NOTE:
- The print speed may vary according to conditions, such as paper size and paper tray.
- When a smaller size paper than A4 or Letter is printed, the temperature on both edges of the
fuser unit is much higher than the temperature on the center of the unit where the paper is fed
depending on the setting or model. Therefore, the print speed is slowed in order to decrease the
temperature on the edges after the specified time, it is maximum print speed when you first start
printing.
- The actual print speed varies depending on the paper size.
