Eco printing

The Eco function cuts toner consumption and paper usage. The Eco function

allows you to save print resources and lead you to eco-friendly printing.

If you press the Eco button from the control panel, Eco mode is enabled. The

default setting of Eco mode is duplex printing (long edge), multiple pages per

side (2-up), skip blank pages, and toner save. Some features may not be

available depending on model.

• Double-sided printing (long edge) feature is only available for duplex

models (see "Variety feature" on page 9).

• Depending on the printer driver you use, skip blank pages may not work

properly. If skip blank pages feature does not work properly, set the

feature from the Easy Eco Driver (see "Easy Eco Driver" on page 291).

You can set the eco value from Device Settings in Samsung Easy Printer

Manager program.

• For Windows and Mac users, you set from Samsung Easy Printer

Manager > (Switch to advanced mode) > Device Settings, see

"Device Settings" on page 298.

Setting Eco mode on the control panel

• The settings set from the machine’s driver override the settings on the

control panel.

• Accessing menus may differ from model to model (see "Accessing the

menu" on page 30 or "Control panel overview" on page 22).

• It may be necessary to press OK to navigate to lower-level menus for

some models.
