Color Mode
Auto
The Auto feature, located in the Color Mode column on the Basic Features screen, enables the digital press to automatically sense if the original document is in color or black and white. If the original is in color, the digital press automatically uses Full Color. If the original is in black and white, the digital press automatically uses Black Only, which reduces color dry ink used.
Gold, silver, and fluorescent colors cannot be copied accurately. The dry inks (toners) do not contain the metallic particles necessary to accurately reproduce gold and silver colors or the fluorescent properties that are required to reproduce fluorescent colors.
With the Auto Color option, some very dark colors may be sensed as black and therefore copied as black. In these cases, select the Full Color option.
For the scanner to accurately sense the presence of color on a document during the prescan cycle, the color area on the document must be greater than 2 inches x 2 inches (approximately 50 mm x 50 mm). If the color area is less than 2 inches x 2 inches (approximately 50 mm x 50 mm), select the Full Color option.
