Splitting a print job across two pieces of equipment (Tandem Printing)
This feature splits one print job across two pieces of equipment to print it by means of copies.
If you have to print documents with a large number of pages in a large number of copies, for example, you can have two
pieces of OKI MFP series equipment on a network share this job to print by copies simultaneously, so that it can be done
in a shorter time.
