Enhanced Printing time is 24 minutes per page for ANSI E-size (34 x 44 in. and its Metric equivalent) in full-color, full-coverage; provides smoother images with less banding.

For an overview of the PhaserMatch software, refer to PhaserMatch. For detailed information and instructions, refer to the PhaserMatch User Manual that was shipped with the printer.

You can view an approximate sample output of some color corrections at the bottom of the printer's startup page. Refer to Printing the startup page for more information.

Note: If your printer is networked and you have changed the front panel settings, make sure that you tell other users on the network. Printer settings affect all prints made with non-supported drivers.
