MENU
The printer automatically adjusts colour balance and density at
appropriate intervals, optimising 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.

If set to AUTO, image density will be
automatically adjusted at power on,
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
