Use the following table to determine the components required to upgrade Phaser 8400 printers. Each kit that adds automatic two-sided printing includes a 128 MB memory DIMM, because the printer requires 256 MB of total memory to process duplex pages.

PHASER 8550, 8500, & 8400 OVERVIEW SECTION
Version 1.0

Use the following table to determine the components required to upgrade Phaser 8400 printers. Each kit that
adds automatic two-sided printing includes a 128 MB memory DIMM, because the printer requires 256 MB
of total memory to process duplex pages.
Features
Phaser 8400, 8500, and 8550 printers include a variety of features that are common to Xerox
Phaser printers. Refer to the
User Guide
or
Reference Guide
for a list of features that may be
selected using the printer driver, Control Panel, and CentreWare IS. This section describes the
Print-Quality Modes, factors that can reduce print speed, printing grayscale images, the “run
black” mode, and the Walk-Up Features.
Speed & Quality
The printer’s Print-Quality Mode establishes the maximum print speed and resolution.This topic describes
the two PCL Print-Quality Modes and four PostScript Print-Quality Modes for Phaser 8400, 8500, and 8550
printers. Recommended uses for each of the PostScript Print-Quality Modes are provided below:
Fast Color
- Fastest full-color mode, useful for many images, rapidly producing review
documents, previewing work, and rush jobs.
Standard
- General-purpose mode for full-color printing. Produces crisp, bright prints at high
speed. Recommended for vibrant, saturated color prints.
Enhanced
- Best mode for business presentations. Produces superior text resolution and smooth
color transitions. Enhanced is the factory default.
