Available functions and compatible file types vary depending on the network environment to which the printer is
connected.
The following outlines the relationship between the connection environment and available functions.
Network environment and available functions
Available functions may differ depending on the printer’s operating environment and the device being used.
For example, if your network is not connected to the Internet, you cannot print contents on the web, even though you
can print data saved on the device.

File compatibility between different networks and OS types.
For example, Android devices can only print PDF and JPEG data through a local network connection. Other data types
can be printed by using remote printing over the Internet.
