■ Outline of the Print Controller
● IP-601 + PS-361 and Print Engine
The Konica IP-601 + PS-361 is the Print Controller used to connect the Konica
7075 Printer/Copier to computers or to a network on which the Konica 7075 can
function as a PostScript printer from applications on Windows 95/98/NT 4.0/2000
or Macintosh. The optional Konica KN-302 Network Interface Card is required for
connecting to a network.
The operation panel of the Konica 7075 can be used either in the copy mode or
the printer mode.
Even while the Konica 7075 is printing or copying, the IP-601 + PS-361 can receive the next job, and while the IP-601 + PS-361 is receiving a print job, you can
use the copying mode.
The IP-601 + PS-361 supports PostScript 3. When the command for printing is
executed from applications on Windows 95/98/NT 4.0/2000 or Macintosh, print
Chapter 1 Outline
data is sent to the IP-601 + PS-361 by way of a parallel cable (IEEE 1284) or a
network. The PostScript interpreter inside the Print Controller rasterizes the print
data to image data, which is sent to the Konica 7075 Print Engine via the video
interface card installed in the Print Engine. The Serial bus (IEEE 1394) provides a
high speed transmitting method for data, commands and status transferring between the PostScript interpreter and the video interface card. The maximum
transferring rate is 200Mbps. The Printer Engine receives image data through the
PCI bus from the video interface card.
The 7075 + IP-601 system can continuously print Letter/A4-size paper at the print
speed of 75 ppm (400 dpi/600 dpi). In addition, this system supports the duplex
function and the finisher function which enables the use of five paper trays, stapling, folding and stitching.

Conceptual Connection
For use as a networked printer
(KN-302 required)
E-RDH (Electronic Recirculating Document Handler)
The Konica 7075 E-RDH is used to print from the IP-601 + PS-361. The ERDH system temporarily stores in memory the print data you select from
IP-601 + PS-361Konica 7075 Printer/Copier
For use as a local printer
available options. The E-RDH memory is 64 MB (standard) and can be extended to 512 MB.
When using the E-RDH in the one-sided mode, printing will be performed
simultaneously while the print controller rasterizes the pages in the print job
and sends them to the E-RDH memory. While pages are being printed from
the E-RDH memory, the print controller continues to rasterize the next print
job in the sequence.

● Hardware Configuration
Basic Configuration
Configuration of the IP-601 + PS-361 is as follows:
The optional KN-302 card is used to connect to the Ethernet. The KN-302 is
the internal network interface card which supports multiple protocols on the
Ethernet. This card includes a CPU and flash memory with an upgradable
program.
The KN-302 supports the following network protocols.
• IPX/SPX (NetWare, Peer to Peer)
• TCP/IP (LPD/LPR, Peer to Peer)
Refer to the corresponding operating manual for connection to the KN-302.
● Engine Interface
IEEE 1394 (The maximum transferring rate is 200Mbps.)
Use this Engine Interface only to connect the IP-601 and the 7075.
Otherwise, system trouble may occur.

● How to Use Memory
Most of the IP-601 + PS-361 memory is used for rasterizing images. Only a small
part of it is used for the system operation. The E-RDH memory of the Konica 7075
is used for print processing.
The basic memory setting of the IP-601 is 64 MB, which allows 1 bit mode (400
dpi/600 dpi) printing for all sizes of paper. The memory of the IP-601 + PS-361
can be expanded to 512 MB maximum.
In addition, the E-RDH memory of the Konica 7075 can be expanded to 512 MB
maximum.
The more memory in the IP-601, the more pages can be rasterized while waiting
for the pre vious job to print.
Memory Overflow
Depending on the functions selected in the printer driver, occasional memory
overflow may occur if the volume of the print job is large. In this case the print
job is cancelled.
e.g. Booklet, Fold & Stitch, 2 in 1, etc.
In case of frequent memory overflow, extending the memory capacity of the
Konica 7075 Printer/Copier is recommended.
Memory Upgrading
To obtain optimum printer performance, memory expansion is recommended.
Contact the nearest Konica service representative for details.
