Color Menu
The printer automatically adjusts color balance and density at
appropriate intervals, optimizing the printed output for bright
white paper viewed in natural daylight conditions. The items
on this menu provide a means of changing the default settings
for special or particularly difficult print jobs.
Notes:
Factory default settings are shown in
bold.
Settings with a dagger (†) only appear when the
appropriate option is installed.

when a new image drum or toner
cartridge is installed, and at intervals of
100, 300 and 500 drum counts. If a 500
drum count interval occurs during a
print job it will occur at the end of that
job, and will take up to 55 seconds. If
set to manual, this adjustment will only
be performed when initiated by the next
