Making Option Settings for the Printer
Make option settings for the printer using the printer driver when bidirectional
communication is disabled.
Conditions for Bidirectional Communication
Bidirectional communication allows information about paper size and feed di-
rection settings to be automatically sent to the printer. You can check printer sta-
tus from your computer.
• Bidirectional communication is supported by Windows 95/98/Me/2000/XP,
Windows Server 2003/2003 R2, and Windows NT 4.0.
• If you use the RPCS printer driver and bidirectional communication is en-
abled under Windows 2000, the
[

]
tab is unavailable.
Note
❒
The RPCS printer driver supports bidirectional communications and updates
the printer status automatically.
❒
The PostScript 3 printer driver does not support bidirectional communica-
tions.
To support bidirectional communication, the following conditions must be met:
❖
When connected with the network
• DeskTopBinder Lite must be installed, or the Standard TCP/IP port must
be used.

the

]
tab with the RPCS printer driver.
If the Standard TCP/IP port is not being used, one of the following conditions
must be met in addition to the two above:
• The SmartDeviceMonitor for Client port and the TCP/IP protocol must be
used.
• The standard TCP/IP port must be used without changing the default port
name (for Windows 2000 / XP and Windows Server 2003).
• Microsoft TCP/IP print IP address must be specified for use (for Windows
NT 4.0).
❖

The printer must be connected to the computer’s USB port using the USB in-
terface cable.
