Print Mode

Image quality is adjusted in balance with productivity according to the print mode (BW/FC), which differ in the maximum toner amount, i.e. bias needed for transfer and heat needed for fusing.

It is important not to mix up the adjustments, especially the items that have similar names like 1241: [Fusing Temperature].

The following table describes the relation between the pint mode and the image data sent from the color controller.
