Pure Black Text


[On]*, [Off]

This setting affects the printout for black (R=G=B=0% or C=M=Y=100%/Bk=N% or C=M=Y=0%/Bk=100%) text on a page. Under most circumstances it is preferable to leave this option set to [On].

[On]

Black colours generated by applications are printed using only 100% black toner. This means that the colour toner will not be misaligned since only one toner colour (black) is used.

[Off]

The black text is printed using CMYK toners based on the selected Output Profile setting. It is preferable to turn this option [Off] for some jobs.

NOTE
The mode is not available if you set [Resolution] to [1200 dpi].
Depending on the data to be printed, the Toner Save mode may not be applied even if you select [On] for [Pure Black Text].
If you select [On] for [Toner Save], very light or finely detailed images may not be printed clearly.
