RIVERS
A printer driver manages printing communication between your application and the printer. It interprets the instructions generated by the application, merges those instructions with printer-specific options you set and then translates all this information into a language that the printer understands. Printing options can be set not only in the driver but also in the printer Setup, ColorWise Pro Tools, Hot Folders, or Command Workstation.
The printer options you set in the driver override the printer Setup and ColorWise Pro Tools settings while settings made from Command Workstation override your printer driver settings.
The following printer driver types are available, depending on your operating system:
> Windows: PCL5c, PCL6 and PostScript > Mac: PostScript
The PCL drivers are very similar to each other. PCL6 prints faster than PCL5c but it does not allow poster printing or watermark printing whereas PCL5c does.
As a broad rule, where you have the choice, use PCL for printing general office document files and use PostScript for printing files with a high graphical content or PDF files.

OW TO ACCESS THE DRIVER SCREENS
Most of the features described are accessed via the printer driver windows. How you access them depends on your computer and its operating system.
The driver windows are tabbed dialogue boxes, offering a wide range of choices about how you want to print your documents.
There are two ways to access the driver features:
1. Directly from the Windows “Printers” folder (“Printers and Faxes” folder in Windows XP).
If you choose this method any changes you make will become the driver defaults. This means they will remain active for all your applications unless you specifically change them from within the application’s Print dialogue.
2. From your application’s Print dialogue. If you choose this method any changes you make will usually only last for as long as
the particular application is running, or until you change them again. In mos t cases, once you quit the application the driver defaults will return.
NOTE Settings made from the printer’s own control panel are the printer defaults. They determine how your printer will behave unless you specify otherwise from your computer.
The driver defaults override the printer defaults.

ETTING THE DRIVER DEVICE OPTIONS
This section explains how to ensure that your printer driver can utili se all of the hardware features installed in your printer.
Accessories such as hard disk, duplex unit (two sided printing), additional paper trays, etc., will only be usable if the printer driver on your computer knows they are there.
In some cases the hardware configuration of your printer is automatically detected when the driver is installed. However, it is advisable to at least check whether all of the available hardware features are listed in the driver.
This procedure is essential if you subsequently add extra hardware features to your printer after the drivers have been installed and set up.
NOTE Remember that if your printe r or MFP is shared between users on different computers, the driver must be adjusted on each user’s machine.
To set the driver device options:
1. Access the driver’s Properties window .
2. Select the Device Options tab.
3. Set the options for any devices you have inst all ed , inc l ud i ng the correct number of
paper trays, finisher, duplex unit, etc.
4. Click OK to close the window and save your changes.

