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 data
is then delivered from this machine to the printer controller, which performs
image rasterization (development of output characters and images to bitmap
data). Finally, this data is printed from this machine.

2

Note

The parallel and USB interfaces cannot be used simultaneously.

Overview

When a print job is received during copying, the data is stored in the memory
of this machine. When copying is complete, the print job is automatically
printed.

Flow of the computer faxing operation

Conventionally, faxes are sent by loading an original into a fax machine and
sending it.

With computer faxing, you can send a fax directly from your computer with­out using any paper.

Transmission commands sent 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 data
is then delivered from this machine to the printer controller, which performs
image rasterization (development of output characters and images to bitmap
data). Finally, this data is stored in the memory of this machine and transmit­ted like a conventional fax job.

Note

For details on installing the printer driver in a network environment, refer
to “Setting up network printing” on page 3-1. Because it is necessary to
specify other network settings in advance when installing the printer driv­er using a network connection, install it using a local connection at this
time.

To install the printer driver under Windows XP, Windows Server 2003,
Windows 2000, or Windows NT 4.0, log on using a user name that is au­thorized by the administrator.

To connect this machine to a computer using a parallel connection or a
USB connection, the optional local interface kit is required.

Installing the printer driver

Automatic installation using the installer

With the installer, this machine is detected to determine whether it is con­nected by USB or is on the same TCP/IP network as the computer, and then
the required printer driver is automatically installed. You can also manually
specify the printer driver to be installed.

2

Note

Since this machine is automatically detected with a network connection,
be sure to set the IP address of this machine before connecting it. For de­tails on specifying the settings, refer to “Setting the IP Address for This
Machine” on the User’s Guide [Print Operations].

When installing on Windows NT 4.0, 2000, XP, or Server 2003, adminis­trator permissions are required.

If the wizard starts up in order to add new hardware with a USB or parallel
connection, click [Cancel].
