Menu Functions

1 This section describes the menu functions and how to access them with the touch panel display.

What Are Menu Functions?

The machine lets you specify settings, such as the number of copies and the paper size, to use when it receives a print job. These types of settings can be specified by the application sending the print job, or by the printer driver.

You can specify many settings which affect the printer function of the machine.

These include some settings that cannot be specified remotely from an application or from the printer driver. These settings are referred to as "Menu Functions."

The menu functions are set using the keys on the touch panel display and are grouped together according to the type of settings, which makes them easy to set.

When the same menu function setting can be specified by using the keys on the machine or by specifying the setting in an application or the printer driver, the setting from the application or printer driver has priority. These settings will override the settings made on the machine.

Touch panel display

The printer driver is included on the CD-ROM provided with the machine. For instructions on installing the printer driver, see Chapter 2, "Installing Software," in the Network Quick Start Guide.

NOTE

The contents of the Printer Settings are stored in the nonvolatile memory of the machine.

This means that the settings are stored even if the power to the machine is switched OFF, and therefore the settings will still be available when the power is switched ON again.

2-Sided Printing

On, Off *

This parameter selects one-sided or two-sided printing. When 2-Sided Printing is specified, the document is printed on both sides of the paper.

NOTE

• Two-sided printing can use either the paper drawer or the stack bypass in sizes of

12" x 18", 11" x 17", 12_5/8" x 17_11/16", LGL, LTR, LTRR, STMT, STMTR, EXEC,

A3, JIS-B4, A4, A4R, JIS-B5, JIS-B5R, A5, and A5R.

• Two-sided printing can use paper within the following range.

- 17 lb bond to 28 lb bond (64 to 105 g/m 2 )

• When printing on letterhead paper, or paper with a logo (such as a cover sheet), please note the following points:

- If the paper is fed from an internal paper drawer, the print surface of the first page should be face down.

- If the paper is fed from the stack bypass or the optional paper deck, the print surface of the first page should be face up.

■ Default Paper Type

Plain Paper*, Transparency, Heavy Paper, Recycled Paper, Color Paper, Ltrhead

(plain), Ltrhead (heavy), Tracing Paper, Labels, Pre-punched, and Envelope

This parameter sets the default paper type to be used for print jobs. This machine has internally defined optimal print modes for each specified paper type.

IMPORTANT

If you are printing from an OS that does not have a printer driver for the machine

(MS-DOS, UNIX, etc.), make sure that the paper loaded in the paper drawer matches the paper type specified in this setting. If the paper type specified in this setting is not available, an error message is displayed when the machine tries to print the job, and the machine stops. In addition, if a paper source has not been selected through the application, the machine automatically selects the default print settings for the paper type and size. See Chapter 4, "Customizing Settings," in the Reference Guide.

NOTE

• Use the following figures as a guideline to decide whether paper should be specified as Plain Paper or Heavy Paper.

- Plain Paper: 17 to 28 lb bond (64 to 105 g/m 2 )

- Heavy Paper: 28 lb bond to 90 lb index (106 to 163 g/m 2 )

• Canon transparency film is recommended for printing on transparencies.

• Canon label paper is recommended for printing on labels.

• Heavy Paper, Transparency, Ltrhead (heavy), Tracing Paper, Labels, and Envelope cannot be printed using two-sided printing.

Job Securing Time

1 hour * , 2 hours, 3 hours, 6 hours, 12 hours, and 24 hours

When a secured print job is sent to the machine, it is stored on the machine's hard disk, and a password must be entered before the job can be printed. This setting specifies how long the job will be stored before it is automatically canceled.

NOTE

• Even if the time period specified with this setting has not elapsed, the print job data is deleted if the main power to the machine is switched OFF.

• The password is set from the printer driver.

Timeout

Timeout (5 to 300 seconds), Off; 15 * seconds

When the Personality is set to 'Auto', the machine detects the control commands and starts printing in the appropriate mode. After all the data has been received and the end of the data is detected, the print mode stops. This processing of print data is called a job.

If the data for a job does not end, the machine does not start the next job even if it receives other print commands. In cases like this, use the Timeout setting to force jobs to finish if no data is received during the set period of time.

If Timeout is 'On', jobs can finish automatically. For example, if print data still remains in the machine because a form feed command cannot be processed, the paper can be fed automatically.

If Timeout is 'Off', jobs will not end automatically.

