###### Prohibit Test Page Printing

Disables to print the test page.
If this setting is enabled, [System Settings] → [List Print (User)] → [Printer Test Page] in "Setting mode" cannot be used to print test pages.

###### A4/Letter Size Auto Change

When printing an 8-1/2 x 11" (A4) size image, this setting allows A4 (8-1/2 x 11") size paper to be used if 8-1/2 x 11" (A4) size paper is not loaded.

###### Print Density Level

This lightens or darkens the print density of colour and black and white images. The print density can be adjusted to five levels.

###### CMYK Exposure Adjustment

Adjusts the density of cyan (C), magenta (M), Yellow (Y), and Black (K). The exposure of each colour can be adjusted to 17 levels.

###### Bypass Tray Settings

This is displayed only when a bypass tray is installed.

Item | Description
--- | ---
Enable Detected Paper Size in Bypass Tray | This is used to prohibit printing when the paper size specified for a print job is different from the paper size inserted in the bypass tray.
Enable Selected Paper Type in Bypass Tray | This is used to prohibit printing when the paper size specified for a print job is different from the paper size inserted in the bypass tray.
Exclude Bypass-Tray from Auto Paper Select | When [Auto] is selected for paper type selection, the bypass tray is excluded from the trays that can be selected. This is recommended when special paper is often placed in the bypass tray.

###### Job Spool Queuing

When this function is enabled, received print jobs are displayed in the spool queue of the job management screen. The jobs are moved to the job queue after they have been analyzed by the machine. Multiple jobs that have not yet been analyzed appear in the spool queue.
When this function is disabled, received print jobs are displayed in the job queue instead of being displayed in the spool queue. However, when an encrypted PDF job is printed, the job appears in the spool queue.

Example of a hexadecimal dump:

###### I/O Timeout

The I/O timeout can be set to any number of seconds from 1 to 999.
The I/O timeout function temporarily breaks the connection if the set duration of time elapses without any data being received by the port. After the connection is broken, the port is set to auto selection or the next print job is begun.

## Auto Colour Calibration

Performs automatic colour correction when the colour in colour copies is off.
The machine prints a test patch, the test patch is scanned, and the colour is automatically corrected.
After the [Execute] key is tapped and a test patch is printed, a message appears prompting you to begin automatic calibration.
Place the test patch on the document glass as shown below (so that the thin line at the edge of the page is to the left).

Lay copy paper (about five sheets) that is the same size as the test patch on top of the placed test patch, gently close the automatic document feeder, and tap the [Execute] key.

- Before executing Auto Colour Calibration, check to see if the registration adjustment is correct.
  If the registration adjustment is incorrect, perform "Registration Adjustment".
- If the colour is still off after performing Auto Colour Calibration, repeating Auto Colour Calibration once again may improve the colour.
