FIERY PRINT CONTROLLER
By installing the Fiery Print Controller, higher quality printing becomes possible. When this is done, the
regular printer driver cannot be used and other restrictions apply to the functions of the machine.
To ensure that the machine functions correctly, keep the Fiery Print Controller powered on even when you are
not using the Fiery print function.
■ Print functions
When the Fiery Print Controller is installed, regular print functions and Fiery Print Controller print
functions are as follows:
Print functions Regular print functions
Fiery Print Controller

PCL Disabled Enabled
PS Disabled Enabled
NOTE
● For the Fiery Print Controller to operate correctly, the port number of each protocol in the network settings must
be set to the initial value.
● The Fiery Print Controller is not equipped with a scanner function. To scan, use the regular scanner function
of the machine.
● When the Fiery Print Controller is installed, the tandem print function (using two machines, one as a master
machine and one as a slave machine, to print a very large print job) cannot be used.

For this reason, the [Printer] key below will not appear in the screen that opens when the [Filter by Job]
key is touched on the operation panel. (In the Web pages of the machine, "Print" will not appear in the
[Job Classification] menu in the document filing settings ([Document Operations] - [Document Filing]).)
