PostScript
This is a page description language developed by Adobe Systems, Inc. It provides flexible font
functions and high-performance graphics, allowing higher quality printing. The initial version of
PostScript which was introduced in 1985 is currently referred to as Level 1. Level 2, which was
compatible with color printing and 2-byte languages such as Japanese, was introduced in 1990
while Level 3, which added compatibility to Internet, step-by-step implementation level, and PDF,
was brought out in 1996.
PPM (prints per minute)
This indicates the number of A4 size printouts that can be made in one minute.
Printer driver
The printer driver is software used for printing data created using application software. The printer
driver is contained in the supplied CD-ROM. Install the printer driver on the computer connected to
this machine.
Sleep 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, consumed power
is reduced to the minimum. The default setting of the preset time is 30 minutes (16/20 ppm model)
or 45 minutes (25 ppm model). You can use the operation panel to change this time.
SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol)
This is a protocol for transmission of e-mail over the Internet or an intranet. It is used for transferring

such as routers, computers, and terminals through the network that uses TCP/IP (Transmission
Control Protocol/Internet Protocol).
Status page
This lists machine conditions such as the machine’s memory, the total number of copies and prints,
and paper source settings. You can print the status page from the operation panel of this machine.
Subnet Mask
This is a 32-bit numerical value that defines which bits of the IP address specify the network
address for identifying the network.
TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol)
TCP/IP is a network protocol designed to define the way computers and other devices communicate
each other over a network.
USB (Universal Serial Bus)
This machine is equipped with USB interface that supports Hi-Speed USB 2.0. The maximum
transfer rate is 480 Mbps for high-speed data transmission.
