This User Manual explains how to run print cycles on the machine to which the
controller is connected. It also gives precautions that you should review before
attempting to use the controller. Therefore, first read this manual carefully and
thoroughly, and then keep it close at hand so you can refer to it whenever it becomes
necessary.
When operating the controller and machine, follow the instructions given in this
manual and in the one for the machine. Do not attempt to touch any part that is not
covered in these manuals. To prevent possible hazardous conditions, never attempt
to disassemble or alter any pieces of equipment.
Some of the screens shown in this manual may look different from what you will

Features of the printer driver
This controller is an image controller designed to use the machine as a printer,
allowing you to print documents directly to the machine from a computer to which
the controller is connected. The printer driver, which is used during printing, is
equipped with various functions that make the most out of the features of the
machine and enable you to use the same functions as those offered by the machine.
When actually running a print cycle, you can specify various functions of the
machine on your computer screen.
NOTES
• Some functions offered by the machine cannot be combined, such as Cover
Before Using the Printer Driver
Page and OHP Interleaving, and some others may not be possible because of
the paper size involved. The functions that cannot be selected appear dimmed.
Furthermore, if functions that are incompatible with each other are specified,
the Conflicts dialog box will appear, prompting you to change the settings.
When this dialog box appears, check the details and reselect the functions to
ensure function compatibility.
• Some settings that are refused by the machine because of restricted
combinations of different functions can at times be accepted by the printer
driver. If a print command is issued from the personal computer with such
settings made, the machine will not produce the output correctly: Be sure to
make correct settings.

Making general settings before using the printer
The printer driver requires setting items that are common to all print jobs, including
the port to which the printer is connected and any optional devices configured with
the machine. These settings must be made using tabs available in a Properties dialog
box after the printer driver has been installed or whenever the operating
environment changes.
The most common settings were made when the printer driver was installed, so you
do not usually need to change them. Some items must, however, be changed in the
following cases.
Cases where changes are necessaryApplicable tabs
•
You want to add a comment to distinguish the printer
from others.
•
The connection port has been changed on the
computer.
•
You want to change the conditions for the display of a
timeout error.
•
You want to designate a port to which the machine is
connected via a network. (This setting must be made
on a computer that is connected to the controller via a
network.)
