User Settings on Color/Mono
Users can change the Color/Mono settings on the printer driver as follows:
Auto
The machine checks the content of the document for color. If color is detected anywhere
in the document, it will print the whole of the document using all the colors. In other words,
it will mix some of the toners to help achieve every shade detected in the document,
increasing the density of toner applied to the page. If no color content is detected, it will
print the document in monochrome.
The default setting on your machine is
Auto.
NOTE
The machine’s color sensor is very sensitive and may perceive faded black text or an off-
white background as color. If you know that your document is black and white and you want
to conserve color toner, select
Mono mode.
Color
Whether the document contains color or just monochrome, your machine will print the
document using all the colors.
Mono
Select this mode if the document has only black and grayscale text and/or objects. If your
document contains color, this mode prints the document in 256 levels of gray using the
black toner.
NOTE
If either the Cyan, Magenta or Yellow toner reaches the end of its life while printing a color
document, the print job cannot be completed. You can cancel your print job and choose to
start the print job again in
Mono mode, as long as Black toner is available.

Software (For HL-XXXX) or Software User’s Guide (For DCP-XXXX/MFC-XXXX).
