Connections of the Print Controller
You can use the copier as a printer by connecting print controller to a
computer (using with Parallel connection) or a network (using with Ethernet
connection).
2.3.1
Parallel Connection
You can connect your Windows computer to the print controller via the
parallel port (IEEE 1284).
Once you set up the printer driver in the computer, you can print from it.
You can use the copier as a network printer by executing a print server
function or a printer sharing function on the computer that is connected to
the copier via parallel port.
2.3.2
Ethernet Connection
You can also connect the copier to computers supporting Ethernet.
Several alternatives can be considered in the Ethernet connection. In any of
them, you must set up the printer driver in each computer after configuring
the network (such as TCP/IP settings) for the print controller or the
computers.
The following print patterns are shown here as examples.
-
SMB printing, lpr/lpd printing, Direct printing, Raw (Port9100) printing
-
Printing in which AppleTalk from Macintosh is used.
-
IPP (Internet Printing Protocol) printing
-
Printing in which Novell NetWare is used.
