Using MFC

as Printer

Features

The Multi-Function Center offers you many features you’ll find in a high quality ink jet printer.

Fast Printing Speed—Using Draft mode, you can print 4 pages per minute in full color.

Brilliant 4-Color Output at 360 dpi—Printing at 360 dpi resolution on special coated paper or glossy paper gives you normal resolution output.

Brilliant 4-Color Output at 720 dpi—Printing at 720 dpi resolution on special coated paper or glossy paper gives you high resolution output.

Brilliant 4-Color Output at 1440 dpi—Printing at 1440 dpi resolution on special coated paper or glossy paper gives you highest resolution output.

Low Running Cost—Whenever you run out of a particular color ink, you’ll replace only the cartridge that’s empty.

Suitable Uses—You can print from both Windows and DOS operating systems. When you print from DOS, the MFC uses ESC/P2.

Bi-directional Parallel Interface—The parallel interface allows bi-directional (IEEE 1284 compliant) communication with your computer. This interface allows the MFC to communicate useful information, such as the amount of memory installed and other printing setup conditions, as the supplied Windows 3.1, 3.11, 95, 98 or NT® Workstation Version 4.0 drivers support bi-directional mode. Printer status is also reported.
