Neutral Grays
The Neutral Grays drop-down menu controls the selection of a device-dependent color table that is
embedded in the printer firmware. The options are Black Only or 4-Color. You can adjust the Neutral
Grays setting independently for Text, Graphics, or Photographs.
●
Black Only. Generates neutral colors (grays and black) by using only black toner. This option
guarantees that neutral colors do not have a color cast. Black Only is the default setting for the
Text and Graphics components.
●
4-Color. Generates neutral colors by combining all four colors of toner, which produces smoother
gradients and transitions to non-neutral colors, and produces the darkest possible black. 4-Color
is the default setting for Photographs.
