MENU
This menu provides adjustment to suit a wide range of print media.
MONO-PRINT SPEED AUTO SPEED
MONO 32PPM
COLOR SPEED
MIXED SPEED
If the first page of a print job is black and white, the
printer runs at 32ppm (pages per minute). When a
color page is detected the printer slows down to 30ppm
for the rest of that job.
This setting operates in the same way as AUTO SPEED,
except that the printer runs at 32ppm until a color page
is detected. To achieve this speed the printer requires
an additional time to warm up and cool down when
switching to 30ppm for color pages. This setting is
therefore most appropriate when the majority of print
jobs are entirely black and white.
The printer runs at 30ppm for all print jobs. This setting
is most appropriate when the majority of print jobs are
in color.
The printer runs at 26 ppm for color pages and 30 ppm
for mono pages.

Selects the type of media loaded in this tray. This will
help the printer to adjust its internal operating
parameters, such as engine speed and fusing
temperature, to better accommodate the media to be
fed. For example, letterhead may benefit from a slightly
lower fusing temperature to ensure that its ink does not
offset.
