Welcome

Thank you for purchasing the controller.
This Operator’s Manual explains how to run print cycles on the machine to which the controller is connected. It also gives precautions that you should review before attempting to actually use the controller. So first read this manual carefully and thoroughly; then keep it close at hand so you can refer to it whenever it becomes necessary.
When operating the controller and machine, follow the instructions given in this manual and in the one for the machine. Do not attempt to touch any part that is not covered in these manuals. To prevent possible hazardous conditions, never attempt to disassemble or alter any pieces of equipment, either.
Some of the screens shown in this manual may look different from what you will view in actual applications.

1 Before Using the Printer Driver

1.1 Features of the Printer Driver

This 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, to 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.
NOTES
è Some functions offered by the machine cannot be combined, such as
Staple and Hole-Punch, and some others may not be possible because of the paper size involved. The functions that cannot be selected appear dimmed. Furthermore, 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.
è Some settings, which are defied by the machine for the restricted
combinations of different functions can at times be accepted by the printer driver. If a print command is issued from the personal computer with such settings made, the machine does not produce the output correctly or abandons the job to produce nothing: Make sure that you make correct settings.

Administrative Functions

l Different accounts can be managed for printing records, just as when
using the machine as a copier.
l Printing of confidential documents may be withheld until a legitimate
password is entered on the machine.

1.2 Settings Made on the Machine

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

Priority Device

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

l On Line key
Even if On Line key is pressed, On Line/Off Line of printer cannot be switched.
A lit lamp indicates that the machine is in the On Line mode.
l Ready Lamp
Data can be transferred while this lamp stays lit up. The lamp remains blinking while data is being transferred.

1.3 Installing the Printer Drivers

To make 100% use of the functions offered by the machine mounted with the controller, install the attached printer drivers in your computer. The controller is furnished with the following printer drivers:
l PCL6 printer driver for Windows 95
l PCL6 printer driver for Windows 98/Me/2000
l PCL6 printer driver for Windows NT4.0
Install the printer driver suitable for the operating system that runs on your computer. For installation procedures, see the relevant page as detailed below:
Installing the Windows printer driver:
l Windows 95/98/Me, see page 2-1

Making General Settings Before Using the Printer

The printer driver requires setting of items that are common to all print jobs, including the port to which the printer cable is connected and any optional devices configured with the machine. These settings must be made using property sheets available from the Properties command after the printer driver has been installed, or whenever the operating environment changes.
The most common settings were made when the printer driver was installed, meaning that you do not usually need to change them. Some items must, however, be changed in the following cases.
Cases where changes are necessary Applicable property sheets
l You want to add a comment to distinguish the printer
from others
l The computer’s connecting port has been changed l You want to change the conditions for the display of
a timeout error
l You want to designate a port to which the machine is
connected via a network (this setting must be made on a computer that is connected to the controller via a network)
l This setting is not related to printing. “Color Management”
l You want to share the machine with other computers
connected to the same network (this setting must be made on the computer directly connected to the controller)
l You want to change the setting in the “Minolta
Pi5500ver2 PCL6 Properties” dialog box. For details, see Chapter 3.
