6 Features and Functions
Features and Functions
Extensive Client Platform Support
This equipment supports printing from IBM-compatible PC, Macintosh, and UNIX workstations. Not all features are
supported on all platforms, however.
Various Port Options
You can map this equipment to print to an SMB, IPP, Raw TCP, or LPR port.
Multiple Job Types
Job Types refer to the way this equipment handles a print job.
yNormal mode requires no special handling and is the most frequently used printing mode.
yScheduled Print lets you specify the time and date at which to print a job.
yPrivate Print mode allows you to hold a job in the print queue until you enter a password at the copier touch panel to
print the job.
yProof Print mode prints the first copy of a multi-copy job and then awaits your approval before printing the remaining
copies.
yStore to e-Filing mode allows you to store the printed document in e-Filing.
yOverlay File prints a document element, such as text or graphics, to a file for superimposing on the background of
other documents.
Professional Finishing Options
Depending on the type of finishing units you have installed on this equipment, you can choose to sort, group, fold and
staple your documents (including saddle-stitching) and punch binding holes.
Sophisticated Document Layout and Assembly Options
You can choose whether to print your document as you have set it up in the application, or to impose printer-driven
document layout options such as printing in Book Format or printing Multiple Pages per Sheet.
Additionally, the printer drivers provide the ability to print selected pages on different media. This includes printing front
and back covers, inserting sheets at predefined positions within the document, or interleaving pages so that every other
page is inserted blank or printed on a different type of media.
Various Sizes of Printing Paper Available
You can use paper larger than the standard sizes defined in the custom paper size setting when you print data created
with applications. (Largest size: 12.00 x 47.24 inches (305 x 1200 mm))
Watermark and Image Overlay Support
Watermarks are a great way to subtly convey useful information about your printed documents. Common watermarks are
[Confidential,” [Draft,” and [Original.” Several watermarks have been pre-defined for use with your documents, or you can
create and save your own custom watermarks.
Watermarks consist of text. Image Overlays can be any combination of text, graphics or other document elements.
Printing watermarks consumes fewer resources than using Image Overlays, so you should use watermarks wherever
possible, particularly when printing speed is an issue.

10 Before Using the Printer Driver
Before Using the Printer Driver
Before printing, you have to configure the following options:
yConfiguration Settings
You have to configure such options as optional drawers, finisher, and hole punch unit. The features of these optional
devices are not available unless you tell the system that the optional devices are installed.
yDepartment Code
This system can manage jobs by department code. This feature lets you manage job counters for every department
code. For example, a network administrator can check the number of copies printed by a specific department member.
If the Department Code is enabled, enter your Department Code provided by your administrator.
Configuring the Options
To use this equipment properly, you need to save the configuration of the options installed on the [Configuration] tab menu
after you installed the printer drivers. In the default setting, you can obtain the configuration data of options installed
automatically by opening the [Configuration] tab menu. If you want to configure options manually, see the following page:
yIf SNMP communication between this equipment and your computer is not available, configure options manually.
P.10 “Configuring options manually”
If available, select [Manual] of [Enable SNMP Communication] on the [Configuration] tab menu, and then click [Update
Now]. You can obtain the configuration data as you click it.
Configuring options manually
If SNMP communication between this equipment and your computer is not available.
Setting the configuration tab manually
You need to log in Windows with the “Power Users” privilege (only for Windows 2000) or “Administrator” privilege (for
Windows 2000/XP/Server 2003).

