Sets the time to hold the temprarily stopped job.

Wakeup Event

When this option is "On", you can wake up the machine from the power saving mode with the following actions:

  • loading paper in a tray

  • opening or closing the front cover

  • pulling a tray out or pushing a tray in

  • connecting a USB memory device (only for the models that support USB memory devices)

Auto Continue

Determine whether or not the machine continues printing when it detects the paper does not match the paper settings.

  • 0 SecThis option allows you to continue printing when the paper size you have set is mismatched with the paper in the tray.

  • 30 SecIf a paper mismatch occurs, an error message will display. The machine waits for about 30 second, then automatically clear the message and continue printing.

  • OffIf a paper mismatch occurs, the machine waits until you insert the correct paper.

Altitude Adjustment

Firmware Version

Paper Stacking

If you use a machine in a humid area, or you are using the damp print media caused by a high humidity, the print‐outs on the output tray may be curled and may not be stacked properly. In this case, you can set the machine to use this function to let print‐outs stacked firmly. But, using this function will make the print speed slow.

Auto Tray Switch

Determine whether or not the machine continues printing when it detects the paper does not match. For example, if both tray 1 and tray 2 are filled with the same size paper, the machine automatically prints from tray 2 after the tray 1 runs out of paper.

[Note]

This option does not appear if you selected Auto for Paper Source from printer driver.

Paper Substitution

Automatically substitutes the printer driver’s paper size to prevent the paper mismatch between Letter and A4. For example, if you have A4 paper in the tray but you set the paper size to Letter in the printer driver, the machine prints on A4 paper and vice versa.

Tray Protection

Decides to use or not use the Auto tray switch feature.

If you set tray 1 to On, for example, then tray 1 is excluded during tray switching.

[Note]

This setting works for copy or print jobs: It doesn't affect fax jobs.

Toner Save

Activating this mode extends the life of your toner cartridge and reduces your cost per page beyond what one would experience in the normal mode, but it reduces print quality.
