Abstract (en)

A method of converting a CMYK color toner printer to a CMYX color toner printer for over print printing in a single pass. A black toner printing cartridge is removed from the first toner cartridge position and a cyan toner printing cartridge is removed from said fourth toner cartridge position. A non-standard toner printing cartridge is provided and installed in the fourth toner cartridge position, and the cyan toner printing cartridge is installed into the first toner cartridge position. A raster image processor software comprises a selection screen for a user to select over or under print configurations. The raster image processor software is configured to remap the toner printing cartridges of the color toner printer so that the printer recognizes that the user has installed a non-standard toner cartridge and the printer can print a layer of non-standard toner over an image in a single pass.
