This machine supports the following three kinds of control commands:
Q UFR II Mode
UFR (Ultra Fast Rendering) is printing technology developed by Canon. High-speed
printing is made possible by sharing the processing of print data normally done by the
machine with the computer.
Q PCL Mode
PCL (Print Control Language), developed by Hewlett-Packard, is a command system for
controlling page printers. Command versions supported by this machine are PCL5e and
PCL6.
Q PostScript Emulation Mode
PS (PostScript), developed by Adobe, is a command system for controlling page printers.
This mode emulates the operation of a printer in conformance with PostScript. The
command version supported by this machine is PostScript emulation 3.
IMPORTANT
š To print in the above printer modes, a Printer Driver supported by this machine must be
installed.
š In the above printer modes, "Settings Menu" and either "UFR II Settings," "PCL Settings,"
or "PS Settings" are available from the touch panel display. For settings with these
menus, see Chapter 3, "Printer Settings Menu."
Printing With Direct Print
Printing with Direct Print can also be done with this machine. Direct Print is a print
function that enables you to send PS/EPS, TIFF/JPEG, and PDF format files
without using a printer driver from the computer to the machine, which recognizes
the file. Therefore, you can print without the need to open files.
You can specify PS/EPS, TIFF/JPEG, and PDF files to be printed from a Remote
UI. You can print a PDF file by specifying the location on your computer or URL
from the Remote UI.
You can also use the Direct Print function by entering a command (LPR command)
in the command prompt.
