[E] Precautions for setting
• When documents including a large amount of color pages are printed, set a smaller value for
<(08)9934> (S-ACS operation setting) so that the performance level and the consumption level of
supplies will be maintained in a better balance. However, when the documents to be printed include
more black pages, such as when MCV is 5k or more, the consumption of supplies related to Y, M
and C will increase because printing will be performed mostly in the "Color mode".
• When documents including a large amount of black pages are printed, set a larger value for
<(08)9934> (S-ACS operation setting) so that the consumption level of the supplies related to Y, M
and C will be lower. However, when the documents to be printed include more color and black
pages, the performance may not be affected.
• When the printing tendency of the user has changed significantly (e.g. Color rate changed from 80%
to 20%), the performance level or the consumption level of the supplies may also change. In this
case, check these levels after a specific period so that the most appropriate setting values can be
determined.
• The number of outputs in [Auto Color] are counted as follows:
Color outputs: Counted as color
Black outputs: Counted as black
• When the “Color mode” is [Auto Color], black pages are printed only with toner K and thus only the
toner K is consumed.

Determine each setting value with S-ACS level coefficients.
* Note: S-ACS level coefficients are only a reference and therefore they are acceptable if they fall within 3.
