Graphic Options

Transfer Mode
Allows selecting the method used to download graphics to the printer. Basically, select the “TOPIX
compression” mode.
For the models which are not supporting the TOPIX compression mode, select “Uncompressed 8-bit
(overwrite)”.
The “TOPIX compression (XOR)” method improves the throughput by processing only a different part from
the previous page. Choose this option when you print a fixed format partly including variable data.
However, the throughput may not improve depending on the image to be printed.
Printer models supporting the TOPIX compression mode
• B-372 ROM version V2.4 or later
• B-472 ROM version V2.4 or later
• B-872 ROM version V1.3 or later
• The all versions of the other models than above.
