REDUCE CURL MODE
Configures the fuser mode associated with each paper
type.
Change the fuser mode only if you are experiencing
problems printing on certain paper types. After you select
a type of paper, you can select a fuser mode that is
available for that type. The available selections might
include some or all of the following modes:
● NORMAL: Used for most types of paper.
● HIGH 1: Used for rough paper.
● HIGH 2: Used for paper with a special or rough finish.
● LOW: Used for transparencies.
● REDUCE CURL MODE: Used to reduce paper curl. Turning
the option on might decrease print quality, because
the setting reduces the amount of heat that the fuser
applies during the printing process. With the lower
temperature, toner might not completely bond to the
media that you are using.
The default fuser mode is NORMAL for all print media types
except transparencies (LOW), and rough paper (HIGH1).
CAUTION: Do not change the fuser mode for
transparencies. Failure to use the LOW setting while
printing transparencies can result in permanent damage to
the printer and fuser. Always select Transparencies as the
Type in the printer driver and set the tray type at the
control panel to TRANSPARENCY.
When selected, RESTORE MODES resets the fuser mode for
each media type back to its default setting.
OPTIMIZE There is no value to
select.
HIGH TRANSFER *OFF
ON
Increases the intensity at which toner is transferred to the
media. Set to ON for the following reasons:
● You are using highly resistive, lower-quality papers.
(HP recommends using only HP paper and print
media.)
● A combination of low humidity and high temperature is
causing toner to scatter around the characters (halo
effect).
LINE DETAIL *OFF
ON
Set to ON to combat toner explosion on labels and recycled
media.
