You can select the following items:
Color
Prints color documents in full color.
Color images will be printed using CMYK toner, Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black. CMYK are three primary subtractive colors.
If you want to adjust the print color, adjust the settings in the Advanced dialog box accessed from the Advanced button on the [Paper/Quality] tab.
Black and White
Prints everything, including color documents, in black and white. Black and White printing is faster than Color printing. To stop black and white areas being printed with CMYK toner, select [Black and White] in the printer driver as well as in the application.
If you use Windows 95/98/Me, this mode is called “Color/ Black and White:”.
