Changing Parallel Interface Mode
The parallel interface supports a bi-directional/high-speed mode according to IEEE standards.
Normally, this interface is used under the default setting Auto.
Item Description
Auto The printer automatically changes its communication mode to that of the host
computer. Ordinarily, you should leave this setting unchanged.
Normal The printer uses the standard communication method recommended for
Centronics interfaces.
High Speed This mode enables faster data transmission between the machine and the host
computer. (Select this mode if printing problems occur when the machine is
connected to a workstation.)
Nibble (high) High speed data communication is used in compliance with the IEEE 1284
standard.
Important! Use a parallel printer cable that complies with the IEEE1284 standard.

Using the RAM Disk
Note • The operations of the RAM disk are the same as those of the memory card. Refer to the
After the list of partitions is printed, the display returns to the Printer menu screen.
This machine is equipped with RAM disk functions. The RAM disk is a virtual disk unit that uses a
part of the memory. If you assign a certain size of the memory to the RAM disk, you can use it for
electronic sorting (for reduction of total print time) and storage and reading of data. Also you can
use the e-MPS function.
To activate RAM disk in the printer's memory, first you must set the RAM disk mode to On and set
the desired data size for the RAM disk as described in the following section. This allows you to
perform the following operations on the RAM disk.
• Writing data
• Printing a list of data names (partitions)
• Reading data (Data and Program Data)
• Deleting data (Data, Program Data, Font Data, and Macro Data)
relevant sections Using the Memory Card on page 2-32.

Setting the RAM Disk Size
To use the RAM disk, activate and enter the desired size of the RAM disk in the manner described
below. The maximum RAM disk size can be calculated as follows:
Maximum RAM disk size = Total printer memory - 48MB
For example, if the total memory installed in your printer is 256MB, you can set 208MB of RAM disk.
If you attempt to set the RAM disk size beyond this restriction, the printer automatically round it
down so that the size is always 48MB less than the total printer memory.

Using Proof-and-Hold
When you print multiple copies, this mode first prints one copy so that you can proof it before
continuing to print the remaining copies. Since you can proof the prin touts before printing the
remaining copies, wastage of paper can be reduced.
The printer prints one copy and, at the same time, saves the print job on the hard disk/RAM disk.
You can also change the number of copies when resuming printing from the operator panel.
When the printer is turned off, all stored jobs will be deleted.
Printing Remaining Copies of a Proof and Hold Job
Printing a Proof-and-Hold job on the operator panel is the same as printing a quick copy job. Refer
to the relevant sections Printing a Quick Copy on page 2-39.
Printing a Private Print/Stored Job
In private printing, you can specify that a job is not printed until you release the job from the operator
panel. When sending the job from the application software, specify a 4-digit access code in the
printer driver. The job is released for printing by entering the access code on the operator panel
ensuring confidentiality of the print job. The data is cleared after printing.
In the stored job mode, access codes are not mandatory. Then, the access code must be entered
on the operator panel to print a stored job. Print data will be stored in the h ard disk or RAM disk af ter
printing. Refer to Kyocera Extended Driver User Guide for the driver settings.

If an error that still allows you to continue printing occurs, the next received data is automatically
printed after a set period of time elapses. For example, if the printer is shared over a network as a
network printer and one person causes one of the above errors, after the set period of time elapses,
the data sent from the next person is pri nted. The default setting is Off (Auto Error Clear disabled).
The auto clear errors are:
• Print overrun Press GO.
• Memory overflow Press GO.
You can also set the time that elapses before Auto Continue is activated.

4 Options
This machine has the following options available to satisfy your printing requirements.
Additional Memory
To expand the printer memory for more complex pri nt jobs and faster print speed, you can plug in
optional memory modules (dual in line memory modules) in two memory slots provided on the
printer main controller board. You can select additional memory modules from 32, 64, 128, or
256MB. The maximum memory size is 512MB (256MB x 2).
Hard Disk (HD-10)
The hard disk is used for saving print data. This is advantageous when printing multiple sets of
copies, as high-speed printing is possible using the electronic sorting function. The hard disk is
further required in order to use the e-MPS function. You can use the KM-NET Printer Disk Manager
utility to keep track of the stored data. This software is included in the CD-ROM supplied with the
printer.
Memory Card
The printer is equipped with a slot for a memory card with the maximum size of 256MB. A memory
card is useful for storing fonts, macros, and overlays. You can use the IC Link for Windows utility to
download fonts, etc., to a flash memory card. This software is included in the CD-ROM supplied with
the printer.
Serial Interface (IB-11B)
Install the serial interface in this machine when the serial port is used for printer interface.
Network Interface Card (IB-20/IB-21E/IB-22)
Along with the standard for the network interface on the printer, the network interface card supports
TCP/IP, IPX/SPX, NetBEUI and EtherTalk protocols, so that the printer can be used on network
environments including Windows, Macintosh, UNIX, NetWare, etc.
The network interface card must be installed in the option interface slot.