Click [Apply] and [OK] to save settings.
Setting the Department Code
When this equipment is managed by department codes, you have to enter your department code on the printer driver.
This allows a network administrator to check the number of copies printed by specific department members. Also users
can check to see who submitted the print jobs, by using the Touch Panel Display and monitoring tools.
Please ask your administrator whether or not you should enter the Department Code.
yWhen the User Management Setting is enabled on the equipment, the User Management Setting is used to
manage the print jobs instead of the department code. In that case, the user name that is entered to log in to your
computer is used for the authentication of the print job. Therefore, you do not need to enter the department code in
the printer driver but your user name must be registered in the equipment. If the user name is not registered, your
print job is processed as the invalid job according to the Department Code Enforcement settings.
yIf the No Limit Black function is enabled, you do not have to specify the department code when you print a
document with [Black and White] selected for the [Color] box in the Basic tab of printer driver.
yHow the equipment performs printing for an invalid department code print job, for which an invalid department code
is specified, varies depending on the Department Code Enforcement setting that can be set in the TopAccess
Administrator mode and whether SNMP communication is enabled or not. When SNMP communication is enabled
and Department Code Enforcement is set to [ON], an error message will be displayed when entering an invalid
department code. When SNMP communication is disabled and Department Code Enforcement is set to [ON], the
invalid department code print job will be stored in the invalid department code print job list without printing. When
the Department Code Enforcement is set to [Print], the invalid department code print job will be printed. When the
Department Code Enforcement is set to [Delete], the invalid department code print job will be deleted without
printing.
yA department code can be entered every time you begin printing. If you have to use a different department code
for each print job, enter it when you begin printing.

P.16 “How to Print”
Considerations and Limitations
yWhen the User Management Setting is enabled on the equipment, the user name that is entered to log in to your
computer is used for the authentication of the print job. Therefore, your user name must be registered in the
equipment. If the user name is not registered, your print job is processed as the invalid job according to the
Department Code Enforcement settings.
When the Windows Domain Authentication is used for the User Management Setting, your computer must log in the
domain.
yIf the No Limit Black function is enabled, you do not have to specify the department code when you print a document
with selecting [Black and White] in the [Color] option in the Basic tab of printer driver.
ySome options listed in the printer driver can also be set from an application (for example, collation). However, using
collation in the application may cause problems. In that case, use the driver option to perform the function, rather than
setting it from the application. Depending on the application, settings such as the orientation may need to be set in the
application, or the printer driver, or both. The application may not set up the file properly for printing on this equipment
and may also take longer to process. In order to print properly from the application that you are using, please see the
section about printing in the application’s manual.
About "Use PostScript Passthrough"
yWhen printing with the PS3 printer driver from Adobe Acrobat, the Fit to Paper enlargement feature does not work if
the [Use PostScript Passthrough] option is enabled in the PostScript settings of the PS3 printer driver. To use the Fit to
Paper enlargement feature, please disable the [Use PostScript Passthrough] option in the PostScript settings of the
PS3 printer driver.
yWhen printing with the PS3 printer driver from the application that creates the PostScript code for printing such as
Adobe Acrobat, the following print options may not work correctly. In that case, please disable the [Use PostScript
Passthrough] option in the PostScript settings of the PS3 printer driver.

before printing the remaining copies and thereby reduce paper waste.
When printing from an application that sends a separate job for each number of copies, this equipment will print all
copies even if you set the Proof Print. In that case, set one copy for the number of copies for a proof print job in the
printer driver, and then change the number of copies from the Control Panel to print required copies of the print job.
- Print to Overlay File
Select this to save the print job as an overlay file that is imposed on other documents. When you select this, click
the button on the right and enter the file name.
For example, if you want to print a master page image on the background of a document, you can create an
overlay file of the master merge image using this option. Then you can print a document using this overlay by
specifying this file as an overlay image in the [Overlay Image] option of the Effect tab.
yIf the print job has several pages in the document, only the first page of the document will be saved as an
overlay file.
yBoth the overlay file and the documents on which you superimpose the overlay image must be created at the
same size, color mode.
yWhen creating an overlay file using the PS3 printer driver from an application that can create the PS command
directly, the overlay file will not be created properly. In that case, disable the [Use PostScript Passthrough]
option in the PostScript Settings dialog box.

your computer is used for the authentication of the print job. Therefore, you do not need to enter the department
code in the printer driver but your user name must be registered in the equipment. If the user name is not
registered, your print job is processed as the invalid job according to the Department Code Enforcement
settings.
yIf the No Limit Black function is enabled, you do not have to specify the department code when you print a
document with selecting [Black and White] in the [Color] option in the Basic tab of printer driver.
yIf the number of the printed sheets for a print job exceeds the output limitation for the entered department code,
the print job is stored in the invalid department code print job list without printing. When you want to print the
print job, perform printing from the [JOB STATUS] in the Control Panel by entering another department code for
which the output limitation is more than the number of printed sheets.
How the equipment performs printing for an invalid department code print job, which an invalid department code is
specified, varies depending on the Department Code Enforcement setting that can be set from TopAccess
Administrator mode and whether SNMP Communication is enabled or not. When SNMP Communication is
enabled and Department Code Enforcement is set to [ON], an error message will be displayed when entering an
invalid department code. When SNMP Communication is disabled and Department Code Enforcement is set to
[ON], the invalid department code print job will be stored in the invalid department code print job list without
printing. When the Department Code Enforcement is [Print], the invalid department code print job will be printed.
When the Department Code Enforcement is [Delete], the invalid department code print job will be deleted without

