Instructions for Use (Printer Driver) 
This printer driver is subject to the following res trictions. Keep the following points in mind when u sing
the printer driver. 
Restrictions on the Printer Driver 
Depending on the document type to be printed, the p aper feed method specified in the printer driver
may not operate correctly. 
If this happens, open the 
printer driver setup window from the Print dialog box of the application
software, and check the setting in the Paper Source field  on the Main tab. 
W ith some applications, the Copies setting in the Page Setup tab of the printer driver may not be
enabled. 
In this case, use the copies setting in the Print d ialog box of the application software. 
If the selected Language in the About dialog box do es not match the operating system interface
language, the driver screen may not be displayed pr operly. 
Do not change the Advanced tab items of the printer pr operties. If you change any of the items, you
will not be able to use the following functions correctly.

Prevent loss of print data in the Print Options dialog  box 
Page Layout, Poster, Booklet, Duplex Printing (manua lly), Specify Margin..., Print from Last Page,
Collate, and Stamp/Background... (Stamp...) on the P age Setup tab 
Since the resolution in the preview display differs from the printing resolution, text and lines in the
preview display may appear different from the actual  print result. 
W ith some applications, the printing is divided into multiple print jobs.
To cancel printing, delete all divided print jobs. 
If image data is not printed correctly, display the Pri nt Options dialog box from the Page Setup tab

problem.
