Select <Memory Media Print> in the Home screen. Home Screen

If <Screen When Mem. Med. Conn> is set to <On>, the operations screen for media connection are displayed when you insert a USB memory device while the Home screen is displayed. Selecting <Memory Media Print> displays the Memory Media Print screen.

You can select <Reset> to restore all the default print settings.

<Paper>

Select the paper source that contains the paper to use for printing.

When specifying other print settings, select <Close>.

<Number of Copies>

Enter the number of copies.

When specifying other print settings, select <Close>.

<2-Sided Printing>

You can select 1-sided printing or 2-sided printing.

	Prints on one side of paper.
	Prints on both sides of paper in such a way that the printed pages are opened horizontally when bound.
	Prints on both sides of paper in such a way that the printed pages are opened vertically when bound.

<2-Sided Printing> may not be available with some sizes or types of paper. Available Paper

<N on 1>

<N on 1> is not available for printing TIFF files.

You can select an "N on 1" pattern to print multiple pages of image data on one side of a sheet of paper.

	Does not apply N on 1.
	Prints two pages of image data on one side of a sheet of paper.
	Prints four pages of image data on one side of a sheet of paper.
(PDF only)	Prints eight pages of image data on one side of a sheet of paper.

For a PDF file, you can print 9 or 16 pages of image data on one side of a sheet of paper by using <N on 1> under <Set PDF Details>.

<Set JPEG/TIFF Details>

You can change the print settings for JPEG and TIFF images.

<2-Sided Printing>

You can make 2-sided printouts. Select the binding position.

<N on 1> (JPEG files only)

Prints data for multiple pages of image data on the same side of a sheet of paper. You can specify the number of pages to print on one side of a sheet of paper. For example, to print four pages on one side of a sheet of paper, select <4 on 1>.

You can select the type of original depending on the image to print.

<Photo Priority>
Gives priority to printing photo images smoothly.

<Text Priority>
Gives priority to printing text clearly.

You can select the printing method used to reproduce halftones (the intermediate range between the lighter and darker areas of an image) for optimal image quality.

<Gradation>
Prints images with fine gradation, such as digital camera images, with a smooth finish.

<Error Diffusion>
This mode is suitable for printing data with text and thin lines and the curved lines of CAD data, etc.

The stability of the texture and fixed toner may be reduced when <Error Diffusion> is used.

<Set PDF Details>

You can change the print settings for PDFs.

<2-Sided Printing>

You can make 2-sided printouts. Select the binding position.

Specify pages you want to print.

<All Pages>
Prints all pages.

<Specified Pages>
Specify the range of pages you want to print. Enter the desired value in each of <Start Page> and <End Page>, and select <Apply>.

When the specified page range does not match any of the pages of the PDF file, printing is not performed.

Specify whether to enlarge or reduce the original according to the print range of paper. Note that size enlargement/reduction will not affect the aspect ratio of the original.

Specify whether to extend the print range to the paper size.

If you set to <On>, part of print data may not be printed in edge areas or paper may be partly smudged depending on the document.

This setting specifies whether to print annotations in the PDF file.

<Off>
Prints no annotations.

<Auto>
Prints only those annotations that are specified to be printed in the PDF file.

Specify whether to use processing that standardizes the thickness of fine lines.

<On>
Standardizes the thickness of fine lines.

<On (Slim)>
Standardizes and slims down the thickness of fine lines. Lines may become too fine and/or indistinct.

<Off>
Does not standardize the thickness of fine lines. Depending on drawing position and the angle of the line, fine lines may be drawn thicker or may not be uniform.

You can print password protected PDF files by entering the password required to open them. Enter the password, and select <Apply>.

You can select the printing method used to reproduce halftones (the intermediate range between the lighter and darker areas of an image) for optimal image quality. You can make this setting for each of the types of image contained in one document. See <Halftones> for the description of the setting.

You can print black text of which color information is "R=G=B=0%," "C=M=Y=100%," or "C=M=Y=0%/K=100%," using only the K (black) toner. See <Pure Black Text> for the description of the setting.

Specify the printing method used when black text overlaps a colored background or figure. See <Black Overprint> for the description of the setting.

Select the source profile for color matching to print RGB data, according to the monitor you are using. See <RGB Source Profile> for the description of the setting.

This setting allows you to specify the simulation target to print the CMYK (Cyan Magenta Yellow blacK) data. The machine converts CMYK data into a device dependent CMYK color model based on this simulation. See <CMYK Simulation Profile> for the description of the setting.

Specify whether to convert gray data to CMYK (cyan, magenta, yellow, and black) data using the grayscale profile of the machine. See <Use Grayscale Profile> for the description of the setting.

Select the appropriate profile for print data. This option can be specified for each image type in one document. See <Output Profile> for the description of the setting.

Select the element to be prioritized when making color adjustment in <RGB Source Profile>. See <Matching Method> for the description of the setting.

Specify whether to overprint CMYK data, with overprint specified, as composite output. See <Composite Overprint> for the description of the setting.

Specify the way of printing color data in black and white. See <Grayscale Conversion> for the description of the setting.

Adjust the toner density to be used for printing. See <Density> for the description of the setting.

Selecting <On> prints in toner saving mode. Select <On> when you want to check the layout or other appearance characteristics before proceeding to final printing of a large job. See <Toner Save> for the description of the setting.

Specify the processing method used to reproduce gradation. <High 2> gives finer gradation than <High 1>. See <Gradation> for the description of the setting.

When fine lines or small text are faded, increase the density to give less faded print. See <Density Fine Adjustment> for the description of the setting.

Specify the resolution to process print data. See <Resolution> for the description of the setting.

Specify the mode to print data with a smooth finish. If the quality of the printout is not acceptable in <Mode 1> (default), try another mode. See <Special Smoothing Mode> for the description of the setting.

When the toner volume for text or lines exceeds the limit value of the machine, make a correction so that the toner volume does not exceed the limit value. See <Toner Volume Correction> for the description of the setting.

Specify the processing method used to reproduce lines. See <Line Control> for the description of the setting.

Configure a setting to print text or fine lines in bold. See <Width Adjustment> for the description of the setting.

Configure the smoothing setting to print the outline of graphics (e.g., illustrations created using applications) or text with a smooth finish. <Level 2> applies a stronger smoothing effect than <Level 1>. You can apply the setting separately for text and graphics. See <Advanced Smoothing> for the description of the setting.

Configure the smoothing setting to print the gradation (color density) of graphics (e.g., illustrations created using applications) or bit map images with a smooth finish. <Level 2> applies a stronger smoothing effect than <Level 1>. You can apply the setting separately for graphics and images. See <Gradation Smoothing> for the description of the setting.

Select <Start>.

Selecting <B&W> starts black and white printing. Selecting <Color> starts color printing.
