COLOUR MENU
The printer automatically adjusts colour balance and density at
appropriate intervals, optimising the printed output for bright white
paper viewed in natural daylight conditions. The items on this menu
provide a means of changing the default settings for special or
particularly difficult print jobs. Settings revert to their default values
when the next print job is complete.

Explanation
DENSITY CONTROL
AUTO
MANUAL
If set to AUTO, image density will be
automatically adjusted at power on, when a
new image drum or toner cartridge is
installed, and at intervals of 100, 300 and
500 drum counts. If a 500 drum count
interval occurs during a print job it will occur
at the end of that job, and will take up to 55
seconds. If set to manual, this adjustment
will only be performed when initiated by the
next menu item.
AUTO DENSITY
EXECUTE
Selecting this will perform the auto density
set up immediately.

PRINT PATTERN
Selecting this item prints the colour tuning
pattern to help you adjust the colour
balance.