Making a Booklet
Printing in normal booklet mode produces a document that, when folded, becomes a properly paginated booklet or
magazine-style publication. You can even create bound booklets that are folded and stapled in the center.
For example, if you create a document on letter-size paper (8½ x 11 inches) and then print in booklet mode, the yield is a
5½-x-8½-inch booklet. Each page has been scaled to fit on half a sheet and reordered so that the booklet is properly
paginated when folded.
To retain your original document size when printing booklets, select the booklet size to be the same as your original
document size. Then, your 8½-inch document is printed on ledger size paper (11 x 17 inches) and reordered so that, when
folded, the yield is an 8½-x-11-inch booklet. You can select from the following page-size options when printing a tiled
booklet:
yLetter Booklet on Ledger
yA4 Booklet on A3
yB5 Booklet on B4
When Booklet printing is performed using the PS3 printer driver from an application that can create the PS command

yIf mis-printing occurs while multiple tab pages are printed continuously, toner may adhere to the reverse side of
paper. To avoid this, it is recommended to print tab paper as a separated job for each page so that this equipment
performs cleaning before printing the next tab paper.
yWhen printing tab paper, the tab paper may be caught in the exit of the inner tray because the roller failed to deliver
the tab extension to the exit. In that case, remove the tab paper before printing the next job.

Create a Letter sized or A4 sized document and place the text or object that should
appear on the tab extension as described below.
When you create a document for tab printing, place the text or object that should appear on the tab extension on
the right side of the document. You must place the text in the height that exactly fits the tab extension. Also the
right margin, a margin between the text and right edge of the document, must have more than 0.17 inch or 4.2 mm
space because the equipment cannot print in the space.

Printing from an Application
This section describes how to print from a UNIX workstation.
yWhen the User Management Setting is enabled on the equipment, the print jobs that are sent from UNIX
workstations are processed as invalid jobs according to the Department Code Enforcement setting.
yBefore attempting to print from a UNIX workstation, make sure all the UNIX Filters are installed in your workstation.
For instructions on how to install or set CUPS, refer to the Software Installation Guide.
Considerations and Limitations
yThis equipment acts only as a filter and not as a complete driver. The size and order of the printed pages cannot be
modified.
yThe UNIX filters do not support the following engine-supplied features:
- Enlarge/Reduce printing
- Rotate Sort
- N-up printing
- Watermarks
- Cover Sheets
- Sheet Insertion
- Scheduled Print
- Print to Overlay File
- Store to e-Filing
- Use Overlay Image
yLinux uses the lptap command to send a file to this equipment.
Since lp is not supported in all versions of Linux, the lptap command should be used instead.
yAIX supports printing using the qdaemon. This can be invoked by the user with the commands lp, lpr or qprt. In order
to use the filter, either lp or qprt should be used.
Printing Using LP Command
Use the lp command (lptap in Linux) to send a file to this equipment for printing. This command specifies various printer-
specific options using the -o option parameter on the command line. The lp command also sets other print options using
various other parameters. Use the man estcolor.1 command to display the online document that describes the various
options and parameters that can be set to configure printed output.
All the options are sent to this equipment at the start of a print job so, if the print file contains its own commands, they may
override the lp options.
Generic “lp” and “lptap” Options
How to print files
Enter the following “Ip” command to print files with the specified printer:
"lp -d <queuename> <filename>"
Copies
The number of copies of a print job is specified using the “-n <value>” parameter with the “lp” command. The default value
is determined by the “lp” command and it is always 1. The copies are always collated.
Title
The title that is printed on the banner page can be specified using the “-t <title>” parameter with the “lp” command. The
default value is determined by the “lp” command and it is often the name of the print file. If multiple files are printed using
the same “lp” command the default title is set to the name of the first file by the “lp” command.

