Event Log
This menu item lets the system support person print a limited set of the information contained in the Diagnostics
mode version of the printed Event Log. For a sample of a Diagnostics Menu Event Log printout, see
3-28. The limited Configuration log and the full Diagnostics log printed versions show the same
Log" on page
operator panel messages when they print and follow the same layout guidelines.
To print the Event Log:
Touch Reports from the Config Menu.

Touch Event Log.
2.

Note: If an optional parallel card is supported and installed, then after the Event Log prints, a separate report
that details the parallel card's history.

Color Trapping

Uses an algorithm to compensate for mechanical misregistration in the printer. When small black text or fine
black lines are being printed, the printer checks to see if they are being printed on top of a colored background.
If so, rather than remove the color from beneath the black content, the printer leaves the color around the edge
of the text or line. The hole in the colored region is reduced in size which prevents the characteristic white gap
that is caused by mis-registration.
This menu item applies to PCL 5e emulation, PCL XL, PDF, and PostScript.
Selections are Off and the values 1 through 5, with 2 as the default. Values 1 through 5 indicate the amount of
color remaining beneath the black content. Each setting increments by 1/600 of an inch. The less accurate the
registration setting, the higher the setting needs to be adjusted. Selecting Off disables color trapping. The
default value is 2.
To increase or decrease color trapping:
Touch Color Trapping from the Config Menu.
1.
2. Touch the left arrow to decrease the color margin or the right arrow increase the color margin.
Touch Submit.
3.
Submitting changes... is displayed.
You are automatically returned to the Configuration main menu.

Size Sensing

Turns the size sensing Auto or Off for print media input sources that have the ability to sense media sizes. The
default value is Auto.
To select size sensing for a tray that has that feature:
Touch SIZE SENSING from the Config Menu.
1.
Touch Tray 2, Tray 3, Tray 4, or Tray 5.
2.
Only those sources which support automatic size sensing are displayed.
