Glossary
Accessibility
The machine is designed featuring good accessibility even for the  elderly and those who are physically 
challenged or visually impaired. Touch panel characters  can be enlarged while the touch panel is adjustable in 
two angles. 
AppleTalk
AppleTalk, which comes with Apple Computers Mac OS, is  a network protocol. AppleTalk enables file/printer 
sharing and also enables you  to utilize application software that is on  another computer on the same AppleTalk 
network. 
Auto Form Feed Timeout
During data transmission, the machine ma y sometimes have to wait until receiving the next data. This is the auto 
form feed timeout. When the preset timeout passes, the machine automatically put paper out. However, no 
output is performed if the last  page has no data to be printed. 
Auto Paper Selection 
A function to automatically select paper in the same size as original at printing
Auto Sleep Mode
A mode designed for electrical power saving, activated  when the machine is left unused or data transfer for a 
specific period. In Sleep mode, power consumption is kept to a minimum.
Bonjour
Bonjour, also known as zero-configuration networking, is a service that automatically detects computers, 
devices and services on an IP network. Bonjour, becau se an industry-standard IP protocol is used, allows 
devices to automatically recognize each  other without an IP address being specified or DNS server being set.  
Bonjour also sends and receives network packets by UDP po rt 5353. If a firewall is enabled, the user must check 
that UDP port 5353 is left open  so that Bonjour will run correctly. Some firewalls are set up so as to reject only 
certain Bonjour packets. If Bonjour does not run stably, ch eck the firewall settings and ensure that Bonjour is 
registered on the exceptions list and that Bonjour pa ckets are accepted. If you install Bonjour on Windows XP 
Service Pack 2 or later, the Windows firewall will be set up co rrectly for Bonjour.
Default Gateway
This indicates the device, such as a computer or router,  that serves as the entrance/exit (gateway) for accessing 
computers outside the network that you are on, When no  specific gateway is designated for a destination IP 
address, data is sent to the host  designated as the Default Gateway.
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)
Dynamic Host Configuration  Protocol (DHCP) that automatically resolves IP  addresses, subnet masks, and 
gateway addresses on a TCP/IP network. DHCP minimizes the load of network management employing a large 
number of client computers because it  relieves individual clients including printers from the IP address being 
assigned.

Appendix-30OPERATION GUIDE
DHCP (IPv6)
DHCP (IPv6) is the next-generation of 
the Internets Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol and supports IPv6. It 
extends the BOOTP startup protocol that defines the prot ocols used for transferring configuration information to 
hosts on the network. DHCP (IPv6)  permits the DHCP server to use its expanded functionality to send 
configuration parameters to an IPv6 node. Because the network addresses that can be used are allocated 
automatically, the IPv6 node management workload is  reduced in systems where the administrator has to 
exercise close control over IP address allocation.
dpi(dots per inch)
A unit for resolution, representing the number of dots printed per inch (25.4 mm).
EcoPrint Mode
A printing mode that helps save toner. Copies made in this mode are thus lighter than normal.
Emulation
The function to interpret and execute other printers  page description languages. The machine emulates 
operation of PCL6, KPDL, and KPDL (automatic). 
FTP(File Transfer Protocol)
A protocol to transfer files on the TCP/IP network, whether the Internet or an intranet. Along with HTTP and 
SMTP/POP, FTP is now frequently used on the Internet.
Grayscale
A computer color expression. Displayed images of this  sort are typically composed of shades of gray, varying 
from black at the weakest intensity to white at the stron gest, without any other colors. Gray levels are displayed 
in numerical levels: that is, white and  black only for 1 bit; 256 gray levels (including white and black) for 8 bits; 
and 65,536 gray levels for 16 bits.
Help
A  Help  key is provided on this machines operation pane l. If you are unsure of how to operate the machine, 
would like more information on its functions or are havin g problems getting the machine to work properly, press 
the  Help  key to view a detailed explanation on the touch panel.
IP Address
An Internet protocol address is a unique number that represents a specific computer or related device on the 
network. The format of an IP address is four sets of  numbers separated by dots, e.g. 192.168.110.171. Each 
number should be between 0 and 255.
IPP
IPP (Internet Printing Protocol) is a st andard that uses TCP/IP networks such as the Internet to enable print jobs 
to be sent between remote computers and printers.IPP is an extension of the HTTP protocol used to view 
websites and enables printing to be carried out via router s on printers in remote locations. It also supports the 
HTTP authentication mechanisms along with SSL serv er and client authentication as well as encryption.

