Color Mode

Use this function to select whether the document is printed in color or black and white.

The following table shows the tabs or menus where you can select this function.

Mac OS	[Color Mode] on [Printer Specific Options] in the print dialog box.
Mac OS X	[Color Mode] on the [Features x] tab on [Printer Features] in the print dialog box.

Color

Prints color documents in full color.

Color images are printed using CMYK toner: Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Black. CMYK represents the three primary subtractive colors.
If you want to adjust the print color, use the settings in the Advanced dialog box accessed from the Advanced button on the [Print Quality] tab.

Black and White

Prints everything, including color documents, in black and white. Black and White printing is faster than Color. To stop black and white areas being printed with CMYK toner, select [Black and White] in the printer driver as well as in the application.
