(1). An item message in the Message Display Windows ending with a “ “ means the last setting.
(2). The default settings are: Letter Size, Normal Print Quality, 100% ratio, 1 copy.
IMPORTANT!
PRINTER MEMORY
To make good use of QMS SC-200, it is recommended to install at least 4 MB of memory in your printer. If you want to print your document using Quality mode - 600 dpi as your Copy Quality mode, you need to add more RAM for your printer as using this feature requires more processing time and memory. See the following chart for printer memory recommendations.
3-3
It is strongly recommended that you refer to the following table to ensure a successful color copy.

2.The print quality is bad.
