Considerations and Limitations

y

When the User Management Setting is enabled on the equipment, the user name that is 

entered to login to your computer is used for the authentication of the print job. Therefore, 

your user name must be registered in the equipment. If the user name is not registered, your 

print job is processed as the invalid job according to the Department Code Enforcement set-

tings.

When the Windows Domain Authentication is used for the User Management Setting, your 

computer must log in the domain.

y

Some options listed in the printer driver can also be set from an application (for example, col-

lation).  However, using collation in the application may cause problems. In that case, use 

the driver option to perform the function, rather than setting it from the application. But 

depending on the application, settings such as the orientation may need to be set in the 

application, or the printer driver, or both.  The application may not set up the file properly for 

printing on this equipment and may also take longer to process. In order to print properly 

from the application that you are using, please see the section about printing in the applica-

tion’s manual.

y

When printing with the PS3 printer driver from Adobe Acrobat, the Fit to Paper enlargement 

feature does not work if the “Use PostScript Passthrough” option is enabled in the PostScript 

settings of the PS3 printer driver.  To use the Fit to Paper enlargement feature, please dis-

able the “Use PostScript Passthrough” option in the PostScript settings of the PS3 printer 

driver.

y

When printing with the PS3 printer driver from the application that creates the PostScript 

code for printing such as Adobe Acrobat, the following print options may not work correctly.  

In that case, please disable the “Use PostScript Passthrough” option in the PostScript set-

tings of the PS3 printer driver.

- Manual Scale

- Print Paper Size

- Paper Type

- Use Front Cover

- Use Back Cover

- Interleave Pages

- Insert Pages

- Booklet

- Multiple Pages per Sheet

- All options in the Effect tab

- All options in the Image Quality tab

How to Print

Once you have installed the printer driver and configured it properly, you can print directly from 

most Windows applications. Simply choose the Print command from within your application.

You can print using the various functions by setting print options on the printer driver.

Printing from Windows applications

The following describes an example for printing from NotePad on Windows XP.

1

Open a file and select [Print] from the [File] menu of the application.
