Q. What is the Lexmark Coverage Estimator?

A. The Lexmark Coverage Estimator uses an algorithm to count the picture elements (pixels) in the composite page to estimate the percent coverage for each colour, cyan, magenta, yellow and black. When the Coverage Estimator has been turned ON from the printer's operator panel Utility Menu, the calculated estimate is printed directly on to the page itself as it is printed. This handy tool allows you to quickly and easily determine the amount of cyan, magenta, yellow and black toner used on a given page, even in complex photographs and images. Understanding the cost of the page is then just a matter of a few simple calculations. The communication of content in many black and white documents can be improved for a nominal increase in cost when colour is added. Of course, the Coverage Estimator is only an estimate of the coverage on a given page. For each toner colour that is used, the minimum percentage reported will be two percent and reported values may vary from one printer to another. The accuracy of the estimates may be affected by the fullness of the print cartridges, environmental conditions, media type, application, application settings, driver, driver settings, and the content of the page. Lexmark makes no claim as to the accuracy of the estimated percents.

Q. Can I use banner paper and outdoor signage stock or media on this printer?

A. Yes, With the Outdoor Media and the optional tray, you can print signage for use outdoors. With the optional Banner Tray, you can print 8.27" x 36" or 210mm x 914.4mm banners easily.

Q. What happens when I use ColorSaver™ mode?

A. When ColorSaver is turned ON, text prints at a Toner Darkness setting of 4, while images and graphics print at a Toner Darkness setting of 1. This has the effect of making colour images and graphics lighter while retaining dark crisp mono text. It preserves the readability of documents while saving 50% on colour toner for images and graphics even if text, graphics, and images are all on one page.

Q. What are Black and White Lock, and Color Print Permissions?

A. Black and White Lock is a setting in the Setup Menu that prevents colour printing on that printer. All print jobs are completed using the black toner only. When this mode is enabled, it cannot be overridden by any other menu, driver, or application setting. This function simulates removing the colour cartridges and running the printer with only the black cartridge installed. Color Print Permissions allows an administrator to assign permission to a color printer by user ID.

Q. How does auto mode for Color Correction work?

A. Auto mode for Color Correction is ON when you receive your printer (default setting). Color Correction automatically selects the best colour correction mode from vivid, display or CMYK, based on the contents of the page you have sent to the printer. Auto mode is object, rather than page, oriented. So, it recognises object types such as fill, text or image, and looks at how colour was specified for that object, whether by RGB (red, green, blue); CMYK (cyan, magenta, yellow, black); gray, etc. It then applies the most appropriate colour correction for that object.
