Cassette mode
This is an operation mode for the MP tray. When
this mode is used, approximately 100 sheets of
plain paper can be fed continuously, the same as
for the cassette.
dpi (dots per inch)
This indicates the number of dots printed per
inch, and is the unit of printer resolution.
Ecoprint
This is a printing mode that controls toner
consumption. Pages printed in the Ecoprint mode
are lighter than pages printed in the normal
mode. The default setting is Off.
Emulation
This refers to emulation of manufacturers’
printers. The printer emulates operation of the
following printers: PCL, Line printer, IBM
Proprinter, DIABLO 630, EPSON LQ-850,
KPDL.
Expansion memory
This option is used to increase printer memory.
The printer has an expansion socket, into which
you can install a 32 MB, 64 MB, 128 MB, or
256 MB DIMM (Dual Inline Memory Module).
See your Kyocera Mita dealer to purchase the
DIMM that is best suited for use with this
printer.
First mode
This is an operation mode for the MP tray. When
the MP tray setting is set to first mode (priority
printing from the MP tray) with paper inserted
in the MP tray, the first paper will always feed
from there even if another paper source is
selected. The printer is set to the cassette mode
(another MP tray operation mode) as the factory
default, but you can change this setting from the
operator panel.
IEEE1284
This is a standard used when connecting a
printer to a computer, and was established by the
Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers
in 1994.
KIR (Kyocera Image Refinement)
This is Kyocera’s original smoothing function. It
uses software to enhance the printer’s resolution
and produce high-quality printing. The default
setting is On.
KM-NET VIEWER
This is a network management tool that can be
used with the Kyocera Mita FS series. You can
view information for printers connected to the
network using SNMP commands. KM-NET
VIEWER is contained on the CD-ROM supplied
with the printer.
MB (mega byte)
This unit is used to express data quantities and
memory capacities. 1 MB is equivalent to
1024 kB, or 1,048,576 bytes.
MP tray
This is an abbreviation for Multi-Purpose tray.
The MP tray is used instead of the cassette when
printing on envelopes, postcards, transparency
sheets, and labels.
Offline
The printer can receive data, but cannot print.
Turn the printer online if you want to print.
Online
The printer can output received data.
