Displaying Optional Accessory Configuration
and Paper Tray Settings
When using this printer as a network printer and with SNMP protocol
enabled, you can display on the printer driver, the optional
accessory configuration and settings configured at the control panel
such as paper type or size. These settings are displayed on the
[Options] tab. This section explains the procedure using Windows XP
as an example.
Important:
•
When using USB or Parallel connection to this printer, this
feature cannot be used. You have to manually set the items
on the printer driver.
•
The rear tray information cannot be obtained. You have to
manually set the item.
•
For paper size and paper type settings, you must configure
them at the control panel beforehand. Even if you change
the settings here, they will not be reflected on the printer
itself.
Note
• When using this feature, you have to activate the SNMP
port (default: [Enable]) on the printer using the control
panel.
• For Windows NT 4. 0/Windows 2000/Windows XP, only
users with administrator’s rights can change the
settings. Users without administrator’s rights can only
check the contents.
