    The explanations assume that the paper size and other basic settings have already been selected. For the basic 
    procedure for printing and the steps for opening the printer driver properties window, see the following section:
     Windows : BASIC PRINTING PROCEDURE (P.41)
     Macintosh : BASIC PRINTING PROCEDURE (P.48)
    SELECTING THE COLOR MODE
    This section explains how to select the color mode in the printer driver properties window. The following three 
    selections are available for the color mode:
    Automatic: The machine automatically determines whether each page is color or black and white and prints 
    the page accordingly. Pages with colors other than black and white are printed using 
    Y (Yellow), M (Magenta), C (Cyan) and Bk (Black) toner. Pages that are only black and white are 
    printed using Bk (Black) toner only. This is convenient when printing a document that has both 
    color and black and white pages, however, the printing speed is slower.
    Color: All pages are printed in color. Both color data and black and white data are printed using 
    Y (Yellow), M (Magenta), C (Cyan) and Bk (Black) toner.
    Black and White: All pages are printed in black and white. Color data such as images or materials for a 
    presentation are printed using black toner only. This mode helps conserve color toner when you 
    do not need to print in color, such as when proofreading or checking the layout of a document.
    .
    (1) Click the [Color] tab.
    (2) Select the Color Mode that you wish to use.
    In Windows, view printer driver Help for details on printer driver settings for each printing function.

    Even if the print result is black and white, the following types of print jobs will be counted as 4-color (Y (Yellow), 
    M (Magenta), C (Cyan), and Bk (Black)) print jobs. To be always counted as a black and white job, select [Black and 
    White].
     When the data is created as color data.
     When the application treats the data as color data even though the data is black and white.
     When an image is hidden under a black and white image.

    TWO-SIDED PRINTING
    The machine can print on both sides of the paper. This function is useful for many purposes, and is particularly

    PRINTER
    FITTING THE PRINT IMAGE TO THE PAPER
    This function is used to automatically enlarge or reduce the printed image to match the size of the paper loaded in 
    the machine.
    This is convenient for such purposes as enlarging an Invoice or letter size document to Letter or ledger size to make 
    it easier to view, and to print when the same size of paper as the document image is not loaded in the machine.
    The following example explains how to print an Invoice size document on Letter size paper.
    (1) Click the [Paper] tab.
    (2) Select the size of the print image (for example: 
    Invoice).
    (3) Select [Fit To Paper Size].
    (4) Select the actual paper size to be used for 
    printing (for example: Letter).
    (1) Select [Paper Handling].
    (2) Check the size of the print image (for example: 
    Invoice).
    To change the print image size, use the Paper Size 
    menu that appears when [Page Setup] is selected.
    (3) Select [Scale to fit paper size].
    (4) Select the actual paper size to be used for 
    printing (for example: Letter).

    PRINTER
    PRINTING MULTIPLE PAGES ON ONE PAGE
    This function can be used to reduce the print image and print multiple pages on a single sheet of paper.
    This is convenient when you want to print multiple images such as photos on a single sheet of paper, and when you 
    want to conserve paper. This function can also be used in combination with two-sided printing for maximum 
    conservation of paper.
    Using the PCL6 printer driver, you can print only the first page in the original size and print multiple reduced pages 
    on the subsequent sheets.
    For example, when [2-Up] (2 pages per sheet) and [4-Up] (4 pages per sheet) are selected, the following print 
    results will be obtained, depending on the order selected.

     In a Windows environment, the page order can be viewed in the print image in the printer driver properties window.
    In a Macintosh environment, the page orders are displayed as selections.
     In a Macintosh environment, the number of pages that can be printed on a single sheet is 2, 4, 6, 9, or 16.