ACTORS THAT AFFECT COLOUR PRINTING
There are many factors that affect colour printing. Some of the most important factors are:
> the differences between the range of colours a monitor can reproduce versus the
range of colours that a printer can reproduce (See page 17).
> monitor settings (See page 17). > colour settings in your software application (See page 18). > how your software application displays colour (See page 18). > colour settings in your printer driver (See page 18). > viewing (lighting) conditions (See page 18). > paper type (See page 18).
Monitor colours vs. printer colours
(Differences between the range of colours a monitor or printer can reproduce) Neither a printer nor a monitor can reproduce the full range of colours seen by the human
eye. Each device is limited to a certain range of colours.
> A printer cannot reproduce all of the colours displayed on a monitor. > A monitor cannot reproduce all of the colours printed by a printer.
Both devices use very different technologies to represent colour.
> A monitor uses Red, Green and Blue (RGB) phosphors (or LCDs). > A printer uses Cyan, Yellow, Magenta and Black (CMYK) toner or ink.
Very vivid colours (such as intense reds and blues) can be displayed on a monitor. These same colours cannot be easily produced on any printer using toner or ink.
There are certain colours (for example, some yellows), that can be printed, but cannot be displayed accurately on a monitor.
These differences between monitor colours and printer colours are the main reasons why printed colours do not always match the colours displayed on screen.
Monitor settings
The brightness and contrast controls on your monitor can change how your document looks on-screen.
Your monitor colour temperature also influences how “warm” or “cool” the colours look. Several of the colour matching options make reference to your monitor’s colour
temperature. Many monitors allow you to adjust the colour temperature through their control panels. There are several settings found on a typical monitor:
5000k or D50 Warmest, yellowish
lighting 6500k or D65 Cooler Approximates daylight conditions. 9300k Cool The default setting for many monitors and
k=degrees Kelvin, a measurement of temperature
Printing from Windows – PCL > 17
Typically used in graphics arts environments.
television sets.
Software settings
Many software applications have their own colour settings. The application settings may override the settings in the printer driver. Please refer to the
documentation for your software application for details on that particular program’s colour management functions.
How the application displays colour
Some graphics applications such as Adobe® Photoshop®, or Macromedia Freehand® may
®
display colour differently from “office” applications such as Microsoft
Word.
Please see your application’s online help or user manual for more information.
Printer driver settings
The colour settings in your printer driver can change the appearance of a document. The default driver settings produce good results for most documents.
There are several options available to help match the printed colours with those displayed on screen. (See “How to perform colour matching” on page 19.)
Lighting (Viewing) conditions
A document can look very different under various lighting conditions. For example, the colours may look different when viewed standing next to a sunlit window
compared to how they look under standard office fluorescent lighting.
Paper type
The type of paper used can also significantly affect the printed colour. For example, a printout on recycled paper can look duller than one on specially formulated
glossy paper.
Printing from Windows – PCL > 18
HOW TO
PERFORM COLOUR MATCHING
There are several ways to achieve colour matching with your printer. The range of options available varies according to your computer platform, operating system, colour production method, and printer driver type.
Descriptions
The following table provides a brief description of the available settings for colour matching:
SETTING DESCRIPTION
Automatic The printer driver will apply optimal settings based on the page
content of your document.
Manual PCL
Allows you to select the rendering intent and pure black. See “Rendering intents - PCL5c driver only” on page 20. See “Black generation” on page 15.
PCL 6
Allows you to select the rendering intent, pure black, and adjust the brightness and saturation levels.
See “Rendering intents - PCL5c driver only” on page 20. See “Black generation” on page 15. See “Brightness and saturation” on page 21.
Greyscale This option prints all documents as monochrome using only
black toner. No colour prints. The printer interprets all colours as a variation of greys. Use Greyscale to speed up printing of proof copies or when you
don’t need to print a colour document in colour.
No Colour Matching Use this option to turn off all printer colour matching.
No colour correction occurs when selected.
How to use
You can change these settings on the Colour tab.
Printing from Windows – PCL > 19
Rendering intents - PCL5c dr iv e r only
When a document is printed, a conversion takes place from the document's colour space to the printer colour space. The rendering intents are essentially a set of rules that determine how this colour conversion takes place.
SETTING DESCRIPTION
Off Default setting. Perceptual Best choice for printing photographs.
Compresses the source gamut into the printer's gamut while maintaining the overall appearance of an image. This may change the overall appearance of an image as all the colours are shifted together.
This option attempts to simulate RGB colour.
Saturation Best choice for printing bright and saturated colours if you don't
care how accurate the colours are. Best choice for graphs, charts, diagrams etc. Maps fully saturated colours in the source gamut to fully
saturated colours in the printer's gamut.
Relative Colorimetric Good for proofing CMYK colour images on a desktop printer.
Much like Absolute Colorimetric , except that it scales the source white to the (usually) paper white.
Unlike Absolute Colorimetric, Relative Colorimetric attempts to take the paper white into account.
Absolute Colorimetric
Best for printing solid colours and tints (such as Company logos). Matches colours common to both devices (monitor and printer)
exactly. Clips the out-of-gamut colours to their nearest printed equivalent.
Tries to print white as it appears on screen. The white of a monitor is often very different from paper white, so this may result in colour casts, especially in the lighter areas of an image.
To change these settings in your printer driver:
1. Click the Colour tab.
2. Select Manual Settings and click Options....
3. Select Printer Colour Matching and choose the desired rendering intent from the
drop-down list.
Printing from Windows – PCL > 20
Brightness and saturation
NOTE This feature is available with PCL 6 only.
Before printing a document, you can adjust the brightness and saturation settings:
SETTING DESCRIPTION
Brightness Determines the total amount of light (white) in the colour.
Saturation The degree of saturation of a colour is its relative purity, or
Zero brightness is black. 100% Brightness is white. Intermediate values are "light" or "dark" colours.
intensity.
To adjust these settings:
1. Click the Colour tab.
2. Select Manual Settings and click Options....
3. Use the horizontal scroll bars to adjust the brightness and saturation levels.
Matching specific colours
Use the Colour Swatch Utility to print out a chart of RGB swatches. Select your desired RGB values from the swatches and enter the values in your application's colour picker.
See Utilities for more information.
Printing from Windows – PCL > 21
P
RINT RESOLUTION
The resolution for a print job controls the print speed and print quality of a job. Raising the print resolution can maximise the image quality of a print job. You usually do
this for final versions of documents or when printing images (photographs). Lowering the print resolution can increase print speed, reduce the need for toner, and
reduce the wear on the image drum. You usually do this for proof or draft versions of documents.
HOW TO
1. On the Job Options tab select the desired Quality level.
USE
The available options are:
> ProQ4800 best possible > Fine/Detail (1200 x 1200) > Normal (600 x 600) > Draft (600 x 600)
2. Click OK.

