1.3Configuring the Printer
This section explains how to set and confirm the printer’s configuration
from the Remote Operation Panel utility. The value set from the Remote Operation Panel utility becomes the printer’s default setting. However,
when printing, the printer may automatically switch to another setting,
depending on the application software or printer driver settings.
1.3.1Basic Settings for the Remote Operation Panel
Before operating the Remote Operation Panel, you can change settings for
polling, error notification, and whether you want to use the 3D virtual
printer to monitor the printer status.
Click the SETUP button on the start-up screen.

Configuring the Printer
The KM-NET Remote Operation Panel dialog appears. Read the
2
following explanations, then make the appropriate settings.
This allows the Remote Operation Panel utility to obtain and display
information about the printer, such as the open/closed state of the top
cover, that is output automatically by the network interface card in the
printer. This requires that the network output of status information by the
network interface card be enabled. To do this, click on the Browse NIC Web Page button to call up SNMP trap notification from the network interface
card homepage.
Polling
Polling
PollingPolling
With Polling activated (check box checked), the Remote Operation Panel
