Overview
Printing flow
When using this printing system as a printer, the flow of the main process is
described below.
Print commands transmitted from the application are received by the printer
driver.
Data is transmitted to this machine over a parallel interface (IEEE 1284) when
this machine is used as a local printer, over a USB interface when this
machine is used as a USB printer, or over an Ethernet interface (TCP/IP,
IPX/SPX, or AppleTalk) when this machine is used as a network printer. The
printer controller then performs image rasterization (development of output
characters and images to bitmap data). Finally, this data is printed from this
machine.