General Options
The following options apply to all print files.
yOption commands are case sensitive and must be entered exactly as shown.
ySome printing functions may be disabled depending on the combinations of option commands because priority is
given to the specifications of this equipment over option commands.
Print Language
The “net_estcolor” program needs to know what printer language is used in each of the files that it is printing so that it can
issue the correct commands to select various options. The following options are valid for the print languages.
All PCL5e jobs automatically send the “<esc>&k2G” command to convert the line-feed character into a carriage-return -
line-feed sequence. If the PCL5e job contains some of its own escape sequences it may override this setting.
The default print language is “auto”.
Example: The command to specify that a file is PostScript is “lp -o ps filename”.
Stapling
The staple position can be specified using the following option.
Option Value Alternate Value Description
auto Each file to be printed is examined to see if it starts with
the “%!” sequence. If it does, then it is assumed that it is
a PostScript file, otherwise it assumes that it is a plain
text or a PCL6 file.
pcl The print file is always treated as a plain text or a PCL6
file.
postscript ps The file is always treated as a PostScript file.
raw The file is treated as a fully formatted file that already
contains all the necessary commands. The file is sent to
the printer without any modifications. In this mode no
other options are valid and a banner page is not printed.
Option Value Alternate Value Description
staple=0 Stapling is turned off.
staple=1 Staple in the top left corner of a portrait page and the
upper right corner of a landscape page.
staple=2 Put two staples on the left side of a portrait page or the
top side of a landscape page printed on long-edge-feed
paper. This command has no affect when the paper is
fed from the short-edge side.
staple=3 Staple in the bottom left corner of a portrait page and
the upper left corner of a landscape page.
staple=4 Staple in the top right corner of a portrait page and the
bottom right corner of a landscape page.
staple=5 Put 2 staples on the right side of a portrait page or the

the lower left corner of a landscape page.
staple=7 Put 2 staples on the top side of a portrait page or the
right side of a landscape page printed on short-edge-
feed large format (A3/Ledger) paper. This command
has no affect when the paper is fed from the long-edge
side or small paper size.
staple=8 Put 2 staples on the bottom side of a portrait page or
the left side of a landscape page printed on short-edge-
feed large format (A3/Ledger) paper. This command
has no affect when the paper is fed from the long-edge
side or small paper size.

Banner Page
A banner page is automatically generated for each file in each job. The banner page contains the following items. The
banner page is always sent as a PCL5e job.
yThe name of the user that submitted the print job.
yThe job ID number and from which workstation it was submitted.
yThe title of the job. This title can be specified using the “-t” option. The same title is used for every file within a job. The
default title is controlled by the “lp” command.
yThe name of the printer or its IP address.
yThe date and time when the job was printed according to the print server.
Only one copy of the banner page is printed for each file, even if a number of copies of the job are requested. The banner
page is sent to the equipment as a separate sub-job so that it is never stapled to the document.
The banner page is printed with the following settings.
yCopies = 1.
yStapling off.
yOrientation = portrait.
yDuplex off.
yPaper size as requested by the “-o” parameter or the printer’s default value.
yThe paper source and the media type for the banner page can be set to different values than the job’s paper source
and media type.
yAuto paper source selection or the requested banner page source or media type.
yOutput bin as requested by the “-o” parameter or the printer default value.
y6 lines per inch
yAuto-wrap on.
yAutomatic carriage-return when a line-feed is sent.
yThe banner page is designed to fit the paper bigger than Statement / A5.
The banner page uses the default paper size if paper is set to:
-Statement
-A5
-A6
-B5
-Postcard
yThe default is that the banner page is printed before the job so that it is in the correct stacking order.
yWhen the language is set to “raw” the banner is always disabled.
yThe paper source and the media type for the banner page can be set to different values than the job’s paper source
and media type. If a banner paper source is not specified then the auto source command is sent. If a banner media
type is not specified then no banner media type command is sent, so the printer’s default value will be used.
yIf the file being printed specifies the paper destination or the paper size internally the banner page may print to the
wrong output or on an incorrect paper size.
yHole punching cannot be applied to banner pages.
