Printer error messages override the PowerSave message. The printer will enter PowerSave mode at the appropriate time, but the error message will continue to be displayed.

Resolution Enhancement technology (REt)

The Formatter PCA contains circuitry for Resolution Enhancement technology (REt), which modifies the standard video dot data on its way to the Engine Controller Board to produce “smoothed” black-to-white boundaries. REt can be turned on or off from the Control Panel, or from some software applications. The default setting is medium.

REt settings sent from software applications or printer drivers override the Control Panel settings.

EconoMode

The EconoMode setting uses up to 50% less Toner than standard mode printing by reducing the dot density. However, EconoMode does not extend Toner Cartridge component life. EconoMode, which can be thought of as “draft mode” can be selected from the Control Panel (Print Quality Menu) and through some software applications and printer drivers. The default setting is off.

EconoMode does not affect print speed, memory usage, nor extend the Toner Cartridge’s life.
