Print Controller INSTRUCTION MANUAL 1-3
Chapter 1 Overview
Copy Mode, Printer Mode and Scanner Mode
The control panel of the main body printer can be used in any mode of the copy
mode, the printer mode or the scanner mode.
Even while the main body printer is printing or copying, the print controller can
receive the next job, and while the print controller is receiving a print job or a scan
job, you can use the copy mode.
Printer EKC
Printer EKC is a feature to manage the number of prints on the copier.
Setting the Printer EKC feature means that, provided you enter a password
previously established on the printer to request a print job, the copier counts up
printouts based on the EKC counter to know when a preset limit is hit, and also
rejects a print request from a client having no valid password.
E-RDH (Electronic Recirculating Document Handler)
The E-RDH system temporarily stores in memory the print data you select from
available options. The main body printer E-RDH is used to print from the print
controller.
The E-RDH memory is 64 MB (standard) and can be extended to 512 MB.
When using the E-RDH in the one-sided mode, printing will be performed simulta-
neously while the print controller rasterizes the pages in the print job and sends
them to the E-RDH memory. While pages are being printed from the E-RDH
memory, the print controller continues to rasterize the next print job in the se-
quence.
