Advanced Document Processing
The magicolor 5440 DL’s driver offers a means of activating additional
document handling functions, including:
† Printer-based electronic collation
† Watermarks
† N-up printing
Instead of transmitting a multiple page print job several times over the
network to get the number of “copies” required, simply select the copy
count in the magicolor 5440’s driver and send the job once. Called
printer-based electronic collation, this feature enables the printer to
deliver the number of sets required, with pages in proper order, without
bogging down the network.
Using the printer’s driver, users can also add common text watermarks,
such as “CONFIDENTIAL” and “DRAFT” to a document—or create a
custom watermark of their own. The driver includes selections for indi-
cating the watermark’s placement.
The magicolor 5440 DL driver also has
an N-up option that allows users to print
their multi-page documents with 2, 4, 6, 9
and 16 pages on a single sheet. Add a
border line and select the flow of the
pages across the sheet using easy to
understand driver settings.
N-up Printing: Print a multiple page document with up to 16 pages of that document on one sheet.

Consumables
Intelligent supplies...it’s a new concept in printing...and the
magicolor 5440 DL’s got it!
Intelligent, User-Replaceable Consumables
† Cyan, magenta, yellow and black (CMYK) all-in-one toner
† Transfer belt
† Waste toner box
The magicolor 5440 DL uses four (CMYK) all-in-one cartridges that
include toner and OPC in one easy to install, easy to store unit. Each
cartridge is color coded for error-free installation and features an intelli-
gent chip that stores information on toner levels for accurate supplies
monitoring (See “Supplies Monitoring” for further details).
The magicolor 5440 DL uses an innovative toner technology, KONICA
MINOLTA’s Simitri Polymerized Toner, to produce exceptional output. It’s
composed of smaller particles that are more uniform in size and shape
than conventional toner to create finer lines, better halftones, and
improved image quality. It also has a higher transfer efficiency then reg-
ular toner, further contributing to output quality while producing less
waste toner. A lubricant encapsulated within the toner particles elimi-
nates the need for fuser oil, meaning users have one less consumable
to buy.
Four cartridges include toner and OPC in one unit.
The printer’s waste toner box captures
excess toner from the printing process
and prevents engine damage from loose
toner particles.
The magicolor 5440 DL also has a
transfer belt that takes the image
composed of toner and transfers it
to the print media as the media
passes through the engine.

Consumable Yields
Consumable yields are expressed as a number of letter/A4 pages @ 5%
coverage. Actual consumable life depends on variables such as page
coverage, page size, media type, continuous or intermittent printing,
duplexing, number of color planes, ambient temperature, and humidity.
The magicolor 5440 DL includes starter cartridges that hold enough
toner for an average of 3,000 prints (5% coverage, letter-size, contin-
uous printing). It also includes a full-capacity transfer belt unit and waste
toner box.
Replacement supplies offer the following yields:
Consumable

*Based on 5% letter/A4-size, single-sided page coverage
Optimal consumables life is achieved with continuous printing (three pages or more per
job). Intermittent printing (one page per job) will reduce consumable life as stated.

Supplies Monitoring
The magicolor 5440 DL uses its intelligent all-in-one cartridges to com-
municate remaining supply levels to consumers. With a smart tracking
chip installed, it accurately measures remaining toner and displays its
findings in four locations (see below) for evaluation.
This feature is both practical and convenient as it helps a user deter-
mine if there is enough toner remaining to complete job. It’s also helpful
in stocking supplies, enabling a company to keep a just-in-time inven-
tory of supplies on hand.
To view remaining supply levels, users have four options:
† Front keypad
† Configuration page
† Status Display
† PageScope Web Connection
The printer’s front keypad provides the quickest method for reviewing
supply levels.
The quickest way to review supply levels is through
the printer’s front keypad.
From the front keypad, users can access the menu system to print a
Configuration Page. This sheet details information on all supplies as
well as showing the number of pages printed, options installed, network
setup, and engine settings.
A third method for reviewing how much toner remains in each cartridge
is with the Status Display. This handy utility resides on the desktop and,
by simply selecting Display > Supplies Status, shows this information in
a full-color, gas gauge-style graphic.

Color Control
Get great color without great effort.
The magicolor 5440 DL is designed with the color novice in mind. The
printer features an internal color matching system that automatically
selects the proper color model based on the specific elements on any
given page. For more professional color users, the printer supports ICC
device profiles to more intricately adjust color. Lastly, the magicolor
5440 DL includes enhanced Automatic Image Density Control (eAIDC)
so the printer will produce consistent color each and every print.
Automatic ICC-Based Color Matching
Resident within the magicolor 5440 DL’s printer driver is an ICC-based
color matching system that provides single-button controls for automatic
correction of color files. Using built-in ICC profiles and an sRGB color
space, this printer-resident system makes it as easy to get great color
from a PowerPoint presentation as it is from a desktop publishing appli-
cation such as QuarkXPress. Its color matching methods are simple for
both inexperienced and professional color users to navigate.
When activated, users can choose from three different color rendering
methods (Perceptual, Colorimetric, and Saturation) for three different
page elements (images, graphics, and text).
‰ Perceptual - this is an ideal selection when printing photographic
images. It’s tuned to enhance images for high-quality prints.
‰ Colorimetric - this is the best choice when printing solid colors,
automatically making adjustments for consistent, predictable
output.
‰ Saturation - when bright colors are needed for text and graphics,
the Saturation selection is the right choice.
Consumers can also fine-tune color output with custom setting selec-
tions available through the printer driver. Changing image contrast,
brightness, saturation, and sharpness is easy with convenient, slide-bar
adjustments.

Driver-based color matching selections are con-
venient to access and use.
Fine tune output with slide-bar selections also in
the driver.
ICC Device Profiles
For hands-on color management, nine (9) ICC color profiles are
included with the magicolor 5440 DL—three for each available resolu-
tion (2400 x 600 dpi, 1200 x 600 dpi, and 600 x 600 dpi), one for each
rendering method (Perceptual, Colorimetric, and Saturation).
ICC Profiles
‰ 2400 x 600 dpi — Perceptual
‰ 2400 x 600 dpi — Colorimetric
‰ 2400 x 600 dpi — Saturation
‰ 1200 x 600 dpi — Perceptual
‰ 1200 x 600 dpi — Colorimetric
‰ 1200 x 600 dpi — Saturation
‰ 600 x 600 dpi — Perceptual
‰ 600 x 600 dpi — Colorimetric
‰ 600 x 600 dpi — Saturation
Users printing with Windows ICM, Apple ColorSync, or through an appli-
cation using ICC color matching will find the profiles helpful in adjusting
color to meet their specifications. Most users of separate color matching
software should choose the profiles that use Perceptual rendering.

Enhanced Automatic Image Density Control (eAIDC)
From day to day, and from one consumable change to the next, toner
density may change, ultimately affecting color consistency. To help
maintain color consistency and ensure predictable color without user
intervention, the magicolor 5440 DL automatically performs enhanced
Automatic Image Density Control (eAIDC).
eAIDC occurs during these states:
‰ when the printer is turned on and a temperature or humidity
change has occurred
‰ at every 10th power up
‰ after printing 200 continuous pages (calibrates at the end of the
job)
‰ after a consumables change
‰ when requested from the front panel
eAIDC means consistent color on every print.