IMPORTANT

• If this function is set so that a job will timeout, the machine may end a print job before all the data has been received if it takes a long time for the PC to send the data. If this occurs, adjust the length of the Timeout setting.

• If [Off] is selected, you will not be able to make copies until print jobs that use the staple sort and punch settings have been completed.

• If you send data from a printer driver not compatible with the machine, and the end of job command is not received within the time set in this setting, the machine cancels the job, which may cause the data to be printed incorrectly.

NOTE

When a job is being processed, the Processing/Data Indicator on the control panel flashes.

Print After Completing RIP

On, Off *

RIP is Raster Image Processor, used for advanced graphical representation.

If Print After Completing RIP is enabled, the first page is printed after all the pages in the job have been processed.

Although it may take longer to print the first page, the remaining pages in the job will be printed more quickly. This is useful when several people are using the machine or when using another function, such as the Copy function, because the printing time for a print job is reduced.

IMPORTANT

Please note that the memory of the machine can store up to 3,700 pages. When you send a secured document to be stored in the memory to be printed at a later time, and the memory is full (already reached its maximum capacity), your document will not be stored. The memory may be full because the machine is being used for other functions (such as storing a document in an inbox or storing a form) or other jobs, which use memory space.

• Acceptable paper sizes for this option are 11" x 17", LGL, LTR, LTRR, A3, B4, A4,

A4R, B5, and B5R.

• Make sure to select compatible settings when using Staple Sort and Punch simultaneously. If conflicting settings are selected, such as the staple setting for the right side of the paper and the punch setting for the left, the printer will use neither

Staple Sort nor Punch.

• The machine automatically detects the size of the paper and punches two or three holes accordingly. (A3, A4, 11" x 17", and Letter papers are punched with three holes.)

• Holes cannot be punched in Transparency, Pre-punched, Tracing paper, Envelope, and Labels.

Personality

Auto * , PS, and PCL

This setting enables the machine to process data received from the host computer in the specified data format. Setting the Personality to 'Auto' makes the machine determine the type of data received from the host on a job-by-job basis. If you are printing from applications on a computer, we recommend that you use the 'Auto' setting.

NOTE

• If you find that the machine does not correctly switch to the appropriate personality when Personality is set to 'Auto', change the setting manually to match the data you are sending from the host computer.

• This function is not available when printing in UFR mode.

Mode Priority

None * , PS, and PCL

This setting determines which printer command language should be used if a job is received without a specified command language. Mode Priority is used when the Personality setting is set to 'Auto'.

None

This does not specify a preferred personality. If a job is received without a specified command language, the current personality is used. The default setting is 'None'.

PS

This assigns priority to the PS personality.

PCL

This assigns priority to the PCL personality.

Color Mode

Auto Detect * , Full Color, and Black and White

This setting enables you to set the color mode you want to specify when printing.

If [Auto Detect] or [Full Color] is selected, the machine automatically detects whether the page is reproduced using black (K) only or all 4 colors: cyan (C), magenta (M), yellow (Y), and black (K).

If [Black and White] is selected, data is printed in black (K) only, even if the original is in color.

NOTE

• If different color data is overlaid, the machine may not distinguish color from monochrome, even if [Auto Detect] or [Full Color] is selected. For example, although the printout looks monochrome, if different color data is overlaid, it is printed in full color mode, thereby using the color toner cartridges to print, not the black toner cartridge. Furthermore, if the data is created as color data in the application you are using, it is printed in full color mode, even though the data looks monochrome.

• If [None] is selected for the RGB Source Profile, and the machine receives a device-dependent color space definition that is color-processed by the host computer, gray data with the equivalent ratio of R to G to B is printed using black

(K) only.

Halftones

Text: Resolution, Gradation, and Error Diffusion *

Graphics: Resolution, Gradation * , and Error Diffusion

Image: Resolution, Gradation * , and Error Diffusion

This setting specifies how you print halftones.

Halftoning is used to print each process color at a different intensity, allowing millions of different color to be reproduced using only the four process colors.

Depending on the required intensity of a given color, toner is placed on paper in dots of different sizes. The grid of dots used for each toner color is called a screen.

Halftone screens are aligned to unique angles designed to eliminate interference patterns called moiré (a shimmering, wavy effect) that can arise with halftoning.

If [Resolution] is selected, a dither pattern that gives priority to the resolution of the images is used. This helps eliminate the appearance of jagged or uneven lines along the edges of objects and is best for printing standard text and graphics.

