[Printer Settings]

Specify the settings for printer operation and for processing print data.
* Values in bold red text are the default settings for each item.
 
If the Operation Panel and Printer Driver Have the Same Settings
Priority is given to the printer driver settings. The operation panel settings are valid for operating systems such as UNIX printing where printer drivers cannot be used and when printing from mobile devices.

[Prioritize Driver Settings When Printing]

[Menu] [Function Settings] [Printer] [Printer Settings]
Specify whether the printer driver settings are given priority over the paper size and type specified in [Paper Settings] in the [Home] screen.
If you specify [On] in this setting, the machine will print from the paper source specified by the printer driver, regardless of the paper setting on the machine.
Also, if [On] is specified here and the size of the paper loaded differs markedly from that specified in the printer driver settings, you can specify whether printing proceeds anyway or printing is stopped and an error message is displayed.
* Note that specifying [On] in this setting when the paper loaded in the machine does not match the paper specified by the printer driver could lead to paper jams or printing errors.
* Several sheets of paper may be printed even if the machine is configured to cancel printing when an error message is displayed.

[Paper Size Override]

[Menu] [Function Settings] [Printer] [Printer Settings]
Specify whether the machine substitutes A4 size paper for Letter size paper and vice-versa when printing.
Specifying [On] in this setting means that if, for example, printing on A4 size paper is specified on the computer and there is only Letter size paper loaded, the job is printed on Letter size paper instead.
* Print settings are specified in an application or printer driver, but this setting can only be specified on the operation panel.

For more precise adjustment, you can adjust the levels of the three density areas in [Density (Fine Adjust)].
* Note that you cannot adjust the toner density if [Toner Save] is set to [On].[Toner Save]
* [Density] may not be displayed depending on the model, the installed options, and other settings.

[Binding Location]
[Menu] [Function Settings] [Printer] [Printer Settings] [Layout]
Specify whether the gutter will be on the long edge or the short edge when the printed document will be bound using a method such as staples.
Use this setting in conjunction with the [Gutter] setting to adjust the binding position and margins. [Gutter]
To bind the paper on the long edge, specify [Long Edge] in this setting.

To bind the paper on the short edge, specify [Short Edge] in this setting.

[Long Edge]
[Short Edge]
[Gutter]
[Menu] [Function Settings] [Printer] [Printer Settings] [Layout]
Offset the print position to adjust the width of the margin that will form the gutter.
Specify the offset width in 0.5 mm increments in the plus (+) or minus (-) offset direction, in accordance with the edge specified in [Binding Location]. [Binding Location]
If [Binding Location] is set to [Long Edge]
Specify the offset width by selecting a positive (+) value to bind on the left edge of the paper or a negative (-) value to bind on the right edge.
 
Specified as a positive (+) value
 
Specified as a negative (-) value
If [Binding Location] is set to [Short Edge]
Specify the offset width by selecting a positive (+) value to bind on the top edge of the paper or a negative (-) value to bind on the bottom edge.
 
Specified as a positive (+) value
 
Specified as a negative (-) value
-50.0 to 00.0 to +50.0 (mm)
[Offset Short Edge] or [Offset Long Edge]
[Menu] [Function Settings] [Printer] [Printer Settings] [Layout]
Offset the print position of text and images. Use this setting when the printed text and images are shifted towards one edge of the paper or when they extend beyond the print range.
Specify the offset width as a positive (+) or negative (-) value in 0.5 mm increments for each paper edge direction and print side.
To Offset Along the Short Edge (Horizontally)
Specify the adjustment width by selecting a positive (+) value to adjust to the right on the paper or a negative (-) value to adjust to the left on the paper.
To Offset Along the Long Edge (Vertically)
Specify the adjustment width by selecting a positive (+) value to adjust down on the paper or a negative (-) value to adjust up on the paper.

To print with highlighted contrast between light and dark areas
Specify [Color Tone]. This is useful for printing image files such as photos.
To print with smoother gradations and outlines
