The Print Controller
Introduction
This print controller interfaces with your Konica printer main body engin e,
enabling you to print directly from your PC or network.
This print controller supports PCL 5E and PostScript Level 1 & 2 compliant
files and automatically uses the correct language for each print job, provided the
print job follows specific industry standard conventions for detecting the
beginning and end of each job.
Basically, the print controller language detection works as follows:
• To determine the language in which the job was created, the preprocessor
checks the beginning of each job.
• When a specific language code is detected, the preprocessor switches to that
language, and then processes the job.
• If the preprocessor cannot determine which language to use, the default
language will be used for the job.
• The system determines when the end of job is reached by the end-of-file
command of each language or by a 30-second time-out.
• For language switching to function correctly, the system must be able to detect
when the end of job is reached.
PCL 5E: The PCL 5E interpreter for the print controller is the PowerPCL from
Electronics for Imaging, Inc. This is an HP PCL 5E clone that supports multiple
resolutions and PJL commands.
PostScript: The optional PostScript interpreter for the print controller is the
PowerPage2 from Electronics for Imaging, Inc. This is a Level 2 PostScript
interpreter that also has Level 1 compatibility. The PostScript programming
language is specifically tailored to produce images in a device independent
manner. PostScript language programs are reproducible on virtually any device
without significant differences, except for differences created in the devices
themselves.
PJL Commands: Many of the PJL commands, as defined by HP, are supported
by this print controller. Several special functions are controlled in PCL mode via
the PJL commands. In addition, commands to provide bidirectional (BiDi)
functionality are also supported.

material (OHT/OHP), thick paper, and thin paper can only be used through the
manual bypass tray. After selecting the manual bypass tray, you will be
prompted to insert the requested size paper into the tray.
Normally (in non-wait mode), the print controller system will print as long as
Letter size paper is installed. However, you may activate the Wait Mode and
have the opportunity to confirm that the desired paper type (OHP) is installed.
Check with your Konica Service representative if you wish to activate the Wait
Mode.

Memory Configuration
Most of the memory in this print controller is used for rasterizing the image. A
small portion is used for the system operation (see NOTE).
The basic print controller configuration includes 32 MB of RAM, which allows
1-bit mode printing at 400 dpi on all paper sizes. The print controller may be
upgraded in 32/64/128 MB DIMM increments to a maximum of 512 MB
(4x128) to allow 8-bit Grayscale printing on Tabloid (11"x17") A3 paper, or
double buffering on smaller paper sizes.
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 ERDH memory, the print controller continues to rasterize the next print job in the
sequence.
The more memory in the print controller, the more pages it can rasterize while
waiting for the previous job to print. A typical example of the memory requirements for a Letter page is as follows:
1-Bit 8-Bit
400 DPI 1,870 Kbytes 14.96 Mbytes
600 DPI 4,207 Kbytes 33.66 Mbytes
32 MBytes installed=15 pages @1-Bit, 400 DPI
NOTE: ~2.7 MB is used for the system.
You may select various image quality modes from your print driver screen to
produce various levels of grayscale. The following Table shows the available
image quality modes and the grayscale levels they produce.
Print Mode Print Engine Print Controller Grayscale
Text 1-Bit Mode 1-Bit Mode 2 Levels
Medium 2-Bit Mode 8-Bit Mode 4 Levels
High 4-Bit Mode 8-Bit Mode 16 Levels
Very High 8-Bit Mode 8-Bit Mode 256 Levels
Memory Upgrade Modules
To obtain optimal printer performance, Konica recommends that DIMM
modules be installed by a Konica certified technician. For details, contact your
Konica service representative or call Konica National Technical Support Center
at 1(800) 825-5664.

Booklet mode is selected in your print controller as well as in the application, output
will not be as expected.
Dual Access
The Dual Access function provides an efficient means for your printer to handle two
different jobs simultaneously, even for a copier job and a print job.
The Electronic Recirculating Document Handler (E-RDH) allows the print engine to
receive a job while it is printing scanned or stored documents.
There are four types of Dual Access, as shown below:
• Printing during Copyi n g
• Printing during Printing
• Copying during Copying
• Copying during Printing
In the Copier Mode, the print engine controls and creates messages for the LCD operation panel. The LCD generates two screen types, namely, the Status Screen, and the Job
Screen (a copier type tab-based screen).
When the Print Mode is selected, the print controller will take over the control of the
LCD operation panel screen and function according to its printing settings, values and
parameters.

