About This Driver
This is a generic printer driver that supports various devices. You can use the same driver for all printer models
by changing the settings for the printing port and device information.
Features
Information regarding the functions and options of the device are collectively dened in a "conguration
prole." By switching "conguration proles," you can switch the driver settings screen to match the
functions of the device.
You do not need to reinstall the driver when you add or replace a device.
Utilizing Conguration Proles
Conguration proles corresponding to each printer model have been prepared beforehand. You can
customize and use a conguration prole corresponding to your printer operation management.
By applying a conguration prole to the driver, the settings in the [Device Settings] sheet can be changed and
the functions specic to the device can be set. You can also export and save the function and option settings for
the device in the [Device Settings] sheet as a conguration prole.
Examples of How to Utilize Conguration Proles
Making a driver settings screen for the printer model you are using
When you can acquire the printer model information from the device, a conguration prole is applied
automatically and the settings screen changes to match the device. When you cannot acquire the information,
apply a conguration prole manually.
Eciently conguring driver settings for multiple computers
You can export and save the device function and options settings of the [Device Settings] sheet as a
conguration prole. The device information of drivers used in other computers can be easily batch set by
importing the exported conguration prole.
If you cannot acquire the device information, you can apply it by importing a conguration prole exported in
an environment where the information could be acquired.

Prerequisites
Conrm that the following conditions are satised. Make sure all preparations have been completed.
Driver installation
Conrm the name or IP address of the device (if adding a standard TCP/IP port).
To add a standard TCP/IP port, you need to enter the name or IP address of the device. For the name of the
device, use the name by which the device is known on the network. If you do not know the device name or IP
address, check with your network administrator.
Determining the protocol to use
Raw: A protocol that can be used with Windows. It transmits data at a higher speed than LPR.
LPR: The protocol commonly used by TCP/IP.

Setting Device Information
This explains the procedure for setting options installed in the device and making functions exclusive to the
device usable. First, apply the conguration prole that matches the printer model to the driver, and change the
settings in the [Device Settings] sheet. Next, set the device function and option information. If you can use the
acquire device information function, the function and option information of the device can be set automatically.
Perform a response according to the situation as shown below.
If you installed using the installer with a network connection:
Normally, when installing, device information is acquired, and the conguration prole and device function
and option information is automatically set. According to the following procedure, check that the
conguration prole that matches the printer model is applied and that [Device Information] is set to [Auto].
If you installed using the installer with a USB connection:
During installation, the conguration prole corresponding to the printer model is automatically set. The
acquire device information function is not supported in USB environments. According to the following
procedure, check that the conguration prole that matches the printer model is applied and set the device
function and option information manually.
If the device information was not acquired during installation, or if you cannot use the device
functions and options:
According to the following procedure, set the conguration prole and device function and option
information automatically or manually.
If you have added an option to the device:
According to the following procedure, check that the conguration prole that matches the printer model is
applied and set the added option automatically or manually.
If you change the printer model you are using:
After changing the port, and set the conguration prole and device function and option information
automatically or manually, according to the following procedure.
Prerequisites
