Mono-Print Speed:
Auto Speed, Mono
34PPM, Mixed Speed,
Color Speed
Auto Speed: If the first page of a
print job is black and white, the
machine runs at 34ppm (pages per
minute). When a color page is
detected the machine slows down
to 26ppm for the rest of the job.
Mono 34PPM: This setting
operates in the same way as auto
speed, except that the machine
runs at 34ppm until a color page is
detected. To achieve this speed
the machine requires an additional
10-20 seconds to warm up and 30-
60 seconds to cool down when
switching to 26ppm for color
pages. This setting is therefore
most appropriate when the
majority of print jobs are entirely
black and white.
Mixed Speed: The machine
automatically switches between
26ppm for each color page and
34ppm for each black and white
page. When black and white pages
are printed, the 3 color drums are
automatically lifted to maximize
their working life. This operation
imposes a delay each time the
machine switches between color
and black and white printing.
However, the 30-60 second cool
down delay described for Mono
34ppm is avoided by limiting the
mono speed to 26ppm. This
setting may be preferred for
mostly black and white printing
with some color pages, or where
most print jobs are entirely color
or entirely black and white.
Color Speed: The machine runs
at 26ppm for all print jobs. This
setting is most appropriate when
the majority of print jobs are in
color.