If [Gradation] is selected, a dither pattern that gives priority to the appearance of smooth changes in tone is used. This is best for reproducing images with delicate gradations or changes of tone.

If [Error Diffusion] is selected, an error diffusion method that gives priority to printing fine lines or text is used. This is best for printing images with small text or very fine lines.

Resolution Gradation

*The above dithering patterns are examples.

Error Diffusion

NOTE

A dither pattern creates the illusion of varying shades of gray or additional colors by treating areas of an image as groups of dots that are colored in different patterns.

Compressed Image Output

Output * , Display Error

This setting enables you to specify how the data should be treated if the data size of the print job is too large to be stored in the machine's internal memory.

If [Output] is selected, the data is highly compressed (so it is able to stored in the internal memory), and then the job is printed. However, the print quality may diminish.

If [Display Error] is selected, the job is canceled when the data size is too large.

NOTE

• Even if [Output] is selected and the data is highly compressed, the data may still be too large to be stored in the machine's internal memory. In this case, the job is canceled and an error is logged in the Print Log. (See Chapter 5, "Checking Job and Device Status," in the Reference Guide.)

This setting allows you to define the characteristics of the RGB profile (color data represented using the RGB (Red Green Blue) color model) that is appropriate for your monitor, used when printing color images or graphics in a document. This ensures that the machine uses the most appropriate color conversion when printing color documents using the CMYK (Cyan Magenta Yellow blacK) color model.

sRGB

This setting specifies the industry standard definition for generic Windows (PC) monitors. If you are using an sRGB compatible monitor, you can print out colors close to how they appear on your monitor.

Gamma 1.5, Gamma 1.8, and Gamma 2.4

These settings enable you to select the gamma correct level of the RGB data. The higher the value, the darker the printout.

None

When this setting is selected, device-dependent RGB data is converted into

CMYK without the machine applying the RGB color model.

2-32 PCL/PS Settings

Download Profile

This setting specifies the profiles you have downloaded from the host computer to this machine using NetSpot Resource Downloader. You can store up to 100 profiles.

IMPORTANT

• You may not be able to use all the profiles that are downloadable. If color data is printed in gray using a downloaded profile, check the downloaded profile for compatibility.

• If the machine receives data with a device-independent (CIE-based) color space definition, it is color-processed with the specified settings. Therefore RGB Source

Profiles are not applied by the machine.

• When a setting other than 'None' is selected, and the machine receives a device-dependent color space definition that is color-processed by the host computer, RGB Source Profiles are also applied by the machine.

NOTE

• Device-independent colors are not dependent on any particular device, such as a monitor, and are meant to be true representations of colors as perceived by the human eye. These color representations, called device-independent color spaces, result from work carried out by the Commission Internationale d'Eclairage (CIE) and for that reason are also called CIE-based color spaces.

• For more information on obtaining the NetSpot Resource Downloader, consult your local authorized Canon dealer.

• If a profile with the name of "None" is downloaded to the machine, the profile is not applied and the [None] setting on the menu is applied.

■ CMYK Simulation Profile

IMPORTANT

• You may not be able to use all the profiles that are downloadable. If color data is printed in gray using a downloaded profile, check the downloaded profile for compatibility.

• If the machine receives data with a device-independent (CIE-based) color space definition, it is color-processed with the specified settings. Therefore CMYK

Simulation Profiles are not applied by the machine.

• When a setting other than 'None' is selected, and the machine receives a device-dependent color space definition that is color-processed by the host computer, CMYK Simulation Profiles are also applied by the machine.

NOTE

• For more information on obtaining the NetSpot Resource Downloader, consult your local authorized Canon dealer.

• When [None] is selected, areas of dark color may be blotchy depending on the data.

• If a profile with the name of "None" is downloaded to the machine, the profile is not applied and the [None] setting on the menu is applied.

2-36 PCL/PS Settings

■ RGB Pure Black Process

On * , Off

This setting enables you to specify how black and gray data with the equivalent ratio of R to G to B should be processed when device-dependent RGB data is converted into device-dependent CMYK data using the RGB Source Profile of the machine.

If [On] is selected, black and gray data with the equivalent ratio of R to G to B is printed using the black (K) toner only, regardless of the selected Output Profile setting.

If [Off] is selected, black and gray data with the equivalent ratio of R to G to B is printed using CMYK toners appropriate for the selected Output Profile setting.

