36 Key Selling Points
Mac environments and is advantageous where
advanced Desktop Publishing Applications like
Quark and Adobe InDesign are used.
Mail to Print
(requires PS3 option)
Mail to Print is a new feature that enables
users to send an email with attached data
directly to the MFP for printing. Perfect for
offices where staff don’t all have access to PC,
this feature allows documents to be printed
without the need to open them.
This feature might prove beneficial in a
centralised administration centre where
documents generated in regional offices can
be printed directly to the centralised
administration department’s MFP for action.
Mobile Driver
(requires PS3 option)
A ‘mobile driver’ is a common driver that can
be used for all Aficio MFPs and printers
configured with the PS3 print option. The
advantage of the driver is that a single easy-
to-use print interface can be used across a
number of different machines. Field based
staff calling into branch offices with different
Aficio devices do not need machine specific
print drivers . Using the mobile driver they can
print easily to any PS3 configured Aficio
device.
PDF Direct Print (requires PS3 option)
A feature of the PostScript option, PDF Direct
Print enables PDF documents to be printed
without being opened at the PC, reducing
network traffic and the time taken for data
transfer. Although PDF files are relatively
small, when changed to print data they
become larger and can place unnecessary
load on the network. A 325KB PDF file can, for
example, become a 2.18MB print file when
printed through a windows driver. PDF Print
Direct solves this problem by allowing the
printer controller to receive the PDF file
directly from the PC and generate printable
data in the controller. The network traffic (load
transmission) will be reduced and productivity
increased.
Black-Over-Print
The Black-Over-Print feature renders black
toner over a full background image for litho
quality overlays. It helps avoid unsightly print
effects like haloing (where a white background
is visible behind black text laid over an image).
CLP Colour Simulation
The Colour Simulation feature allows the
Aficio MP C6000 and MP C7500 to emulate
HP laser printer profiles for consistent colour
output across multiple production devices.
This feature may prove useful when selling
into an environment where there are already
HP Colour Laser Jet printers as it will show
that the Aficio can produce output of similar
appearance to the HP.
Bonjour
Bonjour is Apple Computer's version of
ZeroConf (Zero Configuration Networking), a
set of protocols that enables a device on an IP
network to automatically recognize and
connect with other devices on the network. To
the end user, this means that when a new
device connects to the network, every
computer on the network is able to use it
instantly without any setup or special
configuration. Bonjour uses IETF standards for
both Link Local Addressing (LLA) and
Multicast DNS (mDNS). mDNS allows the new
device to advertise its existence and the
services it offers. LLA looks around,
negotiates with other devices on the subnet,
and picks a suitable IP address for the device.
Bonjour provides users with the following three
solutions:
Addressing (allocating IP addresses to
hosts)
Naming (using names to refer to hosts
instead of IP addresses)
Service discovery (finding and using
services on the network)
