Troubleshooting

The color of your printouts is not 
what you expected



Make sure toner save mode is off in the control panel or the printer driver.



Perform the calibration. (See Calibration on page 95.)



Adjust the color by using the custom setting in the driver and by using the 
control panel. Colors the printer can print and colors you see on a monitor are 
different. The printer may not be able to reproduce the colors on your monitor. 
(See Color Correction on page 89.)



If colors appear in the printed gray areas, make sure there is a check in the 
Improve Gray Color check box of the printer driver. See Improve Gray 
Color in Settings Dialog on page 38 (For Windows

®

 printer driver), Advanced 

options on page 50 (For Windows

®

on page 59 (For Macintosh printer driver).



If shaded areas look dull, remove the check from the Improve Gray Color 
check box of the printer driver.



If a printed black graphic is too light, choose Enhance Black Printing mode 
in the printer driver. See Enhance Black Printing in Settings Dialog 
on page 38 (For Windows

®

 printer driver), Advanced options on page 50 (For 

Windows

®

 BR-Script printer driver) or Print Settings on page 59 (For 

Macintosh printer driver).