NOTE

• In combination with certain settings, black and gray data with the equivalent ratio of

R to G to B may be printed using the black (K) toner only, even if [Off] is selected.

The following are examples.

- When [On] is selected for Pure Black Text

- When [None] is selected for RGB Source Profile

- When [PS TR Normal] or [PS TR Photo] is selected for Output Profile

- When 'Prioritize Printing of Lines and Text' in the printer driver is selected

• If [None] is selected for RGB Source Profile, this setting is not applied.

■ CMYK Pure Black Process

On * , Off

This setting enables you to specify how monochrome data (C=M=Y=0) should be printed when the device-dependent CMYK data is processed using the CMYK

Simulation Profile of the machine.

If [On] is selected, monochrome data (C=M=Y=0) is printed using the black (K) toner only, regardless of the selected Output Profile setting.

If [Off] is selected, monochrome data (C=M=Y=0) is printed using CMYK toners appropriate for the selected Output Profile setting.

NOTE

• In combination with certain settings, monochrome data (C=M=Y=0) may be printed using the black (K) toner only, even if [Off] is selected. The following are examples.

- When [On] is selected for Pure Black Text

- When [None] is selected for CMYK Simulation Profile

- When [PS TR Normal] or [PS TR Photo] is selected for Output Profile

- When 'Prioritize Printing of Lines and Text' in the printer driver is selected

• If [None] is selected for CMYK Simulation Profile, this setting is not applied.

■ Pure Black Text

On * , Off

This setting affects the printout for black text on a page. Under most circumstances it is preferable to leave this option set to 'On'.

If [On] is selected, black colors generated by applications are printed using only

100% black toner. This means that black text will not exhibit halftone patterns

(such as moiré patterns), and the color toner will not be misaligned since only one toner color (black) is used. It also eliminates color bleed (the unintended overlaying or blending of two adjacent colors when text is printed).

Test

Pure Black Text 'On'

If [Off] is selected, you can print black text as four color black (using Cyan,

Magenta, Yellow, and Black toner) and using normal PostScript rendering. For some jobs, it is preferable to turn this option 'Off' (for example, if the page includes gradient fills that use black).

Test

Pure Black Text 'Off'

2-38 PCL/PS Settings

■ Black Overprint

On * , Off

When printing black text in combination with a color background or graphics, the text can be printed as part of the color background, or separately. This setting allows you to choose a specific way to print black text for such a job.

If [On] is selected, you can overprint black text. When this setting is used in combination with the Pure Black Text option, the machine first prints the full color background, then lays the black text on the top of the color background as 100% K

(black) toner. The result is a darker and glossier appearance for the black text.

Overprinting also minimizes the misalignment of colors and the halo effect that can appear around the edge of objects in the printed image.

Test

Black Overprint 'On'

If [Off] is selected, black text is printed with knockouts. The machine first prints the color background with the black text areas "knocked out" (no color is printed in the text areas). The black text is then printed in the knocked out area, filling in the areas not printed in color. The result is a flatter appearance for the black text.

2

Black Overprint 'Off'

NOTE

This function is not available if Pure Black Text is set to 'Off'.

■ Brightness

85 to 115%; 100% *

This setting adjusts the brightness of the overall image. The settings can be set between 85% and 115% in increments of 5%.

Selecting [85%] makes the image brighter, and selecting [115%] makes it darker.

NOTE

This function is not available if the Toner Save option is set to 'On'.

Some Basic Facts about Fonts

5

This section summarizes some of the basic facts you should know about fonts.

What Is a Font?

A font is a collection of letters and symbols used when printing a document. In general, a group of letters and symbols sharing a common design is referred to as a font. A font consists of the letters A to Z in both upper and lowercase, digits, and symbols.

The design that distinguishes one font from another is referred to as a "typeface."

Each font has a typeface name, such as Courier, CG Times, Letter Gothic, etc.

Attributes of Fonts

All fonts share some common characteristics, which are called "attributes." The typeface is one such attribute. The letters and symbols that are actually printed are determined by the values of a collection of these attributes.

Typeface

Stroke Weight

Style

The design of the letters (for example, Courier, CG Times, Letter, or

Gothic).

The thickness of the lines with which the letters are drawn (e.g. bold, medium, or light).

Whether the letters are drawn straight or at an angle (e.g. upright or italic).

