Error Message Printout 2
You can choose whether the machine reports problems by printing an error page.
Selections are Printer Default, On and Off.
Improve Print Output 2
This feature allows you to improve a print quality problem.
Improvement Settings
• Reduce Paper Curl
If you choose this setting, the paper curl may be reduced. If you are printing only a few pages, you do
not need to choose this setting. We recommend that you change the printer driver setting in Media
Type to a thin setting.
• Improve Toner Fixing
If you choose this setting, the toner fixing on paper may be improved. If this selection does not provide
enough improvement, change the printer driver setting in Media Type to a thick setting.
Reduce Ghosting
If you are using the machine in a high humidity environment this setting may reduce ghosting on the paper.
Do not use this setting if the humidity is below 30% or ghosting may increase.
Note
This feature may not reduce ghosting for all types of paper. Before you buy a lot of paper, test a small
quantity to make sure that the paper is suitable.
Skip Blank Page 2
If Skip Blank Page is checked, the printer driver automatically detects blank pages and excludes them from
printing.
Note
This feature does not work when you choose the following features:
• Use Watermark
• Header-Footer Print
• N in 1 and 1 in NxN pages in Multiple Page
• Duplex (Manual), Booklet, Booklet (Manual) and Duplex with Binding Offset in Duplex / Booklet
• (HL-2240D only) Duplex with HQ 1200 in Resolution
