Digiprint Monitor Function (Macintosh Only) - Ricoh C231 Service Manual

E. Most Windows 3.1 and all Win95 programs can support copy setting as described above if you are using
the customized DigiPrint driver provided. (Priport Models VT1800, VT2200, VT2250 and VT2400 can
not provide the page size mismatch feature described below.)
F. All Macintosh software applications can also pass the requested copy count to the Priport.
How to Implement and Use Page Size Selection: Models VT2600, VT3600 and VT3800
A. When the Priport is put On Line, it will check to see what paper size is loaded in the paper-input tray. If
the page size selected in the Controller does not match the paper size loaded in the Priport's input tray, the
Controller will change its page size setting to match the paper loaded. Any time you remove (or use) all
the paper from the paper input tray the Priport will go off line. When you load new paper and put the
Priport back On Line, it will again check the paper size loaded in the input tray against the page size
selected in the Controller.
B. With the DigiPrint driver installed in Windows 3.1 or Win95, you will be able to prevent large quantities
of "misprints". First of all, remember that if the Priport is On Line, the Controller has reset its page size to
match the paper loaded in the Priport's input tray.
- If the document image sent is larger than the paper loaded, the Priport will truncate the image on the
master to match the paper and reduce the requested copy count to 2. In this case, you need to change
the paper in the input tray to match the document and resend the print job.
- If the document image sent is smaller than the paper loaded, the Priport will create the complete
image on the master but when it prints, the image will be placed on the paper incorrectly and the
requested
copy count will be reduced to 2. In this case, you might be able to print correct copies off this
master.
To see if this is possible, load the correct size paper, and push the Proof button. If the image is
placed correctly on the paper in the Proof copy, you can then enter the desired number of copies
manual copy setting keys on the Priport control panel and push Print Start.
How to Use Image Overlay Function: Models VT2600, VT3600 and VT3800
A. Take the Priport off-line.
B. Place the original document on the glass or in the ADF that you wish combined with the computer
generated document and push the OverLay button.
C. Put the Priport back On-Line and send the document from the computer.
D. The Priport combines the image sent from the computer and the image from the original scanned
document into a single master to create the printed output.
5. DigiPrint Monitor Function : Macintosh only
When the DigiPrint Monitor is enabled, error conditions at the Priport that will prevent successful completion
of a print job are reported back to the user's screen. This feature is especially useful when the Priport and/or
Controller are distant from the Macintosh computer that generated the print job.
