NOTE: Some software programs convert text or graphics to bitmap images. In these cases, setting the color options for photographs also affects how text and graphics appear.

Neutral Grays

The Neutral Grays setting determines the method used for creating gray colors that are used in text, graphics, and photographs.

Two values are available for the Neutral Grays setting:

Black Only generates neutral colors (grays and black) using only black toner. This guarantees neutral colors without a color cast.

4-Colorgenerates neutral colors (grays and black) by combining all four toner colors. This method produces smoother gradients and transitions to non-neutral colors, and it produces the darkest black.

Print in grayscale

Select the Print in Grayscale or Print Color as Gray option from the printer driver to print a document in black and white.

Restrict color use

This product includes a Restrict Color setting. A network administrator can use the setting to restrict user access to the color printing in order to conserve color toner. If you are unable to print in color, see your network administrator.
