Setting Auto Exposure
Papers that are “less-white”, newsprint or ivory colored for example, can cause the printer to
put toner on the page so that the printed output has a background that matches the original. The
Auto Exposure setting removes the light or close to white color and only the image itself is
printed. Auto Exposure is turned on by default.

Adjusting Color Balance
The Color Balance control allows you to adjust the print color of your printer. Three density
settings exist for each of the four colors: yellow, magenta, cyan, and black. The Low, Medium,
and High density settings adjust the output based on the level of color saturation. Examples of
low density areas include faces and sky.

Adjusting the setting negatively lowers (lightens) the density, and adjusting the setting
positively will increase (darken) the density.
