TIP If you consistently use front panel settings other than the default, consider establishing those settings as your new “defaults.” See “Set Defaults” on page 3-9 for more information.
3-4 Copyin g Number of Copies Y ou can specify the number of copies to make in either of two ways:  When “1 copy” is displayed on the front panel, press the Plus ( ) button.  Press the Number of Copies button, then press the Plus ( ) button. Cop y Qualit y The Copy Quality button changes the speed and quality of the copies you make. Y ou can choose from the following three copy settings:  Best produces the highest copy quality for all paper and eliminates the banding (striping) effect that sometimes occurs in solid areas. The Best setting copies more slowly than the Normal setting.  Normal delivers high-quality output and is the recommended setting for most of your copying. Normal is the default copy quality setting for most paper types, and is faster than Best.  Fast copies faster than the Normal setting, and the text is of comparable quality . Using Fast also cuts down on the frequency of replacing your print cartridges because it uses less ink. T o change the Copy Quality setting, press the Copy Quality button, the small button directly beneath the three quality settings (Best, Normal, Fast), until the light next to the copy quality setting you want to use is lit. Reduce/Enlar g e Options Using the HP Color Copier ’ s digital Reduce/Enlarge features, you can quickly and easily reduce or enlarge images to the exact size you want. NOTE Some Reduce/Enlar g e features let y ou specif y the exact percent reduction or enlar g ement y ou want to use. The Minus/Plus ( – ) si g ns next to the feature name let y ou know that this option is available. Press the Minus (–) or Plus ( ) button once to chan g e the percenta g e b y 1. Hold down the Minus (–) or Plus ( ) button to chan g e the percenta g e in increments o f 5.  Normal 100% makes a copy that is the same size as your original.  Entire 91% reduces your copy to ensure that all the edges are copied.
HP Color Copier User’s Guide 3-5  Auto Fit pre-scans the original to determine where its edges are. Auto Fit then reduces or enlarges the original to fit on the paper you are copying onto. When enlarging, Auto Fit increases the size of the copy to the largest size that will fit on the page without distorting the image, and centers the image on the page. NOTE Use Auto Fit or Entire 91% to sli g htl y reduce y our ori g inal and ensure that y ou cop y the entire pa g e. Entire 91% is a faster solution, because it uses a fixed percenta g e to make the cop y —no pre-scan is needed to calculate the size of the ori g inal. Auto Fit is an eas y solution—the Auto Fit feature calculates the reduction percenta g e for y ou.  Custom 100% (– ) lets you specify (using the plus or minus buttons) the exact reduction or enlargement percentage to use. Y ou can specify any percentage between 25% and 400%.  Poster 400% (– ) determines how to divide up the original image and enlarge each part to end up with an image that is up to 400% larger than your original. Y ou can specify a dif ferent percent total enlargement using the Minus ( – ) or Plus ( ) buttons. A poster may be created using up to 25 sheets of paper (5 sheets wide by 5 sheets long). For example, you can use Poster to create posters of your work to hang in your office or store. Use HP Premium Photo Paper for a glossy , near-photo-quality look. NOTE There is a minimum 1/4-inch overlap on all pa g es of the poster. This ensures that ke y elements on the pa g e do not g et cut off, and makes it eas y for y ou to paste the pa g es to g ether.  Clone 100% (– ) fits as many copies of the original as will fit on one sheet of the paper you are using. Y ou can specify a reduction or enlargement using the Minus ( – ) or Plus ( ) buttons. For example, you can use Clone to make extra copies of special photographs for family and friends. For glossy , near-photo-quality copies, use HP Premium Photo Paper .
3-6 Copyin g  Mirror 100% (– ) reverses the image of your original and makes a copy based on the percent reduction/enlargement you specify . Y ou can use Mirror to copy favorite photos or images onto HP Iron-On T-Shirt T ransfers. Then iron the image to make custom t-shirts, banners, and flags. Y ou can also use Mirror to copy presentation materials onto HP Premium T ransparency Film. Then, when you flip each film over to make your presentation, you can write on it and erase, without worrying about smearing the ink.
