Software Switch Setting

1

The paper size should be identified using the CropBox value (trimming size) when PDF Direct Print is performed. In general use, the paper size is identified based on the MediaBox value (media size).

The paper size will be identified by using the CropBox value (trimmed size) for the PDF file.

2

When using the LPR command to group multiple print jobs in a single file, the operation terminates with an error and does not complete the output.

Regardless of the spool setting for the Controller, the job will be executed upon receiving the entire data (file). Note that this setting may slow down the printing performance.

Receivable Max. File Size per file is 2 GB for this operation. The change of this setting will not affect other larger files.

After the change, turn OFF/ON the sub power switch to apply the setting.

4

During output of multiple PostScript data in a single file over network, multiple data are grouped in a single job and output.

Ctrl-D will be taken as a job delimiter, and data will be output as multiple jobs.

5

During output of multiple PostScript data in a single file via USB interface, a single job is divided into multiple jobs and output. Or, an error page may be output instead.

Ctrl-D will not be taken as a job delimiter, and data will be output as a single job.

7

When outputting multiple jobs in one collective file,whether or not to distinguish the output as multiple jobs by treating the PJL JOBNAME and PJL EOJ NAME commands as separators should be selectable.

Setting value:

Off: Output in one collective file without dividing the output into multiple jobs.

The banner page will be output.

Note that the banner will also be output when using the LPR port from the printer driver.

17

When the original contains both the 5.5  8.5 long edge feed size and the 8.5  11 short edge feed size, the 8.5  11 short edge feed paper cannot be Z-folded even if specified.

The 8.5  11 short edge feed paper can be Z-folded even when the original contains both the 5.5  8.5 long edge feed size and the 8.5  11 short edge feed size.

25

When the original contains multiple sizes including the 8.5 11 long edge feed size, a print job using the PPD driver identifies that size as the 9 11 long edge feed size.

Output is made in the 8.5 11 long edge feed size.

26

Setting value:

Off: Allows you to register up to 50 CMYK-CMYK device link profiles.
When 51 or more CMYK-CMYK device link profiles are included in the database at startup, the system stores only the 50 items of which the registration date is later. The remaining 50 items are deleted (however, this setting is configured so that the profiles specified by color default cannot be deleted).

On: Allows you to register up to 100 CMYK-CMYK device link profiles.

On: Deletes the table of the oldest creation data and time from the list and registers a new CMYK-DLP profile when the maximum number of CMYK-DLP profiles have already been registered.
