 Page Size

Allows you to specify a paper or envelope size for your print job from the available list. Displayed selections are dependent on the paper sizes supported for the selected paper source. For example, envelope sizes will not be displayed if the Source is set to Tray 2, because paper trays do not support envelopes. Envelopes can only be fed to the Digital Copier/Network Printer through the Bypass Tray.

The tray contains adjustment levers for length and width that must be set to match the paper size in the Tray. Printer Sensors will read this setting.

 Print Size

Allows you to increase or decrease the size of the printed output, relative to the selected Page Size. Print Size and Page Size share the same size selections.

•	To match the selected Page Size, select Same as Page Size.

Cover Mode

Cover Mode adds a front—or front and back—cover to the print job. The media for the cover can be drawn from a different source than the media for the print job. This supports different Media types for the cover, such as a heavier weight or a different color. The selected source for the cover must be set to the desired Media type at the Digital Copier/Network Printer’s operation panel. You can include a cover on a booklet when using Booklet Mode in the Layout tab. Print Onto allows you to specify where the cover will be printed.

Page Insert

Page Insert inserts a separator sheet between a selected number of printed pages. For instance, a different color insert could separate the major sections of a document. The media for the insert can be drawn from a different source than the media for the print job. You can specify printing on the insert pages.

Using Page Insert

Transparency Interleaving

Transparency Interleaving inserts a backing sheet between printed transparencies. A backing sheet, also known as an interleaf, helps keep transparencies clean and prevents the transparencies from sticking together. The media for the backing sheet can be drawn from a different source than the media for the print job. You can also print the same data on the backing sheet as on the transparency.

 Print Quality

Establishes the resolution of the print job in dots per inch (dpi). Higher settings produce higher resolution, more detailed printed images.

•	Select Custom… for additional Print Quality settings. Click the button to open the Print Quality Settings dialog box. Then select from additional settings under EcoPrint.

EcoPrint

The EcoPrint feature reduces the amount of toner placed on the printed page, extending the life of the toner cartridge, making it both economical and ecological. Because toner saturation is reduced, the entire image, text and graphics, will appear lighter on the printed job. EcoPrint will not increase print speed.

 Grayscale Adjustment

Allows you to adjust the appearance of the graphic images of your printed job by controlling the grayscale spectrum. The Grayscale Adjustment settings are useful if your graphic images are printing too light, too gray, or too dark. Text is unaffected by the Grayscale Adjustment settings.

The Brightness setting allows you to lighten or darken the graphic images of your printed job. A high Brightness setting will lighten the grayscale spectrum while a low setting will darken the grayscale spectrum. Adjusting Brightness is useful when graphic images are printing too dark or too light. Text is unaffected by the Brightness setting.

The Contrast setting allows you to control the levels of gray between black and white for the graphic images of your printed job. A high Contrast setting will decrease the gray levels, lightening light grays and darkening dark grays. A low Contrast setting will increase the gray levels, darkening light grays and lightening dark grays. Adjusting Contrast is useful if the graphic images are printing too gray or too black and white. Text is unaffected by the Contrast setting.

Allows you to specify how TrueType fonts are sent to the Digital Copier/Network Printer. The chosen method will affect the speed and quality of your print job. All of Kyocera’s device fonts are TrueType Fonts, therefore device fonts must not be disabled within the driver. Click Font Settings… to open the Font Settings dialog box.

Select Download TrueType Fonts as Outline under these circumstances:

•	For large documents. Print speeds will be greater because of the optimization features in this setting. The repetition of similar font data sent to the Digital Copier/Network Printer will be reduced, thereby increasing the print speed.

•	The print speed will not be increased when using Asian Fonts such as Japanese, Chinese, and Korean, because of the large amount of font information used for these particular fonts.

Select Download TrueType Fonts as Bitmap under these circumstances:

•	For smaller print jobs.

•	For very small fonts (point size 1-4).

•	For documents using Asian fonts, such as Chinese, Japanese, and Korean.

•	For older operating systems (Windows 3.x, 9x), which have fewer TrueType system Fonts. Non-TrueType fonts can only be downloaded as Bitmap.

•	For documents with user-defined fonts.

Select Substitute with Device Fonts under these circumstances:

•	If the print job contains system fonts that are not part of the Digital Copier/Network Printer’s device fonts. The substituted device font must be similar to the system font, or the document will print incorrectly.

•	To change a font found throughout a large document. This selection will substitute the old font with the desired font.

Click the Font Substitution… button to open the Font Substitution dialog box. In the System Fonts list, select the font in your document. In the Available Device Fonts list, select the font to substitute. Click OK.

Select Disable Device Fonts to overcome device font limitations when printing with AutoDesk® applications, Microsoft Office versions older than Office 2000, and Adobe applications. When Disable Device Fonts is selected, Device fonts will not appear in application font lists. Device fonts are normally visible in application font lists as printer icons next to the font name, unless there are equivalent system fonts, in which case the "TT" True Type icon remains. This option also improves portability of printable data; when cleared, device fonts may not match when sent to a different printer.

 Finishing Options

Allows you to collate, staple and sort and punch print jobs using the optional output devices.

Collate increases print speed and specifies the order in which the pages of a multi-copy job are printed or turning the printer off.

With Collate selected, the job’s data is rendered as page images in the Digital Copier/Network Printer’s memory after it has been downloaded the first time. The remaining job copies will print from this stored data, bypassing the process of sending down the job’s data from the computer to the Digital Copier/Network Printer with every copy.

With Collate selected, the driver will print the job set by set. With Collate cleared, it will print copies of each page by set. For example, with Collate selected, three copies of a five-page document would output as pages one through five in succession three times. The driver graphics image displays the grouping of collating and non-collating.

Note: The Collate function will not work with Adobe applications unless an optional Hard Disk is installed.

Staple binds selected groups of pages together for a multiple copy job. Select Collate to use the stapling function. The maximum number of sheets that can be stapled is 50 for Letter and A4, and 30 for A3, B4, Legal, and Ledger.

•	With the Finisher or Booklet Stitcher installed, check Staple, and select Upper Left, Upper Right, or Booklet to position the staples.

•	With the Booklet Stitcher installed and Booklet Mode selected in the Layout tab, the only stapling option is Booklet (Fold). The job is printed in booklet format and folded, with two staples placed in the binding.

Punch places multi-position punch holes for binding a print job. Punch requires an optional Finisher is installed and selected as a Device Option in the Device Settings tab. A Punch Unit setting of 2 Hole, 2 & 3 Hole (inches specification), or 2 & 4 Hole (metric specification), must be made. That selection then becomes available under Finishing Options.

Punch holes are 6.5 to 8.0 mm in diameter and are placed along either the long edge or short edge of the paper, approximately 8 mm from the edge. A graphic image in the Output tab displays the placement of punch holes.

Depending on the Punch Unit option selected, select 2-Hole, 3-Hole (inches specification), or 4-Hole (metric specification), punching.
