or numbers greater than 9999) change to the last valid value that appeared in the box. The default
number of copies is 1.
Because you can set the number of copies you want from some software programs, conflicts can arise
between the software program you are using and the driver. In most cases, the software program and
the driver communicate, so that the number of copies set in one location (such as the program) will
appear in the other (such as the driver). For some software programs, this communication does not
happen and the copies values are treated independently. For example, setting 10 copies in the program
and then setting 10 copies in the driver will result in 100 copies (10 x 10) being printed. Set the number
of copies in the software program, wherever possible.

Image Color Management settings
This control lists the available Image Color Management (ICM) options used for printing color graphics.
ICM, a set of calculations for color matching, makes it possible for programs to adjust colors before
printing so that the color of images displayed on the screen more closely match the color of images
when printed. The following options are available:
●
ICM Method. The ICM Method setting specifies how to print your color graphics. The default setting
for ICM Method is ICM Disabled. The drop-down menu beside this setting contains the following
options:
●
ICM Handled by Host System. Click this option if you want the calculations for color matching
to be performed on the host computer before it sends the document to the MFP.
●
ICM Handled by Printer. Click this option if you want the calculations for color matching to
be performed on your MFP. In this case, a set of rules for mapping the colors will be created
and downloaded to the MFP (which must be Postscript language level 2 or higher). The MFP
will use these rules to adjust colors in the document.
●
ICM Handed by Printer using printer calibration. (PS Emulation Unidriver only) If you
want the calculations for color matching to be performed on your printer, click ICM Handled
by Printer using printer calibration. In this case, the set of rules for mapping the colors has
already been downloaded to the printer (which must be PostScript language level 2 or higher),
so they will not be created or downloaded again.
●
ICM Intent. The ICM Intent setting specifies how color images are created to produce the best-
looking image on the printed page.
●
If you are printing a document that uses fully saturated, bright colors, click Graphics to achieve
the best quality.
●
For photographs or pictures where the colors blend together, click Pictures to maximize the
contrast.
