Using toner save mode
Toner save mode allows the printer to use less toner on each page. Activating this mode extends the life of your toner cartridge and reduces your cost per page beyond what one would experience in the normal mode, but it reduces print quality.
There are two ways to enable this mode:
Using the control panel button
Press Toner Save on the control panel. The printer must be in Standby mode; the Status LED lights green and Ready is shown on the display.
•If the button backlight is on, the mode is enabled and the printer uses less toner to print a page.
•If the button backlight is off, the mode is disabled and the printer prints in normal mode.
From the software application
You can set toner save mode from the printer properties window on your printer driver. See the Software section.
