Printer Controller
22.1
2 Overview
2.1 Printer Controller
The printer controller is a device that enables the printing function on this machine.
2.1.1 Roles of the printer controller
Incorporating the printer controller enables this machine to function as a printing system, which enables print-
ing through the use of applications loaded on the computer connected to this machine. When using this ma-
chine as a network printer, you can print using applications loaded on the computer.
The printer controller provides the following functions:
-Printing data sent from a printer driver on a computer
-Printing via the network using Web service (Windows Vista/7/8.1/10/Server 2008/Server 2008 R2/Serv-
er 2012/Server 2012 R2), LPR or IPP printing
-Configuring settings for this machine and the printer controller from a client computer via the network
(using a Web browser)
-Controlling the number of pages to be printed (Account Track functions)
-Fax transmission direct from a computer (PC-FAX transmission)
dReference
The PC-FAX transmission requires optional Fax Kit FK-510 and Extended Operation Panel MK-750. For
details on the PC-FAX transmission, refer to the [User's Guide Fax].

2.1 Printer Controller 2
2.1.2 Flow of printing
The following outlines the flow of operations for using this printing system as a printer.
Print data sent from an application is received by the printer driver.
The data is sent to this machine via the USB interface for USB connection or Ethernet (TCP/IP) for network
connection. Then the data is passed from this machine to the printer controller. The printer controller raster-
izes images (expands output target characters and images to bitmap data). This data is printed from this ma-
chine.
When a print job is received during copying, the data is stored in the memory of this machine. When the cop-
ying is completed, the print job is automatically printed.
