1 Before Using the Printer Driver
1.1 Features of the Controller
The controller is an image controller designed to use the machine as a
printer, allowing you to print documents directly to the machine from a
computer to which the controller is connected. The printer driver, which is
used during printing, is equipped with various functions that make the
most out of the features of the machine. They enable you to use the same
functions as those offered by the machine. When actually running a print
cycle, you can specify various functions of the machine on your computer
screen.
✎
Note
When using the controller, be sure to set the machine to the On Line
state.
Some functions offered by the machine cannot be combined, such as
Staple and Hole-Punch, and some others may not be used because of
a paper size involved. The functions that cannot be selected appear
dimmed.
Further, if functions that are incompatible with each other are speci-
fied, the Conflicts dialog box will appear, prompting you to change the
settings. When this dialog box appears, check the details and reselect
the functions to ensure function compatibility.
Some settings, which are defied by the machine for the restricted com-
binations of different functions, can at times be accepted by the printer
driver. If a print command is issued from the personal computer with
such settings made, the machine does not produce the output correct-
ly or abandons the job to produce nothing. Make sure that you make
correct settings.