B
OOKLET PRINTING
Booklet printing allows printing of multipage documents with their pages ordered and arranged so that final printed output can be folded into a booklet. Typically, A4 (or A3) pages would be reduced to A5 (or A4) and printed side by side on both sides of A4 (or A3) paper, so that the paper can be folded into a booklet.
NOTE A few applications do not support booklet printing, but most do.
Note that the number of pages in a booklet is always a multiple of four, since two pages are printed on each side of each sheet of paper. If your document is not a multiple of four pages long, the last one, two or three pages in your folded booklet will be blank.
Activating Booklet Printing
1. On the driver’s Setup tab, choose Booklet from the Finishing Mode drop-down list.
2. Click Options....
3. In the Booklet window you can set the signature size, the number of pages per side
of paper, the binding margin, and if the booklet will be read right to left or left to right. The graphic in this window shows the effect of each choice you make.
Click Help for more information (not available for PCL5c driver).
Printing from Windows – PCL > 23
4. Click OK. If you do not have the Booklet option on the Setup tab, check that the Duplex is enabled
in the driver. (See “Setting the driver device options” on page 14.)

Application collate—Some application programs have a collate feature in their print options. In this case the application performs the document collation and may send the job multiple times to the printer. Generally, this method is slower but can be more reliable.
Printer collate—This section describes the collate function built into the printer driver. In this case the job is stored temporarily in printer memory or on the printer’s hard disk (if installed), and the printer performs collation. This method is normally faster, but may not work from all applications.
If you experience problems using printer collate, use the collate option in your application’s print options instead.
Printing collated documents
1. On the Job Options tab, choose how many Copies you want to print from the
scrolling list.
Printing from Windows – PCL > 24
2. Click the Collate checkbox (a checkmark appears).
3. Click OK.
S
EPARATING QUEUED PRINT JOBS
When you share a printer with other users it can be useful to print a special page between print jobs to help locate each user’s job in a paper stack at the printer.
The separator page is set from the printer driver’s default properties window. Access to this is directly from Windows, not from within your application program. See “Changing the
driver defaults” on page 12.
1. In the driver’s Advanced tab click the Separator Page… button.
2. Click Browse... and navigate to a file containing an image of the separator page you
wish to use, then click OK.

