EXPLANATION
If the first page of a print job is black
and white, the printer runs at 32ppm
(pages per minute). When a colour
page is detected the printer slows down
to 22ppm (ES2232a4) or 26ppm
(ES2632a4) for the rest of that job.
This setting operates in the same way
as AUTO SPEED, except that the printer
runs at 32ppm until a colour page is
detected. To achieve this speed the
printer requires an additional 10 – 20
seconds to warm up and 30 –60
seconds to cool down when switching to
22ppm (ES2232a4) or 26ppm
(ES2632a4) for colour pages. This
setting is therefore most appropriate
when the majority of print jobs are
entirely black and white.
The printer runs at 22ppm (ES2232a4)
or 26ppm (ES2632a4) for all print jobs.
This setting is most appropriate when
the majority of print jobs are in colour.
The printer automatically switches
between 22ppm for each colour page
and 20ppm for each black and white
page. When black and white pages are
printed, the 3 colour drums are
automatically lifted to maximize their
working life. This operation imposes
delay each time the printer switches
between colour and black and white
printing. However, the 30 –60 second
cool down delay described for MONO
32ppm is avoided by limiting mono
speed to 22ppm. This setting may be
preferred for mostly black and white
printing with some colour pages, or
where most print jobs are entirely
colour or entirely black and white.
