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.

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.
