PRINTER/SCANNER

FUNCTIONS

The machine includes a USB connector as standard equipment.

The machine has the following features:

•High-speed data transfer (when connected to a USB 2.0 connector)

•ROPM* function

*ROPM is an acronym for "Rip Once Print Many" processing. The ROPM function stores multiple pages of print data in memory before printing. When printing multiple copies, this eliminates the need for the computer to repeatedly transmit the print data.

To use the machine as a printer or scanner, the printer driver or scanner driver must first be installed as explained in the "INSTALLING THE SOFTWARE".

• If a problem occurs in printer or scanner mode, see the Online

Note Manual.

•When using USB 2.0 (Hi-Speed mode), be sure to read "System requirements for USB 2.0 (Hi-Speed mode)" (below) to verify that your system and the machine settings are configured appropriately.

System requirements for USB 2.0 (Hi-Speed mode)

The following system is required to use USB 2.0 (Hi-Speed mode):

•Your computer must be running Windows 2000 Professional/XP/Vista and the Microsoft USB 2.0 driver must be installed.

•The "USB 2.0 MODE SWITCH" setting in the machine's user programs must be set to "HI-SPEED". To change the setting, see "USB 2.0 MODE SWITCH" in the

user programs (p.58).

* Even when the Microsoft USB 2.0 driver is installed, some USB 2.0 expansion cards

are not capable of attaining the speed stipulated by the Hi-Speed standard. This

problem can often be fixed by installing a more recent driver for the card. To obtain

 

the most recent driver for your card, contact the card's manufacturer.
