· High-speed printing (factory default: enabled): Printer response time (ACKNLG)
changes from 4ms to 0.9ms.

<<User-specific special menu (user-specific and service modes)>>
Selecting Custom Setting while pressing the Shift key will display the user-specific
special menu.
· Economy cleaning (disabled by default)
Disables the cleaning operations performed during the initial power-on after the AC
power input. This reduces the amount of ink consumed during service, or when the
printer is connected to the computer's interlocking power. However, this function is
disabled if at least 72 hours has lapsed from AC power input to power-on.
· Smear control (enabled by default)
Disables the smear control performed to prevent ink smearing during high-duty
printing on plain paper using the black BJ cartridge. By disabling the smear-
control and removing the ejected sheets one by one, throughput increases.
