IP Address
The Internet Protocol address is a unique number that is assigned to each computer in a network.
The format of an IP Address is four numbers separated by dots, e.g. 192.168.110.171. Each
number should be a decimal between 0 and 255.
IPP (Internet Print Protocol)
This enables output to the printer from a printer driver over the Internet or an intranet and via an IPP
port. Using IPP, output to a remote printer is possible over the Internet.
KIR
This is Kyocera Mita’s original smoothing function. It uses software to enhance the printer’s
resolution and produce high-quality printing. The default setting is On.
KPDL
This is Kyocera Mita’s page description language compatible with Adobe PostScript Level 3.
Logical Printer
This is a software interface that exists between the Windows OS and the printers connected to it. A
printer refers to the actual device that prints out, while a logical printer refers to the software
interface that resides on the print server. By using this interface, the method of processing print jobs
as well as the method of sending that job to its destination (local port, network port, file or remote
printer sharing) is determined. When printing a document, the document data is first spooled
(stored) in the logical printer from which it is then sent to the actual printer.
Low power mode
This mode is provided for power saving. This mode is activated when operation on the main body
and transmission or reception of data do not occur for a preset time. In this mode, the machine
consumes less power than in the standby mode. The default setting of the preset time is 15 minute.
You can use the operation panel to change this time.
Multi-bypass tray
This is a paper feed tray located at the left side of the main body. When printing onto envelopes,
postcards, transparencies or labels, set them in the multi-bypass tray instead of the cassette.
NetBEUI (NetBIOS Extended User Interface)
This is a network protocol developed by International Business Machines Corporation in 1985 and
an enhanced version of the NetBIOS protocol. It gives higher performance on small-scale networks
than other protocols such as TCP/IP. However, because it does not provide the routing function that
selects the most appropriate route from among multiple routes, it is not proper for large-scale
network configurations. Since NetBEUI is the standard protocol of IBM’s OS/2 and Microsoft
Corporation's Windows series, these companies offer file sharing and printing services that utilize
NetBEUI.
Outline font
With outline fonts, character outlines are represented with numerical expressions and fonts can be
enlarged or reduced in different ways by changing the numeric values of those expressions. Printing
remains clear even if you enlarge fonts, since the characters are defined with outlines represented
with numerical expressions. You can specify the font size in steps of 0.25 points up to 999.75 points.
Parallel interface
With this interface, data transfer between this machine and a computer takes place in 8-bit chunks.
This machine can perform IEEE1284 compatible bi-directional communications.