KPDL (Kyocera Page Description Language)
Kyoceras PostScript page description language compatible with Adobe PostScript Level 3. 
Multi Purpose (MP) Tray
The paper supply tray on the right side of the machine. Use this tray instead of the cassettes when printing onto 
envelopes, Hagaki, transparencies, or labels. 
NetBEUI (NetBIOS Exte nded User Interface)
An interface, developed by IBM in 1985, as an update  from NetBIOS. It enables more advanced functions on 
smaller networks than other protocols such as TCP/IP, etc.  It is not suitable for larger networks due to lack of 
routing capabilities to choose the most appropriate routes. Ne tBEUI has been adopted by IBM for its OS/2 and 
Microsoft for its Windows as a standard protoc ol for file sharing and printing services.
NetWare
Novells network management software that is able to run on a variety of operating systems. 
POP3 (Post Office Protocol 3)
A standard protocol to receive E-mail from the server in which the mail is stored on the Internet or an intranet.
PostScript
A page description language developed by Adobe Systems.  It enables flexible font functions and highly-
functional graphics, allowing higher quality printing. The first version called Level 1 was launched in 1985, 
followed by Level 2 that enabled color printing and two-byte languages (e.g. Japanese) in 1990. In 1996, Level 
3 was released as an update for the Internet access and PDF format as well as gradual improvements in 
implementation technologies. 
PPM (prints per minute)
This indicates the number of A4 size printouts made in one minute. 
Printer Driver
The software to enable you to print data created on any application software. The printer driver for the machine 
is contained in the CD-ROM enclosed in the package. Inst all the printer driver on the computer connected to the 
machine. 
RA(Stateless)
The IPv6 router communicates (transmits) information su ch as the global address prefix using ICMPv6. This 
information is the Router Advertisement (RA). ICMPv6 st ands for Internet Control Message Protocol, and is a 
IPv6 standard defined in the RFC 2463  Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMPv6) for the Internet Protocol 
Version 6 (IPv6) Specification.
Send as E-mail
A function to send the image data stored in the machine as an E-mail attachment. E-mail addresses can be 
selected from the list or entered at each time.

Appendix-32OPERATION GUIDE
SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol)
A protocol for E-mail transmission over the Internet or 
an intranet. It is used for transferring mail between mail 
servers as well as for sending mail  from clients to their servers.
Status Page
The page lists machine conditions, such as the memory  capacity, total number of prints and scans, and paper 
source settings.
Subnet Mask
The subnet mask is a way of augmenting the networ k address section of an IP address. A subnet mask 
represents all network address sections as 1 and all host add ress sections as 0. The number of bits in the prefix 
indicates the length of the network address. The term prefix refers to something added to the beginning and, 
in this context, indicates the first section of the IP addr ess. When an IP address is written, the length of the 
network address can indicated by the pr efix length after a forward slash (/). For example, 24 in the address 
133.210.2.0/24. In this way, 133.210.2.0/24 denotes the IP address 133.210.2.0 with a 24-bit prefix 
(network section). This new network address section (originally part of the host address) made possible by the 
subnet mask is referred to as the subnet address.W hen you enter the subnet mask, be sure to set the DHCP 
setting to  Off.
TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol)
TCP/IP is a suite of protocols desi gned to define the way computers and  other devices communicate with each 
other over a network.
TCP/IP (IPv6)
TCP/IP (IPv6) is based on the current  Internet protocol, TCP/IP (IPv4). IPv6 is the next-generation Internet 
protocol and expands the available address space, which resolves the problem of the lack of addresses under 
IPv4, while also introducing other improvements such as additional security function ality and the capacity to 
prioritize data transmission.
TWAIN (Technology Without Any Interested Name)
A technical specification for connecting scanners, digital cameras, and othe r image equipment to the computers. 
The TWAIN compatible devices enable to process image data on any relevant application software. TWAIN is 
adopted on a large number of graphic software (e.g. Adobe Photoshop) and OCR software. 
USB (Universal Serial Bus)2.0
A USB interface standard for Hi-Speed USB 2.0. The ma ximum transfer rate is 480 Mbps. This machine is 
equipped with USB 2.0 for high-speed data transfer. 
WIA (Windows Imaging Acquisition)
A function to import images supported after Windows  Me/XP from digital cameras and other peripheral 
devices.This function replaces what TW AIN used to do; the feature is provided as a part of Windows functions 
and improves ease of operation, so that you import  images directly to My Computer without using any 
application.
