The imageRUNNER 2020i was tested with the standard PCL 5e/6 driver; the

UFR II LT driver is also standard. The drivers support Windows 98, 2000, Me, XP, Server 2003 and Novell NetWare. The PCL driver also supports Windows NT 4.0 and the UFR II LT driver supports Mac OS X or higher.

Most of the features used for typical print jobs are accessible on the main screen.

The well-designed drivers are graphical, enabling point-and-click selection of paper drawers.

The drivers offer a good feature set that includes proof print and the ability to save the settings for frequently used jobs.

The unit offers simultaneous RIP and print, with printing beginning while pages are still being processed.

File size remained the same when printing multiple sets, regardless of whether “collate” was selected from the properties screen of the driver or from the print screen within an application.
