PART NAMES AND FUNCTIONS

Other optional equipmentPeripheral equipment used when the machine is connected as a computer printer
Print controller (AR-P16)

This is required to add printing or network scanning capability to a machine not equipped for printing as standard. This board also functions as a printer controller that is required for use of the network scanner function.

Print server card (AR-NC5J)

This NIC card (Network Interface Card) is required to connect a machine equipped with a print controller for network printing and network scanning functions.

Network scanner expansion kit (AR-NS2)

 

This kit is required to add the network scanner

 

1

function. (The network scanner function is

scheduled to be supported in the spring of 2003.)

Hard disk drive (AR-HD4)

 

 

This must be installed to use the job retention

 

function, which is used to temporarily hold print

 

data rather than immediately printing it out. The

 

hard disk drive is also required for the network

 

scanner function.

 

Models that have the printer controller as a

 

standard feature are also equipped with a built-in

 

hard disk drive.

 

Peripheral devices are basically optional, but are incorporated in some models as standard equipment.

Face-up and face-down output

After printing, the paper is delivered to the exit tray. This product has two exit trays (center tray and left tray). The paper specifications (page 8-3)and output conditions differ for each tray; however, if the paper and output conditions are such that the paper can be delivered to either tray, you can select the tray to which the paper will go.

Paper exits to the center tray face-down only.

Paper exits to the left tray face-up only. However, if a duplex bypass/inverter unit has been installed, face- down output is also possible. In this case, face-up or face-down output is automatically selected according to the paper and output conditions (it is not possible to manually select face-up or face-down.)
