Uniformity

 

Normal*

Use this setting to

 

 

Control

 

Alternate 1

correct uniformity

 

 

 

 

issues in print jobs.

 

 

 

 

Alternate 2

This may help correct

 

 

 

 

print quality issues

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Alternate 3

such as a mottled

 

 

 

 

appearance due to

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

poor transfer of toner

 

 

 

 

 

onto the page. The

 

 

 

 

 

default setting is

 

 

 

 

 

Normal. The

 

 

 

 

 

Alternate 1 setting

 

 

 

 

 

increases the T1

 

 

 

 

 

transfer bias and can

 

 

 

 

 

be used for any

 

 

 

 

 

media type. The

 

 

 

 

 

Alternate 2 setting

 

 

 

 

 

decreases the fuser

 

 

 

 

 

temperature and

 

 

 

 

 

reduces the

 

 

 

 

 

throughput. Use this

 

 

 

 

 

setting if you are

 

 

 

 

 

experiencing mottled

 

 

 

 

 

output due to poor

 

 

 

 

 

fusing on normal or

 

 

 

 

 

light paper types. The

 

 

 

 

 

Alternate 3 setting

 

 

 

 

 

applies the

 

 

 

 

 

Alternate 1 and

 

 

 

 

 

Alternate 2 settings

 

 

 

 

 

at the same time. Use

 

 

 

 

 

this setting if the first

 

 

 

 

 

two settings do not

 

 

 

 

 

correct the problem.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Tracking Control

 

On*

Normally, this setting

 

 

 

 

Off

should be set to On.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Registration

 

Normal*

Use this setting if you

 

 

 

 

Alternate

are having trouble

 

 

 

 

with color-planes

 

 

 

 

 

shifting or

 

 

 

 

 

overlapping on the

 

 

 

 

 

page. The default

 

 

 

 

 

setting is Normal.

 

 

 

 

 

Use the Alternate

 

 

 

 

 

setting if you are

 

 

 

 

 

seeing color mis-

 

 

 

 

 

registration problems.
