6 Features and Functions
Features and Functions
Extensive Client Platform Support
This equipment supports printing from IBM-compatible PC, Macintosh, and UNIX/Linux workstations. Not all features are
supported on all platforms, however.
Various Port Options
You can map this equipment to print to an SMB, IPP, Raw TCP, WSD, or LPR port.
Multiple Job Types
Job Types refer to the way this equipment handles a print job.
yThe Normal mode requires no special handling and is the most frequently used printing mode.
yScheduled Print lets you specify the time and date at which to print a job.
yThe Private Print mode allows you to hold a job in the print queue until you enter a password at the copier touch panel
to print the job.
yThe Hold Print mode allows you to hold a job in the hold queue until you continue the job from the touch panel.
yThe Proof Print mode prints the first copy of a multi-copy job and then awaits your approval before printing the
remaining copies.
yOverlay File prints a document element, such as text or graphics, to a file for superimposing on the background of
other documents.
yThe Store to e-Filing mode allows you to store the printed document in e-Filing.
yThe Multiple Job Type feature allows you to print jobs of more than one type together. For example, you can store a
job in the specified e-Filing and print it at the specified time by combining Scheduled Print and Store to e-Filing.
These functions below are available only when the hard disk is installed in the equipment.
- Scheduled Print
- Private Print
-Hold Print
-Proof Print
- Store to e-Filing
- Multiple Job Type
Professional Finishing Options
Depending on the type of finishing units you have installed in this equipment, you can choose to sort, group, fold and
staple your documents (including saddle-stitching) and punch binding holes.
Sophisticated Document Layout and Assembly Options
You can choose whether to print your document as you have set it up in the application, or to impose printer-driven
document layout options such as printing in Book Format or printing Multiple Pages per Sheet.
Additionally, the printer drivers provide the ability to print selected pages on different media. This includes printing front
and back covers, inserting sheets at predefined positions within the document, or interleaving pages so that every other
page is inserted blank or printed on a different type of media.
Various Sizes of Printing Paper Available
You can use paper larger than the standard sizes defined in the custom paper size setting when you print data created
with applications.
Watermark and Image Overlay Support
Watermarks are a great way to subtly convey useful information about your printed documents. Common watermarks are
“Confidential,” “Draft,” and “Original.” Several watermarks have been pre-defined for use with your documents, or you can
create and save your own custom watermarks.
Watermarks consist of text. Image Overlays can be any combination of text, graphics or other document elements.
Printing watermarks consumes fewer resources than using Image Overlays, so you should use watermarks wherever
possible, particularly when printing speed is an issue.
