Toner is not fused well when
printing on thick paper or
OHP transparencies.

Thick (Duplex Backside)
] in the
paper type setting with the printer driver.
The color of the printout is
different from the color on
the computer's display.
The toner based color system used by the printer is dif-
ferent from the light based color system of the comput-
er screen.
Turning on [
Toner Saving
] can cause color irregularities.
Check the settings on the [
Color Setting
] tab and restore
the default settings.
The printout is different
from the image on the com-
puter screen.
Certain applications or image creation methods pro-
duce images that cannot be printed exactly as they ap-
pear on the computer screen.
With the IPDL-C printer driver, checking the [
Print as
Bitmap
] item on the [
Setup
] tab causes the print data to
be converted to image data before it is sent to the print-
er. This produces a printout closest to that displayed
on the computer screen.
Note
❒
This setting also causes large-volume print jobs to
take longer to print because of the required conver-
sion process.
