<Special Processing>

If the print results on special types of paper are not satisfactory, the following settings may improve the quality of the printouts.
<Special Paper Processing>
When printing on the back side of printed paper, rough paper, or envelopes, the print results may be improved by adjusting the following settings.
<Manual Back Side Print (2-Sided Only)>
If printouts on the back side of printed paper are too light, select <On>. You can specify this setting separately for each paper source.
<Multi-Purpose Tray>
<Off>
<On>
 
<Drawer 1>
<Off>
<On>
If you set to <On>, image quality may be affected or a paper jam may occur when a certain length of time elapses after printing on the front side or depending on the ambient humidity.
<Rough Surface Paper Mode>
When printing on rough paper, especially when color images are printed too light, select <On>. You can specify the settings separately for each paper source.
<Multi-Purpose Tray>
<Off>
<On>
 
<Drawer 1>
<Off>
<On>
If you set to <On>, the printing speed may be slower or image quality may be affected.
<Env. Flap Closing Prevention>
If envelope flaps cling to the envelope bodies when printing, select <On>.
<Off>
<On>
If you set to <On>, toner may not be fixed sufficiently, resulting in faded printouts.
<Paper Wrinkle Correction>
Printouts may wrinkle depending on the paper to use. In this case, setting this item may solve the problem. The improvement effect is stronger with <Mode 2> than with <Mode 1>.
<Off>
<Mode 1>
<Mode 2>
<Mode 1> is effective for envelopes, and <Mode 2>, for envelopes and thin paper.
When <Mode 1> or <Mode 2> is specified, printed images may be blurry.
<Paper Curl Correction>
If the printed paper curls, set this item. The improvement effect is stronger with <Mode 2> than with <Mode 1>. First try with <Mode 1>.
<Off>
<Mode 1>
<Mode 2>
Setting a greater improvement effect may result in faded printouts or slower printing speed.
<Reduce Ppr. Sticking at Output> *
When performing 2-sided printing in color, paper may stick together at the output. Setting this item will slow down the printing speed of prints that may easily stick together, to reduce sticking.
<Off>
<Mode 1>
<Mode 2>
The improvement effect is stronger with <Mode 2> than with <Mode 1>.
<High Humidity Mode>
Print density may be uneven when the machine is used in an environment with high humidity. In this case, setting this item to <On> may solve the problem.
<Off>
<On>
If you set to <On> and use the machine in an environment with low humidity, printed images and text may be blurry.

<Off>
<On>
If you set to <On>, print density may be uneven.
<Rdc Condens. (Consec 2-Sd Prt)> *
If the printed images are faint due to moisture condensation when performing 2-sided printing, setting to other than <Off> may solve the problem.
<Off>
<On>
If you set to <On>, the print may be faded or the printing speed may be slower.
<Correct Void>
