area under conditions of high humidity and high |
|
| temperature. |
|
|
|
RESTORE OPTIMIZE | There is no value | Returns to the defaults for the Optimize settings. |
