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, Ap- pleTalk) when this machine is used as a network printer. The data is then de- livered 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.
