TRAY1 Set the mode to ALTERNATE if you are seeing marks on the
back side of the paper when printing from Tray 1. This sets the
product to initiate a clean sequence every time a job finishes
when the product is set for Any Size and Any Type for Tray 1.
ENVIRONMENT Set to LOW TEMP if the product is operating in a low-
temperature environment and you are having problems with
print quality such as blisters in the printed image.
LINE VOLTAGE Set to LOW VOLTAGE if the product is operating in a low-
voltage environment and you are having problems with print
quality such as blisters in the printed image.
TRACKING CONTROL Improves color stability by adjusting the bias voltage. Make
sure this mode is set to ON.
UNIFORMITY CONTROL Set to ALTERNATIVE 1 to improve uniformity on any paper
type. Set to ALTERNATIVE 2 to improve uniformity on normal
and light paper types. Set to ALTERNATIVE 3 when the other
alternatives do not correct the problem.
NORMAL PAPER Set to SMOOTH when printing on smooth paper of normal
weight.
HEAVY PAPER Set to SMOOTH when printing on smooth, heavy media types.
ENVELOPE MODE Set to REDUCED TEMP if envelopes are sticking due to
moisture in the envelop adhesive.
RESISTANCE MODE Set to Up to resolve print-quality issues caused by poor
secondary transfer in low-humidity environments with resistive
or rough surface media.
HUMIDITY MODE With glossy film, set to High when the product is in a high-
humidity environment and print-quality defects occur on HP
Tough Paper or Opaque film.
With transparencies, set to High when the product is in a high-
humidity environment and print-quality defects occur on color
transparencies on the first page of a print job.
With all other paper types, set to High when the product is in a
high-humidity environment and light density occurs on the first
page of a print job.
PRE-ROTATION MODE Set this feature to ON if horizontal banding occurs on pages.
FUSER TEMP MODE If you are seeing a faint image of the page repeated at the
bottom of the page or on the following page, first make sure
the Paper Type and Print Mode settings are correct for the type
of paper you are using. If you continue to see ghost images on
your print jobs, set the Fuser Temp feature to one of the
Alternate settings . Try the ALTERNATE 1 setting first and see
if it solves the problem. If you continue to see the problem, try
ALTERNATE 2 and then ALTERNATE 3. Using the
ALTERNATE 2 and ALTERNATE 3 settings might cause an
extra delay between jobs.
PAPER CURL MODE Use in high-humidity and high-temperature environments. The
REDUCED setting decreases fuser temperature and
increases the interpage gap.
RESTORE OPTIMIZE Return all settings to the factory-default settings.
