This machine comes with the Automatic Color Selection mode, which recognizes whether an file is in color or black-and-white, and then automatically switches between the Full Color mode and Black mode. You can also manually switch between the Full Color, Black, Single Color, and Two Colors modes whenever necessary.

• For information on the modes which cannot be set in combination with this mode, see "Combination of Functions Chart."

• If color printing is performed after black printing, a message may appear indicating the machine is preparing for color printing. Please wait for a moment until the message disappears. Color printing will start when the message disappears.

• If you select [Sepia Tone] in the Adjust One-Touch Color mode, the color mode is automatically set to 'Single Color (Sepia Tone).'

• The default setting is 'Auto (Color/Black).'

• You can store the color mode in [Change Default Settings]. (See "Changing the Current Standard Settings.")

• As an example, the procedure to select and print a file stored in a mail box is explained in this section.

• Auto (Color/Black)

If the Auto (Color/Black) mode is selected, the machine automatically recognizes whether the file is in color or black-and-white. Color files are printed in the Color mode, while black-and-white files are printed in the Black mode.

• When printing CMYK files stored in mail boxes, only [Auto (Color/Black)] can be selected. (To print full color CMYK files, only [Auto (Color/Black)] can be specified. To print black CMYK files, [Black] can also be specified.)

• Black

The Black mode always prints in black-and-white regardless of whether the file is in color or black-and-white.

• Single Color

The Single Color mode enables you to make one-color prints.

• You can select Red, Green, Blue, Yellow, Magenta, or Cyan as the color.

• The Single Color mode is available for printing file from a mail box.

• If a black-and-white file is printed in the Single Color mode, it is counted as a color print.

• Two Colors

The Two Colors mode enables you to make two-color prints, composed of a color you specify, and black.

• You can select Red, Green, Blue, Yellow, Magenta, or Cyan as the color.

• Files comprised of black-and-white images stored in a mail box cannot be printed in the Two Color mode.

• The Two Colors mode is available for printing file from a mail box.

• If a black-and-white file is printed in the Two Colors mode, it is counted as a color print.
