Chapter 1 UFR Setup
Guide for WinXP
1.1 Overview
The following discussions relate to connection to a network in a Windows XP environment using the UFR printer
driver and standard TCP/IP settings:
UFR is a PDL used to print on an iR C6800 or iR C6800N from a PC.
- In the case of the iR C6800, this function will become available when a Canon Color Network UFR Printer Kit-
C1 (optional) is installed. (The function comes as standard with the iR C6800N.)
RAW mode is used for printing through port 9100.
- If the network uses firewall software or uses a router, or it is a WAN or VPN, you must make settings so that port
9100 is valid for use of RAW mode.
- The appropriate settings will automatically be made when printer drivers are installed.
