Settings Menu 2-232Printer Settings MenuColor ModeAuto Detect*, Full Color, and Black and WhiteThis setting enables you to set the color mode you want to specify when printing.If [Auto Detect] or [Full Color] is selected, the machine automatically detectswhether the page is reproduced using black (K) only or all 4 colors: cyan (C),magenta (M), yellow (Y), and black (K).If [Black and White] is selected, data is printed in black (K) only, even if the originalis in color.NOTE• If different color data is overlaid, the machine may not distinguish color frommonochrome, even if [Auto Detect] or [Full Color] is selected. For example,although the printout looks monochrome, if different color data is overlaid, it isprinted in full color mode, thereby using the color toner cartridges to print, not theblack toner cartridge. Furthermore, if the data is created as color data in theapplication you are using, it is printed in full color mode, even though the data looksmonochrome.• If [None] is selected for the RGB Source Profile, and the machine receives adevice-dependent color space definition that is color-processed by the hostcomputer, gray data with the equivalent ratio of R to G to B is printed using black(K) only.