Printing Modes
Image Density
Controlling the Print Density level provides an efficient way to save toner. You may select
this function directly from your printer driver screen. There are three distinct Print
Density modes that can be used. Each mode is listed below along with its corresponding
level of toner usage.
• Normal Mode 100% toner usage
• Toner Save Mode 80% toner usage
• Draft Mode 60% toner usage
Wait Mode
The Wait Mode is available from your printer driver screen.
• Wait Mode Off
Use Wait Mode Off to save time when your printer has a "fixed tray/paper configuration"
by allowing printing to take place without further prompting.
• Wait Mode On
Use Wait Mode On when your printer has a "flexible tray/paper configuration" or when
you do not know the tray configuration. In this case, the system will prompt you to load
the appropriate paper type in the tray.
• Wait with Pr oof
Use Wait with Proof when you want the system to prompt you to print a proof set before
printing multiple sets.
Sheet Insertion
Sheet Insertion sheets are used from tray 1. The following modes are available:
• Sheet insertion copy
• Sheet insertion blank
NOTE: Sheet Insertion cannot be used with Booklet Mode.
Cover Insertion
Cover Insertion sheets are used from tray 1 or the multi sheet bypass tray. The following
modes are available:
• Front cover copy
• Front cover blank
• Back cover copy
• Back cover blank

Tray Selection/P aper Selection
The system selects paper size and paper tray according to the manner and conditions
specified below.
• When a paper size is not specified for a print job, the default paper size is used.
• When a paper tray is specified for the print job, the specified tray will be used.
If that tray is empty or does not contain the requested paper size, the system will not
switch to another tray, even if another tray contains the requested paper size.
• Auto Tray Selection Mode
If paper size is specified for a print job, the system will locate a tray that contains
the paper size and print the job.
If that paper size cannot be located, the system will prompt you on the LCD operation
panel to select another paper size. In this case, you may load the appropriate paper size
in the Manual tray or Tray 1 and contin ue printing; or you may select another paper
size and continue printing; or you may cancel the job.
• Special Paper (OHP/Thin/Thick/Color/Letterhead)
Select the "Wait Mode" if you want to be prompted to insert special paper.
If no paper is installed or if the wrong paper size is installed, the system will
prompt you to install paper, regardless of the "Wait Mode" status.
• Color/Letterhead
You may preprogram trays to be used for color or letterhead paper.
If a tray does not contain the desired paper, the LCD screen will prompt you to install
the paper in the manual tray or in the tray programmed for Color/Letterhead.

Font Selection
Standard fonts of the PostScript and PCL 5e languages are displayed on the following
pages. The PostScript fonts shown are the visual equivalent of the Adobe fonts with the
same names.
A PostScript compatible file system is provided for storing downloaded fonts or other
files. At this time, PCL 5e does not support storing downloaded fonts on a hard drive.
Fonts that are downloaded with a print job are lost when the language changes or when
the power is turned off. PostScript fonts can be permanently installed on the hard drive.
Refer to your software documentation for font installation procedures.
Selecting Fonts from Application Software
Fonts can be selected through your application software after you have set up your hard
disk with the necessary printer files and font files. Refer to your application software
documentation for details.
Selecting PCL 5 Fonts using Embed ded Printer Commands
Some applications allow embedded command to be entered in your file from within your
document. When an embedded printer command is entered, the printer performs a font
search to match the certain font characteristics, e.g., spacing, pitch, point size. Printer
commands for PCL 5 are included in Section 4.
NOTES:
1. A Japanese market version of this print controller is provided with Kanji font support,
and will use the Pipeline PowerPage 2J PostScript interpreter and Kanji type 0/4 fonts.
Standard fonts are compatible with the Mincho and Gothic fonts found in most Kanji
printers and in Windows J.
2. Temporary soft fonts are downloaded for a specific document, deleted when the font
printout is generated, and do not appear on the font printout; downloaded permanent
soft fonts remain resident in the printer until they are replaced with other fonts or until
the printer is turned off.
3. PostScript fonts listed are the visual equivalent of Adobe font names, and are not the
actual Adobe fonts.

Font Characteristics
A font is described by its Symbol Set and font characteristics, such as, Typeface, Point
Size, Pitch, Spacing, Stroke Weight and Style.
Symbol Set: A Symbol Set relates to the unique set of all available alphanumeric, punctuation, and special symbols in a font. More than one Symbol Set can be used by one
font, e.g., a math symbol set, legal symbol set, or Roman-8 symbol set.
Typefaces: Times Roman abcdefABCDEF&%!Helvetica abcdefABCDEF 12345&%!
Typeface relates to the design of all the characters and symbols that make up a font, e.g.,
serif or sans serif design.
Point Size: 8 Point abcdefABCDEF12345&%! 12 Point abcdefABCDEF 12345&%!
Point size relates to font height, and is measured in points at 72 points per inch. Point size
is fixed in a bitmapped font, and variable in a scalable font.
Pitch: Courier 10 Point 12 Pitch Courier 12 Point 10
Pitch
fixed pitch or proportional spacing, i.e., the number of characters per inch is variable. A
12 pitch font, for example, prints 12 characters per horizontal inch.
Spacing: Fixed Spacing Courier 10 Proportional Spacing Times Roman 10
Spacing relates to the amount of space allotted to each character, as for [i] and [x]. Each
character occupies either the same amount of space and is fixed, or each character space
varies according to the width of the character, and is proportional. The space allotted to
characters is specified for the entire font.
Pitch relates to the number of characters per horizontal inch. Fonts have either
Str oke W eight: Helv etica Narrow abcdefABCDEF12345&%! Helvetica Bold
abcdefABCDEF12345&%! Stroke weight relates to print thickness of each character,
and is measured in terms of light, medium, and bold.
Style:
Helvetica Ob lique abcdefABCDEF12345&%!
Style relates to posture (upright, italics), width (condensed, normal, expanded), and
structure (outline, solid, shadow).
