1.MITSUBISHI Photo Suite
MITSUBISHI Photo Suite is a solution that allows you to print directly to a Mitsubishi K60
printer from your computer. Once the solution has been installed, you can print from any
application or from the operating system.
The MITSUBISHI Photo Suite solution is comprised of the “MITSUBISHI PrintModule”
and the “Advanced Settings” administration panel. When the PrintModule has been
initiated, it can be seen on the Windows toolbar. You can control all the print orders
requested from the PrintModule. In addition, you can view the printer status.
In the "Advanced Settings” module you can control the "PrintModuleService" which
deletes orders already completed. You can also define the interval in minutes during
which the completed orders will be deleted.
If you are unable to locate the “PrintModule” on the toolbar while printing, check that
the printer is properly installed and connected.

Users can request a specific number of completed orders to be kept permanently. To
prevent that number of completed orders from being deleted, change the “Finished
orders to keep” value and then press “Save” to save the changes.
