Auto Error Solver:

Select an action to perform when a 2-sided printing error or a memory full error occurs.

  • On

    Displays a warning and prints in single-sided mode when a 2-sided printing error occurs, or prints only what the printer could process when a memory full error occurs.

  • Off

    Displays an error message and cancels printing.

Memory Device Interface:

  • Memory Device:

    Select Enable to allow the printer to access an inserted memory device. If Disable is selected, you cannot save data to the memory device using the printer. This prevents confidential documents from being scanned and saved illegally to a memory device.

  • File Sharing:

    Select whether to give write access to the memory device from a USB-connected computer or a network-connected computer.

Thick Paper:

Select On to prevent ink from smearing on your printouts, however, this may lower the print speed.

Quiet Mode:

Select On to reduce noise during printing, however, this may lower the print speed. Depending on the paper type and print quality settings you selected, there may be no difference in the printer's noise level.

Ink Drying Time:

Select the ink drying time you want to use when performing 2-sided printing. The printer prints the other side after printing one side. If your printout is smeared, increase the time setting.

Bidirectional:

Select On to change the print direction; Prints while the print head moves to the left and to the right. If vertical or horizontal ruled lines on your printout look blurred or misaligned, disabling this feature may solve the problem; however, doing so may reduce print speed.

PC Connection via USB:

Select Enable to allow a computer to access the printer when connected by USB. When Disable is selected, printing and scanning that is not sent over a network connection is restricted.
