1.1 Features of the Controller

Features of the Controller

The 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. When actually running a print cycle, you can specify various functions of the machine on your computer screen.

NOTE

When using the controller, be sure to set the machine to the On Line state.

Some functions offered by the machine cannot be combined, such as Staple and Hole-Punch, and others may not be used because of the paper size involved. The functions that cannot be selected appear dimmed on the screen or an error message appears when an attempt is made to select any of them. Further, 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.

1.4 Settings Made on the Machine

The following functions must be set on the machine using its Utility Mode, since they relate to the controller.

Priority Device

Select the priority of use of the machine, either as a copier or printer.

Copier: The machine is used as a copier.

The machine starts the print cycle only after it has received the entire data of a particular print job.

The machine can be used for copying, since it starts printing only after it has received the entire data of the job for printing. This means that more time is available to you for copying, but you have to wait for a longer time before a particular print job is done.

Printer: The machine is used as a printer.

The machine starts the print cycle before it completes receiving the entire data of a particular print job.

On receiving the data for one page, the machine starts printing, accepting no other job for copying. This means that less time is available to you for copying, but you do not have to wait long before a particular print job is done.

On Line

This function is the same as that available in ordinary printers as On Line/ Off Line. Select On Line normally.

Test Print

The following four types of test print will be output when a test print is run from the machine:

7.1 Features of the Controller

Features of the Controller

The 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. They 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.

NOTE

When using the controller, be sure to set the machine on the On Line state.

Some functions offered by the machine cannot be combined, such as Staple and Hole-Punch, and others many not be used because of a paper size involved. The functions that cannot be selected appear dimmed. Further, if functions that are incompatible with each other are specified, the Conflicts dialog box appears, prompting you to change the settings. When this dialog box appears, check the details and reselect the functions to ensure function compatibility.

Pi3502 PS/Scan Option 7-1

Various Printing Functions

Makes prints that are sorted into complete sets of the originals or grouped into uncollated groups, each containing prints of one original. For details, see page 9-15.

Prints two pages of originals on both front and back sides of a single sheet of paper. For details, see page 9-9.

Long Edge Binding Short Edge Binding

Makes prints of complete sets of the originals, stapled together or punched for filing. For details, see page 9-15.

By combining Collate with other finishing capabilities, you can make complete sets of documents for immediate delivery without having to do any further processing.

Adds a reference number (Distribution Number) to each document set during printing. For details, see page 9-18.

Prints only the cover on a different type of paper (such as colored paper). For details, see page 9-10.

Pi3502 PS/Scan Option 7-3

Linux – Before Using the Controller

Capable of printing on OHP transparencies. You can also insert interleaves, either blank or printed with the same contents as those on the OHP transparencies. For details, see page 9-11.

Administrative Functions

Different accounts can be managed for printing records, just as when using the machine as a copier. Setting whether 100-account management or 1000-account management is to be done from the machine.

Printing of confidential documents may be withheld until a legitimate password is entered on the machine.
