ECONOMODE=OFF OFF
ON
Turn EconoMode on (to save toner) or off (for
high quality).
EconoMode creates draft-quality printing by
reducing the amount of toner on the printed
page.
Caution
HP does not recommend full-time use of
EconoMode. (If EconoMode is used full-time, it
is possible that the toner supply will outlast the
mechanical parts in the toner cartridge.)
Note
It is best to turn EconoMode on or off from the
printer driver or software application. (Driver
and software settings override control panel
settings.)
TONER DENSITY=3 1
2
3
4
5
Lighten or darken the print on the page by
changing the toner density setting. The settings
range from 1 (light) to 5 (dark), but the default
setting of 3 usually produces the best results.
Use a lower toner density setting to save toner.
Note
It is best to change the toner density from the
printer driver or software application. (Driver
and software settings override control panel
settings.)
