Before Using the Printer Driver
Before printing, you have to configure the following option:
y Configuration Settings
To use optional devices such as optional drawers, Finisher or Hole Punch Unit, you must first configure these devices.
The features of these optional devices are not available unless you tell the system that the optional devices are
installed.
Before printing, you can configure the following option if necessary:
y Department Code
You can use department codes to manage each job. For example, a system administrator can check how many sheets
of copies a certain department has made. When the Department code is enabled, you are prompted to enter a
department code before printing. If you enter the department code in the corresponding field in advance, you can print
without having to do this every time. Ask your administrator about the codes. When SNMP communication between
the equipment and your computer is enabled, you are also prompted to enter the code before printing.
