Changing Color Modes
This machine comes with the Automatic Color Selection mode, which recognizes whether an file is in color or black-and-white, and then automatically switches between the Full Color mode and Black & White mode. You can also manually switch between the Full Color, Black & White, Single Color, and Two Colors modes whenever necessary.
As an example, the procedure to select and print a file stored in a mail box is explained in this section.
Auto (Color/B&W)
If the Auto (Color/B&W) mode is selected, the machine automatically recognizes whether the file is in color or black-and-white. Color files are printed in the Color mode, while black-and-white files are printed in the Black & White mode.
Black & White
The Black & White mode always prints in black-and-white regardless of whether the file is in color or black-and-white.
Single Color
The Single Color mode enables you to make one-color prints.
*1 File
*2 Print
Two Colors
The Two Colors mode enables you to make two-color prints, composed of a color you specify, and black.
*1 File
*2 Print
IMPORTANT |
You can select Red, Green, Blue, Yellow, Magenta, or Cyan as the color in the Single Color mode and the Two Colors mode. Files comprised of black-and-white images stored in a mail box cannot be printed in the Two Color mode. Files comprised of color and black-and-white images stored in a mail box can be printed in the Two Color mode. |
NOTE |
When printing CMYK files stored in mail boxes, only [Auto (Color/B&W)] can be selected. (To print full color CMYK files, only [Auto (Color/B&W)] can be specified. To print black CMYK files, [Black & White] can also be specified.) The Single Color mode and Two Colors mode are available for printing file from a mail box. If a file comprised of color and black-and-white images is stored in a mail box using [Store in Mail Box] of the Copy function or using Scan and Store function, and the file is printed in the Two Colors mode, black-and-white page is counted as a color print. If a file comprised of color and black-and-white images is stored in a mail box from a computer, and the file is printed in the Two Colors mode, black-and-white page is counted as a black-and-white print. |
