With the Collate check box selected, one complete copy of your document will be printed and then

Print Quality2
You can choose the following print quality settings.
Normal (600 x 600 dpi)
600×600 dpi. Recommended for ordinary printing. Good print quality with reasonable print speeds.
Fine (2400 dpi class)
2400 dpi class. The finest print mode. Use this mode to print precise images such as photographs. Since 
the print data is much larger than in normal mode, processing time / data transfer time and printing time 
will be longer.
Note
The print speed will change depending on what print quality setting you choose. Higher print quality takes 
longer to print, while lower print quality takes less time to print.
 
Color/Mono2
You can change the Color/Mono settings as follows:
Auto
The machine checks the content of your documents for color. If color is detected, it prints in color. If no 
color content is detected, it prints in monochrome. The total printing speed may become slower.
Color
When your document contains color and you want to print it in color, select this mode.
Mono
Select this mode if your document has only black and gray scale text and/or objects. If your document 
contains color, selecting Mono mode prints your document in 256 levels of gray.
Note
• Sometimes a document can contain color information even if it appears to be monochrome (for example, 
gray areas can actually be made from a combination of colors).
• If either the Cyan, Magenta or Yellow toner reaches the end of its life while printing a color document, the 
print job cannot be completed. You can choose to start the print job again in Mono mode, as long as black 
toner is available.
