Overview 1
Printing flow
When using this printing system as a printer, the flow of the main process is described below.
Print commands transmitted from the application are received by the printer driver.
Data is transmitted to this machine over a USB interface when this machine is used as a USB printer, or over
an Ethernet interface (TCP/IP, IPX/SPX, AppleTalk) when this machine is used as a network printer. The data
is then delivered from this machine to the printer controller, which performs image rasterization (development
of output characters and images to bitmap data). Finally, this data is printed from this machine.
Original documents can be scanned in the copy function or network scan function while this machine is
operating as a printer.
To use this machine as a copier, press the [Copy] key on the control panel.
When a print job is received during copying, the data is stored in the memory of this machine. When copying
is complete, the print job is automatically printed.
