5.1.1 Operating the Machine in a Low Temperature Environment
It is best to run your machine at a room temperature that falls within the optimal
range (68°F to 80.6°F (20°C to 27°C)); however, if a low temperature
environment cannot be avoided, and depending on your job criteria (either print
speed or image quality), you can set the machine to account for the temperature
of the room in which the machine is located.
The Adjust Fixing for Natural Conditions mode in Device Management Settings in
System Settings (from the Additional Functions screen) enables you to run the
machine at a fixed speed at any ambient temperature, or adjust the machine to
run at a speed that maximizes your machine’s productivity or image quality
output results.
There are three settings in the Adjust Fixing for Natural Conditions mode that can
improve print speed or image quality based on your site’s environmental
conditions and job criteria.
[Fixing Priority]:
This mode is the default setting. Select this mode if
image quality has priority over print speed. The machine
calibrates the fixing temperature to adjust for the type of
media you select for the job, and the ambient
temperature. This mode provides the highest level of
quality, but has an impact on productivity.
[Standard]:
Select this mode to achieve the engine’s rated speed
when the machine is running at a room temperature
between 59°F and 68°F (15°C and 20°C), regardless of
the selected media.
[Productivity Priority]: If the room temperature is below 59°F (15°C), select this
mode to run the machine at a constant fixing
temperature. This mode achieves output results at the
engine’s rated speed, but because of the room
temperature, it has an impact on image quality.
IMPORTANT
•
It is strongly recommended that you make several test prints in each mode to
determine your desired image quality results.
•
The Adjust Fixing for Natural Conditions mode is only available if it is enabled in
the Service Mode.
