To switch between modes, press the mode keys on the control panel.

Main Power

[Copy] Switches to the copy mode.

[Fax/Scan] Switches to the fax/scan mode. To use the fax function, optional fax kit is required.

[Extra Scan] Switches to the extra scan mode. To use the extra scan function, optional fax kit or scanner unit is required.

[User Box] Switches to the box mode.

Detail

You can use this machine as a printer in all modes.

Change the default print settings in the Utility mode.

Overview

Printing flow

When using this printing system as a printer, the flow of the main process is described below.

Print commands transmitted from the application are received by the printer driver.

Data is transmitted to this machine over a parallel interface (IEEE 1284) when this machine is used as a local printer, over a USB interface when this machine is used as a USB printer, or over an Ethernet interface (TCP/IP, IPX/ SPX, or AppleTalk) when this machine is used as a network printer. The printer controller then performs image rasterization (development of output characters and images to bitmap data). Finally, this data is printed from this machine.

Note

To connect the parallel interface, the optional local interface kit is required.

The printer driver can be installed using the Add Printer Wizard, however, if used, the Plug and Play screen will appear each time the computer is started.
