Special Printing Features

Printing
The dedicated printer driver and TrueType™ compatible fonts for Microsoft ®
Windows ® 95/98/98SE and NT4.0/2000 Professional are available on the CD-
ROM supplied with your MFC. You can install them easily into your Windows ®
system using our installer program. The driver supports our unique
compression mode to enhance printing speed in Windows
® applications, and
allows you to set various printer settings, including economy printing mode and
custom paper size.
Popular Printer Emulation Support
The MFC supports HP LaserJet IIP printer emulation mode. If you use DOS
application software, you can use HP LaserJet IIP emulation mode for printer
operations. (Use the Remote Printer Console program to set the printer
emulation.)
Remote Printer Console Program for DOS
The MFL Pro Suite CD-ROM supplied with your MFC includes the utility
program Remote Printer Console (RPC). When you operate your computer in
the Disk Operating System (DOS) environment, RPC lets you easily change the
Brother MFC’s default settings (such as fonts, page setup, emulations, etc.).
RPC also provides a status monitor Terminate-and-Stay Resident (TSR)
program. It runs in the background and monitors the printer status as it reports
the current status or errors on your PC screen.
Bi-directional Parallel Interface
The Brother MFC’s parallel interface enables it to send memory and printer
setup information to the computer.
Enhanced Memory Management
The Brother MFC has its own Data Compression Technology, which
automatically compresses graphic data and downloads font data efficiently into
the MFC’s memory. With the MFC’s standard memory, you can avoid memory
errors and print most full-page, 600 dpi graphic and text data, including larger
fonts.