Height of the letters (e.g. 10 point or 5 point).

Point Size

Pitch (cpi)

Symbol Set

Number of characters that are printed in one inch (e.g. 10 cpi, 12 cpi, or

Scale).

Character Width

(Fixed/PS)

Indicates whether the character width is set to "Fixed" or "Proportional."

Orientation Orientation of the characters on a page ("Portrait" or "Landscape").

The rule that defines the correspondence between the character codes coming from the host computer, and the letter forms that appear on the page (for example, Roman-8).

5-2 Some Basic Facts about Fonts

Typeface

Typeface refers to the design of the characters and symbols. The following figure shows an example of some typefaces.

Stroke Weight

Stroke weight refers to the thickness of the print. There are light, medium, and bold stroke weights. The printer function has medium and bold fonts available. The figure below shows an example of medium and bold printing.

5

Style

Style refers to the shape of the characters. The printer function can print in two styles: upright and italic.

With some fonts, like Letter Gothic, the term "Oblique" is used in the same manner as italics.

Some Basic Facts about Fonts 5-3

Point Size

Point size refers to the height of the character. Character size is measured in points.

One inch is divided into 72 points and 1 point is 1/72 of an inch (about 0.35 mm).

The printer function has bitmapped fonts and scalable fonts available. The bitmapped fonts are fixed in size, but the scalable fonts are not fixed in size.

Scalable fonts are freely scalable to any size you wish in 0.1 point increments. The following figure shows an example of various point sizes.

5

NOTE

See "Fonts and Scalable Fonts," on p. 5-6, for more information on bitmapped fonts and

scalable fonts.

Pitch (cpi)

Pitch refers to the number of characters that are printed in one inch. The unit is cpi

(characters per inch). As the number of characters per inch increases, the space between characters decreases; as the cpi decreases, the space between characters increases.

5-4 Some Basic Facts about Fonts

Character Width (Fixed and PS)

Each character has a different width from all the other characters in a font at a given point size. For example, "W" is a wider letter than "I." There are two ways to print letters of different widths: you can print all letters with the same spacing, regardless of their actual width; or you can change the spacing between letters to accommodate these different widths. Printing all letters with the same spacing is called "Fixed spacing," while changing the spacing to accommodate different letter widths is called "Proportional spacing."

Because the Fixed spacing method prints all letters with the same spacing, the number of characters which will fit into a given length is a fixed quantity which can be specified.

If the characters are printed with Proportional spacing, then the number of characters that will fit into an inch varies depending on the letters printed.

5

Orientation

Orientation refers to the direction of printing. The printer function can print using two different paper orientations: portrait and landscape. With portrait orientation, text is printed across the width of the paper (short edge), and with landscape orientation, text is printed across the length of the paper (long edge).

Some Basic Facts about Fonts 5-5

Symbol Set

When you print the letter "A," the host computer sends a code corresponding to "A"

(hexadecimal 41 is an example of this) to the machine. This code is referred to as the character code. The machine stores an internal representation of each character, and selects from among these character patterns the pattern corresponding to the received code. In this case, the machine searches for the pattern for "A," and prints it.

The process by which letters are printed

5

Computer Machine Character

Patterns

The machine uses a fixed rule to decide which letter or symbol corresponds to the character code sent from the host computer. For example, the letter "A" is printed for the hexadecimal code "41." The rule which determines the correspondence between character codes and printed letters is called the "symbol set."

Fonts and Scalable Fonts

There are two types of fonts available, and these fonts are distinguished by the type of data from which they are formed.

• Bitmapped fonts

• Scalable fonts

Bitmapped Fonts

Each character of bitmapped fonts are composed of a grid of small dots and stored in the machine's memory in dot matrix format.

5-6 Some Basic Facts about Fonts

Bitmapped fonts are fixed in size and specified by characteristics called "attributes," such as typeface, stroke weight, style and so on. Various types of bitmapped fonts are produced by the combination of these attributes.

Scalable Fonts

With scalable fonts, characters are freely enlarged or compressed from the one point to any size you wish in 0.1 point increments.

5

Some Basic Facts about Fonts 5-7

5

Standard Scalable Fonts (PCL)

With scalable fonts, characters are freely enlarged or compressed from one point to any size you wish in 0.1 point increments. (The maximum range of scaling depends on the size of the memory installed in the machine and the size of the paper used.)

The following scalable typefaces are included with the machine.
