Using Max Speed and Max Yield
Max Speed and Max Yield let you choose between a faster print speed
or a higher toner yield. Max Yield is the factory default setting.
• Max Speed—This lets you print in either black or color depending
on what is set in the printer driver. The printer prints in color unless
Black Only is selected in the printer driver.
• Max Yield—This lets you switch from black to color based on the
color content found on each page. Frequent color mode switching
can result to slower printing if the content of pages is mixed.
