Workstation Version 4.0 are available on the CD-ROM supplied with the MFC. You
can easily install them into your Windows

system using our installer program (see Quick Setup
Guide). The driver supports our unique compression mode to enhance printing speed in Windows
®
applications, and allows you to set various printer settings including economy printing mode and
custom paper size.
Enhanced Memory Management
The machine has its own Data Compression Technology, which automatically compresses graphic
data and downloads font data efficiently into the MFC’s memory. You can avoid memory errors and
print most full-page, 600 dpi graphic and text data, including larger fonts, with the machine’s
standard memory.
Printing From Your PC
Paper Tray
The machine’s paper tray can feed plain paper and transparencies. When the machine receives data
from your computer, it begins the print process by loading paper from the paper tray.
■ Select the print command from your PC.
Your PC sends a print command and data to the machine. The screen displays the date and time, and
RECEIVING DATA. If there are more pages, the machine begins to print the next page
automatically.
If your application software does not support your custom paper size, select the next larger paper
size. Then adjust the print area by changing the right and left margins in your application software.
(See Acceptable Paper, page 64.)
You may select the proper paper source, paper size, and orientation in your
application software.
When you use labels, envelopes, organizer paper, card stock or thicker
paper, be sure to use the manual feed slot.
