PRINT/STOP TESTThis item isolates print quality faults more accurately by stopping the printer
in mid-print cycle. Stopping the printer in mid-print cycle allows you to see
where the image begins to degrade. Stopping the printer in mid-print cycle
will cause a jam that may need to be manually removed. A service
representative should perform this test.

Changing printer control panel configuration settings
By using the printer control panel, you can make changes to general printer configuration default settings
such as tray size and type, sleep mode, printer personality (language), and jam recovery.
The printer control panel can also be accessed from a computer by using the Settings page of the
embedded Web server. The computer shows the same information that the control panel shows. For
more information, see 
Using the embedded Web server.
CAUTIONConfiguration settings seldom need to be changed. Hewlett-Packard recommends
that only the system administrator change configuration settings.

This item allows you to configure printer settings to optimize printer and cartridge performance for the
printing environment. If the printer is primarily used for black printing (over two-thirds of the pages are
black only), change the printer settings to  MOSTLY BLACK PAGES. If the printer is primarily used for
color printing, change the printer settings to  MOSTLY COLOR PAGES. If the printer is used for a mix
of black-only and color print jobs, it is recommended that you use the printer default of  AUTO. To
determine the percentage of color pages, print a configuration page. See 
Printer information pages  to
learn how to print a configuration page. The configuration page shows the total number of pages printed
and the number of color pages printed. To determine the percentage of color pages printed, divide the
color page count by the total page count.
