Overview
Characters that could be entered on the software keyboard displayed on the conventional control panel can be entered using a USB connected keyboard.
- When the software keyboard window is displayed, characters can be entered from the USB keyboard (in-line entry not possible).
- When the software keyboard window is not displayed, entered characters will not be remembered.
- Only characters that can be displayed on the software keyboard will be accepted from the USB keyboard (entries that cannot be displayed on the software keyboard,
such as Function key input, etc., will be ignored).
- Even if characters are entered from the USB keyboard, the software keyboard window will not change (the corresponding key does not invert or change colour).
- Input from the USB keyboard can be accepted at the same time as input from the software keyboard or numeric keys.
- The USB keyboard can be plugged in or unplugged at any time (plug and play).
- In some localities, extant USB keyboards being used by MEAP applications cannot be used at the same time as newly supported native (main unit functionality)
USB keyboards. In the system administration settings, it is necessary to select either the MEAP application keyboard or the native keyboard.
- When using a USB keyboard with native functionality, it is necessary to make changes to the operating mode settings in user mode. In such cases, MEAP appli-
cations that use the conventional MEAP USB drivers described above cannot use USB keyboards.
- As regards MEAP applications that can use MEAP standard software keyboards, the USB keyboard can be used along with native functionality.
* The SSO, SSO-K and SDL Login applications provided by Canon Inc. use software keyboards, so they are able to use USB keyboards.
MEMO:
The factory shipment default prioritizes compatibility with devices in the field, so the setting is to enable the use of MEAP application keyboards. Therefore, in order
to use native (main unit functionality) USB keyboards, [Use MEAP driver for USB input device] under [System management settings (initial settings/ registration)]
needs to be set to OFF (factory shipment setting is ON).
Operations change as described below in accordance with ON/ OFF settings.
ON: when using MEAP application keyboard (factory shipment default)
OFF: when using native (main unit functionality) keyboard
