Printer Settings
Specify a printer on the print server.
For more details, refer to "3.6.8 Setting the Network Printers" in the "Network Scanner fi-6000NS
Operator’s Guide".
ATTENTION
When using a network printer, note the following.
•
This scanner can print on a printer connected to the print server. In
addition, the scanner cannot print directly to a network printer.
•
Be sure to read the printer manual beforehand for information about setting
the printer, adding a network printer, and other cautions.
•
The driver installed on the print server must be compatible with Windows
XP. To check whether the drivers installed on the the print server are
Windows XP compatible drivers, display the [Additional Drivers] screen in
the printer properties and check that the "Processor" is "x86" (or intel), and
that "Installed" is "Yes" for version Windows XP.
•
If the drive on which the spool folder for the print server exists does not
have enough free space, printing will stop. Make sure that there is enough
space in the drive before printing.
•
For the printing function, the properties data spedified for the printer on the
print server is downloaded and used by the scanner. The propeties
downloaded to the scanner are displayed in the print properties
[Description] - [Standard settings]. The same printer can be specified more
than once with different propeties settings.
•
If a printer connected to different print servers is to be registered as a
network printer multiple times, the software level of the driver should be the
same on each print server. If the software level of the printer driver differs,
printing errors may occur.
•
The default network printer alias will be the same as the alias selected from
the network tree.
•
Once the network printer is registered, do not change the shared name or
printer alias on the print server.
•
To change the shared name or printer alias, remove the registered network
printer first, and then change the shared name/printer alias, and reigster it
again.
•
Do not set a virtual printer. Virtual printer is a printer device which uses
software to emulate the upper interface of a printer driver of an actual
printer. Data from an application to be printed is output and saved in pdf or
bmp format by the software driver that emulates the actual printer.
