2 Overview

2.1Printer Controller

The printer controller is a device that enables the printing function on this machine.

2.1.1Roles of the printer controller

Incorporating the printer controller enables this machine to function as a printing system, which enables printing through the use of applications loaded on the computer connected to this machine. When using this machine as a network printer, you can print using applications loaded on the computer. Two types of controllers are available for this machine: The standard controller and the optional Image Controller IC-209.

Standard controller

The standard controller can be connected to the computer via a USB port, and uses the GDI printer driver for

printing.

1.This machine

2.Printer controller

3.Printing system

The standard printer controller provides the following functions:

-Printing data sent from a printer driver on a computer

-Controlling the number of pages to be printed (Account Track functions)

-Fax transmission direct from a computer (PC-FAX transmission)

If optional Network Card NC-504 is installed, you can use functions via the network in the same way as when optional Image Controller IC-209 is installed.

Optional Image Controller

The optional image controller can be connected to the computer via a USB or network port, and uses the PCL printer driver for printing.

1.This machine

2.Printer controller

3.Printing system

Optional Image Controller IC-209 provides the following functions:

-Printing data sent from a printer driver on a computer

-Supporting network protocols including TCP/IP (IPv4/IPv6)

-Printing via the network using Web service (Windows Vista/7/Server 2008/Server 2008 R2), LPR or IPP printing

-Configuring settings for this machine and the printer controller from a client computer via the network (using a Web browser)

-Controlling the number of pages to be printed (Account Track functions)

-Fax transmission direct from a computer (PC-FAX transmission)

dReference

The PC-FAX transmission requires optional Fax Kit FK-510 and Extended Operation Panel MK-733. For details on the PC-FAX transmission, refer to the [User's Guide Fax Operations].

2.1.2Flow of printing

The following outlines the flow of operations for using this printing system as a printer.

Print data sent from an application is received by the printer driver.

The data is sent to this machine via the USB interface for USB connection or Ethernet (TCP/IP) for network connection. Then the data is passed from this machine to the printer controller. The printer controller rasterizes images (expands output target characters and images to bitmap data). This data is printed from this machine.
