Adjustment"?

white?
(Windows)
Solution
Open the printer properties and click the [Auto
Configuration] button on the [Configuration] tab.
(Windows)
* If auto configuration cannot be executed, see the
Software Setup Guide.
Solution
If you are using the PCL printer driver, you can set the
resolution to [600 dpi] or [300 dpi] in the print settings at
the time of printing. When you need a very clear image,
select [600 dpi].
If you are using the PS printer driver, you can set the
resolution to [600x600 dpi] or [1200x600 dpi] (only for
black and white printing).
The resolution setting is selected in the [Advanced] tab
of the printer driver properties window.
Brightness and contrast can be corrected by performing
[Color Adjustment] on the [Color] tab of the printer
driver. These settings can be used for simple
corrections when you do not have image editing
software installed on your computer.
Ask your administrator to perform "Registration
Adjustment".
➞ System Settings (Administrator) > "Device Control" >
"Other Settings" > "Registration Adjustment"
If the colour tones are off, perform "Auto Colour
Calibration". (If the colours are still off after calibration,
repeating calibration may improve the results.)
➞ System Settings (Administrator) > "Printer Settings" >
"Auto Colour Calibration"
When colour text and lines are printed in black and
white, they may become faint and difficult to see. To
have colour text or lines (areas) that are faint converted
to black, select [Text To Black] or [Vector To Black] on
the [Color] tab of the printer driver. (Raster data such as
bitmap images cannot be adjusted.)
