How do I change the color mode from a Windows PC?
What is the benefit?
You can configure your printer driver to print in mono or color, you can also specify (with the PCL driver) 2 color printing. When priting in 2 color mode the printer can print at up to half the maximum print speed. For example, in 2 color mode the Brother HL-2600 printer can print at up to 12ppm. (maximum speed=24ppm/2=12ppm).
