Before Using the Printer Driver

Before printing, you have to configure the following options:

y Configuration Settings

You have to configure such options as optional drawers, finisher, and hole punch unit. The features of these optional devices are not available unless you tell the system that the optional devices are installed.

y Department Code

This system can manage jobs by department code. This feature lets you manage job counters for every department code. For example, a network administrator can check the number of copies printed by a specific department member. If the Department Code is enabled, enter your Department Code provided by your administrator.

 Configuring the Options

To use this equipment properly, you need to save the configuration of the options installed on the [Configuration] tab menu after you installed the printer drivers. In the default setting, you can obtain the configuration data of options installed automatically by opening the [Configuration] tab menu. If you want to configure options manually, see the following page:

y If SNMP communication between this equipment and your computer is not available, configure options manually.

 P.10 “Configuring options manually”

If available, select [Manual] of [Enable SNMP Communication] on the [Configuration] tab menu, and then click [Update Now]. You can obtain the configuration data as you click it.

 Configuring options manually

If SNMP communication between this equipment and your computer is not available.

Setting the configuration tab manually

You need to log in Windows with the “Power Users” privilege (only for Windows 2000) or “Administrator” privilege (for Windows 2000/XP/Server 2003).

Select as follows: [Start] menu -> [Control Panel] -> [Hardware and Sound] -> [Printers]

y For Windows XP or Windows Server 2003

Select as follows: [Start] menu -> [Printers and Faxes]

For more information about each item, see descriptions about the Drawer Settings.  P.58 “Drawer Settings”

Click [Apply] and [OK] to save settings.

 Setting the Department Code

When this equipment is managed by department codes, you have to enter your department code on the printer driver. This allows a network administrator to check the number of copies printed by specific department members. Also users can check to see who submitted the print jobs, by using the Touch Panel Display and monitoring tools. Please ask your administrator whether or not you should enter the Department Code.

y When the User Management Setting is enabled on the equipment, the User Management Setting is used to

manage the print jobs instead of the department code. In that case, the user name that is entered to log in to your computer is used for the authentication of the print job. Therefore, you do not need to enter the department code in the printer driver but your user name must be registered in the equipment. If the user name is not registered, your print job is processed as the invalid job according to the Department Code Enforcement settings.

y If the No Limit Black function is enabled, you do not have to specify the department code when you print a

document with [Black and White] selected for the [Color] box in the Basic tab of printer driver.

y How the equipment performs printing for an invalid department code print job, for which an invalid department code

is specified, varies depending on the Department Code Enforcement setting that can be set in the TopAccess Administrator mode and whether SNMP communication is enabled or not. When SNMP communication is enabled and Department Code Enforcement is set to [ON], an error message will be displayed when entering an invalid department code. When SNMP communication is disabled and Department Code Enforcement is set to [ON], the invalid department code print job will be stored in the invalid department code print job list without printing. When the Department Code Enforcement is set to [Print], the invalid department code print job will be printed. When the Department Code Enforcement is set to [Delete], the invalid department code print job will be deleted without printing.

y A department code can be entered every time you begin printing. If you have to use a different department code

for each print job, enter it when you begin printing.

 P.15 “Considerations and Limitations”  P.16 “How to Print”

 Considerations and Limitations

y When the User Management Setting is enabled on the equipment, the user name that is entered to log in to your

computer is used for the authentication of the print job. Therefore, your user name must be registered in the equipment. If the user name is not registered, your print job is processed as the invalid job according to the Department Code Enforcement settings. When the Windows Domain Authentication is used for the User Management Setting, your computer must log in the domain.

y If the No Limit Black function is enabled, you do not have to specify the department code when you print a document

with selecting [Black and White] in the [Color] option in the Basic tab of printer driver.

y Some options listed in the printer driver can also be set from an application (for example, collation). However, using

collation in the application may cause problems. In that case, use the driver option to perform the function, rather than setting it from the application. Depending on the application, settings such as the orientation may need to be set in the application, or the printer driver, or both. The application may not set up the file properly for printing on this equipment and may also take longer to process. In order to print properly from the application that you are using, please see the section about printing in the application’s manual.