F
ONT SUBSTITUTION
This advanced feature allows you to substitute printer fonts for TrueType fonts. This may be useful if you have a document formatted with a font that is not installed on your system, but the font is built in to the printer.
When using Font Substitution, the general layout of a document does not change, but accurate font design is lost. For this reason, Font Substitution is generally not recommended as it becomes very difficult to predict the appearance of your document when printed, since there is no way of previewing how the document will print with these substituted fonts.
NOTE If your software application uses a proprietary printer driver, Font Substitution may not work.
Not all TrueType fonts can be replaced with printer fonts. Font Substitution not available for PCL6 driver.
Tip: You can print a sample of each of the printer's built-in fonts from the printer operator panel. See “Print pages” on page 124.
HOW TO
USE
1. On the Job Options tab, click Fonts....
2. Choose either Download as Outline Font or Download as Bitmap Font.

3. Check the Font Substitution checkbox to activate font substitution, or clear it to

deactivate this function. The TrueType and Printer Font panes list the fonts on your system and which fonts
will be substituted for them on the printer. If you click on one of the TrueType fonts in the list, its associated printer font will be highlighted. You can change this if you wish by clicking on a different printer font. Click Default to restore the default settings.
4. Click OK to confirm your changes.

ECURE PRINTING
Secure printing allows you to print confidential documents on printers that are shared with other users in a network environment.
The document does not print until a PIN (personal identification number) is entered through the printer control panel. You must go to the printer and enter the PIN.
This feature requires the hard disk drive in your printer, this device must be enabled in the printer driver.

UTO TRAPPING
Trapping is a technique which prints some object slightly larger or smaller than specified in an application, in order to prevent white edges around the objects. These white edges, or “halos”, can be caused by factors such as misregistration, the physical properties of the toner and the stiffness of the media. The Auto Trapping feature provides you with advanced trapping settings and gives you full control over their values.
For more information, see Color Printing manual.

MAGE SHIFT
Image Shift allows you to specify how much the image on each page should be shifted relative to the X (horizontal) and Y (vertical) axis. Moving the job content in this manner enables you to allow for various finishing options, such as stapling and binding. Image Shift prevents the image from being clipped.
NOTE
> The Image Shift option is available in Windows printer drivers or
Command WorkStation.
> This option is effective only for jobs in which Layout is set to 1-up.
To define image shift for a print job:
1. In the printer driver, enable the Image Shift check-box, and then click the Image Shift Options.
Print options – PostScript > 69

VOIDING INCOMPATIBILITY SITUATIONS
It is possible to request your MFP to carry out instructions that would involve media incompatibilities e.g. if you are copying an A4 original with the Reduce/Enlarge setting at 141% (A4 to A3) and the (printer unit) Tray Selection set at Tray 1 containing A4 media. The MFP will detect such situations and issue a message to indicate that your request has been cancelled referring you to this guide.
To avoid an incompatibility such as the above, make sure that your chosen image size fits on the media size in the selected printer unit tray.
Other incompatibilities can arise in connection with punching and stapling requests and information to help you avoid such requests is presented in “Appendix D – Media support
information” on page 146.
Information about document sizes that can be scanned either on the document glass or in the ADF when using the default Auto setting is provided in “Appendix E – Auto detection
paper sizes” on page 150.

NOTE
1. If you specify Auto for Original Size, the MFP automatically selects the paper size to match the original document. However, depending on the document conditions (for example, if the background density is high), document sizes may not be detected automatically. In this case, specify the document size manually.
2. If you specify Auto for Tray Selection, the MFP automatically selects the tray (from Trays 1 to 5) that can supply the most appropriate paper. To print on paper from the MPTray, specify MPTray for Tray Selection. If your copy is produced on paper you did not expect to be used, specify the appropriate tray manually and retry.
3. In Copy Mode, there are limitations on the combination of Media Type, Media Weight and Paper Size. For information on paper size combinations, refer to “Appendix D – Media support information” on page 146.
