1 Getting Started

1 Getting Started

1.1 System Requirements

Operating System

• Microsoft Windows 95

• Microsoft Windows 98

• Microsoft Windows Me

• Microsoft Windows NT 4.0

• Microsoft Windows 2000

When the ne twork interface card is installed, the print controller will run in
the following environments.

Client operating systems Windows 95/98/Me/NT 4.0/2000
Network interface type Ethernet 10/100Base-T
Network protocol TCP/IP, IPX/SPX

1

2 Connecting to a Computer

2 Connecting to a Computer

Connect the print controller to the computer using either of the following
two methods.

To connect to the parallel port

Using a parallel cable, locally connect the printer directly to a
computer.

Refer to “2.1 Connecting to the Parallel Port (Local Connection)” on
page 3.

To connect to the Ethernet 10/100Base-T port

If the printer is to be used on a network, connect it using a 10/100Base­T cable.

Refer to “2.2 Connecting to the Ethernet 10/100Base-T Port (Network
Connection)” on page 4.

Important!

• If the printer is to be used on a network, the optional network
interface card KN-305 must be installed.

2

2 Connecting to a Computer

2.1 Connecting to the Parallel Port (Local Connection)

Use the parallel cable to connect the parallel port of the print controller to
the parallel port of the computer.

Important!

• Be sure to use a shielded parallel cable. Use of an unshielded cable
may result in radio frequency interference.

• The parallel port is compatible with IEEE1284 Type B standards.

1. Make sure that the Digital Copier and the computer to be connected to
the Digital Copier are both turned OFF.

2. Connect one end of the parallel cable to the parallel port (printer port)
of the computer.

3. Connect the other end of the cable to the parallel port of the print con­troller installed in the Digital Copier.

This completes the connection of the print controller to the computer.

3

2 Connecting to a Computer

2.2 Connecting to the Ethernet 10/100Base-T P ort

(Network Connection)

If the printer is to be used on a network, connect the network interface card
to the network (LAN).

Important!

• This connection requires the optional network interface card KN-305.

• Be sure to use a shielded cable f or the Ethernet 10/100Base-T cable.
Use of an unshielded cable ma y result in radio frequency interference.

1. Make sure that the Digital Copier is turned OFF.

2. Connect one end of the Ethernet 10/100Base-T cable to the 10/
100Base-T port of the network interface card, and then connect the
other end of the cable to the hub.

This completes the network connection.

inches), and the length can be set between 140 and 432 mm (5.51
and 17.00 inches).

• Be sure that the setting for the “Height” is longer than the setting for
the “Width”.

• When using a custom size specified with the printer driver, be sure to
set that size first with the Digital Copier.

• If “Auto” is selected under “Paper Source” on the [Setup] tab, the
custom size cannot be used.

4.4.2 Output Paper Size

Note

No setting under “Output Paper Size” can be specified under the
following conditions:

• When the “N-up” setting on the [Setup] tab is specified to print
multiple pages on a single sheet of paper

• When “Rendering Mode” on the [Quality] tab is set to “Send Page as
Raster”

Output Paper Size

To print on paper with a size different from “Original Document Size”,
check this box, and then select the desired paper size from the drop­down list.

Fit to Paper

Check this option when you want the print image to be scaled to fit the

Scaling

The print area of the document can be enlarged or reduced. Enter a
value or use the arrow buttons to specify a scaling ratio (between 20%
and 400%).

4.4.3 Copies

This item specifies the number of copies to be printed. You can specify any
value from 1 to 999.

4.4.4 Collate at Printer

The Collate feature supports multi-document printing (when the number of
copies being output is two or more).

If “

On” is selected, multiple copies of the entire document are printed with

each set containing all pages (1, 2, 3...1, 2, 3...1, 2, 3).
If “

Off” is selected, multiple copies of the document are printed with each

set containing copies of the same page (1, 1, 1...2, 2, 2...3, 3, 3).

Note

• The “Collate at Printer” setting may not be available with some

applications.

• If “Off” is selected and the memory becomes full while data is being

received, print the received pages first. For example, if five copies
of a 10-page document are being printed, first print five copies of
pages 1 through 5, and then print five copies of pages 5 through

10.

4.4.5 Orientation

This function sets the orientation of the printed page to either “Portrait” or

Landscape”.

4.5.1 Resolution

This printer prints at a resolution of 6 00 × 600 dpi.

4.5.2 Toner Save

If “On” is selected for this option, less toner is used, thereby reducing printing
costs. Howev er, text and images will be printed with a lighter density. If print
quality is considered to be more important, select “

Off” for this option.

4.5.3 Rendering Mode

When “Send Page as Raster” is selected, all objects (fonts, v ecto r graphic s,
raster graphics) are sent to the printer as raster (bitmapped) data. This can
cause printing to take longer than normal.

Note

When “Rendering Mode” is set to “Send Page as Raster”, the
following items cannot be specified.

optional network interface card KN-305 must be installed. In addition,
connect the printer to the network according to the procedure
described in “2.2 Connecting to the Ethernet 10/100Base-T Port
(Network Connection)” on page 4.

The network interface card KN-305 supports TCP/IP and IPX/SPX protocol.

9.1 Assigning IP Parameters Using Initializer

Initializer is a utility for assigning IP parameters to a Network Interface
Card (NIC). When Initializer is run on a computer, an Initializer reque st
from a NIC causes IP parameters tha t match th e MAC address of the NIC to
be assigned to the NIC.

Requirements

• Computer must have TCP/IP installed and enabled.

• NIC must be connected to the same subnetwork as the computer run­ning Initializer.

Note

• Initializer does not operate properly on a computer running a DHCP
server.

9.1.1 Using Initializer

1. To check t he MAC address (Network Address) of the NIC, pr int ou t the
Configuration Page.

For details on printing the Configuration Page, refer to “5.1.5
Outputting a Report” on page 31 or “5.2.6 Outputting a Report” on
page 39.

2. On the computer you want to use, maneuver to the directory you want
and copy the “

The “
ROM.

3. Double-click “

The Initializer dialog box appears.

4. Reset the Digital Copier by po weri ng it off and then back up ag ai n. The
above step outputs a fixed-period Initializer request.

5. Wait for about five minutes until the NIC resets.

6. Click the
