 Network settings can easily be configured from both the control panel and
Web utility, although there is no ping capability on the Web page to ensure
IP addresses have been set up properly.
 The Aficio 3260C includes a print controller that features a 733-MHz proces-
sor, while sharing the standard 1.38 GB of RAM and four 80-GB hard drives
(320 GB total) with the copier. The unit supports PCL 5c/6 and RPCS drivers,
as well as an optional Adobe PostScript 3 driver.
— Layout of the drivers is dissimilar, making use less convenient for those who
frequently switch among them.
 The drivers offer a good feature set that includes smoothing, toner-save
mode and the ability to produce originals of mixed orientation—portrait and
landscape—in a single job. Additionally, the drivers all support secure and
proof print, but scheduled print is not available.
 The drivers are easy to use, as most of the features required for a typical
print job are available from the main tab of the PCL driver, including quan-
tity, collate sets and finishing. In addition, the RPCS driver enables users to
save the settings for frequently used or complex jobs as icons on the main
screen, thus allowing selections for multiple features such as duplex, sta-
pling and booklet finishing with just one click.
 The PCL driver’s main screen is graphical, as users can opt for either pull-down
menus or icons that take them through each available setting when clicked
on in order to select the settings for Job Type, Orientation and Layout.
