Lexmark X463de User Manual

							Darkness
This option adjusts how light or dark your copies will turn out in relation to the original document.
Content
This option tells the printer the original document type. Choose from Text, Text/Photo, Photograph, or Printed Image.
Text—Emphasize sharp, black, high-resolution text against a clean, white background
Text/Photo—Used when the original documents are a mixture of text and graphics or pictures
Photograph—Tells the scanner to pay extra attention to graphics and pictures. This setting increases the time it
takes to scan, but emphasizes a reproduction of the full dynamic range of tones in the original document.
Printed Image—Used when copying halftone photographs, graphics such as documents printed on a laser printer,
or pages from a magazine or newspaper that are composed primarily of images
Sides (Duplex)
Use this option to select duplex settings. You can print copies on one or two sides, make two-sided copies (duplex) of
two-sided original documents, make two-sided copies from one-sided original documents, or make one-sided copies
(simplex) from two-sided original documents.
Collate
This option keeps the pages of a print job stacked in sequence when printing multiple copies of the document. The
factory default setting for Collate is on; the output pages of your copies will be ordered (1,2,3) (1,2,3) (1,2,3). If you
want all the copies of each page to remain together, turn Collate off, and your copies will be ordered (1,1,1) (2,2,2)
(3,3,3).
Options
Touching the Options button opens a screen where you can change Paper Saver, Create Booklet, Advanced Imaging,
Custom Job, Separator Sheets, Margin Shift, Edge Erase, Header/Footer, Overlay, Advanced Duplex, and Save as
Shortcut settings.
Paper Saver
This option lets you print two or more sheets of an original document together on the same page. Paper Saver is also
called N-up printing. The N stands for Number. For example, 2-up would print two pages of your document on a single
page, and 4-up would print four pages of your document on a single page. Touching Print Page Borders adds or removes
the outline border surrounding the original document pages on the output page.
Create Booklet
This option creates a stack of collated pages that, when folded, forms a booklet half the page size of the original
document and with all the pages in order.
Note: To use Create Booklet, you must have a duplex unit attached to the printer. Copying111

							Advanced Imaging
This option lets you adjust Background Removal, Color Dropout, Contrast, Mirror Image, Negative Image, Shadow Detail,
Scan Edge to Edge, and sharpness before you copy the document.
Custom Job
This option combines multiple scanning jobs into a single job.
Separator Sheets
This option places a blank piece of paper between copies, pages, and print jobs. The separator sheets can be drawn
from a tray that contains a type or color of paper that is different from the paper your copies are printed on.
Margin Shift
This option increases the size of the margin a specified distance. This can be useful in providing space to bind or hole-
punch copies. Use the increase or decrease arrows to set how much of a margin you want. If the additional margin is
too large, then the copy will be cropped.
Edge Erase
This option eliminates smudges or information around the edges of your document. You can choose to eliminate an
equal area around all four sides of the paper, or pick a particular edge. Edge Erase erases whatever is within the selected
area, leaving nothing printed on that portion of the paper.
Header/Footer
This option turns on the Date/Time, Page number, Bates number, or Custom text and prints them in the specified
header or footer location.
Overlay
This option creates a watermark (or message) that overlays the content of your copy. You can choose between Urgent,
Confidential, Copy, and Draft, or you can enter a custom message in the ”Enter custom text” field. The word you pick
will appear, faintly, in large print across each page.
Note: A custom overlay can also be created by your system support person. When a custom overlay is created, a
button with an icon of that overlay will be available.
Advanced Duplex
This option controls whether the documents are one‑sided or two‑sided, what orientation your original documents
have, and how your documents are bound.
Note: Some Advanced Duplex options may not be available on all printer models.
Save as Shortcut
This option allows the current settings to be saved as a shortcut. Copying112

brochures.
