driver.
Cautions, Limitations and Restrictions
1. If you have problems printing some graphics objects when printing
with the PCL5e printer driver, you should select the alternate
Graphics Mode (Vector or Raster) to the one you are using currently in
the Graphics sheet. The Graphics sheet is displayed by clicking the
Details button in the Quality sheet.
2. If you have problems printing some graphics objects when printing
with the PCL6 printer driver, you should use the PCL5e printer driver
and select Raster for Graphics Mode in the Graphics sheet. The
Graphics sheet is displayed by clicking the Details button in the
Quality sheet.
3. Certain TrueType fonts may not be printed correctly. If this occurs,
you should disable the Use Printer Fonts check box in the Detailed
Settings for Objective dialog box to ensure that all fonts are
downloaded with the document, rather than using only those fonts that
reside in the printer. The Detailed Settings for Objective dialog box
is displayed by clicking the Details button in the Quality sheet.
If the problem persists, you should use the PCL5e printer driver and
select Raster for Graphics Mode in the Graphics sheet, and then enable
the Print Text as Graphics check box in the Misc. sheet.
4. Rotated text will not be printed correctly with some applications
when TrueType Mode is set to Download as TrueType or Download as Bit
Image in the Detailed Settings for Objective dialog box. The Detailed
Settings for Objective dialog box is displayed by clicking the Details
button in the Quality sheet. To avoid this problem, you should use the
PCL5e printer driver and select Raster for Graphics Mode in the
Graphics sheet, and then enable the Print Text as Graphics check box
in the Misc. sheet.
5. When Overlay Printing, use the overlay form whose size is the same
as the paper size of the document you are going to print.
6. In some applications, the printed output may not be correct when
using the scaling feature. In this case, use the PCL5e printer driver
and select Raster for Graphics Mode in the Graphics sheet. The
Graphics sheet is displayed by clicking the Details button in the
Quality sheet.
7. A document which contains different paper sizes across the pages
may not be cross-sorted (output copies turned at a 90 degrees for each
copy) correctly. Because the printer does not support cross-sorting of
paper sizes other than B5, A4 and Letter, the pages of unsupported
paper size documents will not be cross-sorted.
8. When creating a custom paper size in the Print Server Properties
dialog box of Windows XP/Server 2003/Vista/Server 2008/7 x64 Edition,
specify the margins as 63cm/0.25in or more.
9. Print jobs containing fill patterns, especially in Corel Draw, have
been observed to output slowly when printing with the PCL6 driver or
PCL5e driver in Vector mode due to the large size of the file. To
avoid this situation, it is recommended that you use the PCL5e driver
and select Raster for Graphics Mode in the Graphics sheet. The
Graphics sheet is displayed by clicking the Details button in the
Quality sheet.
10. When creating an overlay form file in one machine operating
Windows XP/Server 2003/Vista/Server 2008/7 x64 Edition, you cannot
specify another machine operating Windows XP/Server 2003/Vista/Server
2008/7 x64 Edition in the network as the place to save the new form
file.
11. When you store a landscape document in the Mail Box of the printer,
the staple position displayed on the printer control panel differs
from the setting of the printer driver. Also, if you specify the
staple position of a landscape document stored in the Mail Box from
the printer control panel, the actual staple position of the output
document may not correspond with the orientation specified.
12. It is necessary to use TCP/IP as a network protocol in order to
set up the printer configuration automatically when using a Remote
Desktop environment, or when Windows is shared by multiple users.
13. When inserting inserted sheets into the document, if you
accidentally specify a drawer that contains tab paper as the paper
source for the inserted sheets, the paper source automatically returns
to the plain paper setting.
14. If you select Rotate Print Data 180 Degrees in the Finishing
Details dialog box when any Finishing option is selected, the document
may output in an unexpected style.
15. When you use Adobe Illustrator 9.0 or later and do not select the
Bitmap Printing option, it may take a long time to finish printing, or
thin lines or characters may be blurred. If you experience such
problem, select the Bitmap Printing option.
16. When you share the printer on the print server and specify a
shared printer name in 13 or more characters, neither automatic
printer configuration nor the Department ID Management feature are
available on the client PCs.
17. For FAX-L2000 when printing several copies of a document
consisting of mixed paper sizes with the collate option, do either one
of the followings:
Use the collate option provided by the application.
Select Enabled for Spooling at Host in the Device Settings sheet
before printing.
18. If it takes long time to print a document from CorelDraw, the
following settings may shorten the printing time.
(1) From the Tools menu, select Options.
(2) In the Options dialog box, select Global->Printing->Driver
Compatibility from the tree view in the left side of the dialog box.
(3) In the Driver Compatibility sheet, select Canon PCL printer driver
from the Printer drop-down list, and then select the following check
boxes.
Use software clipping for fills
Output bitmaps in 64k chunks
Send beziers and paths to driver
(4) Click the OK button to close the dialog box.
19. For iR105, 105PLUS, 7200, 8070, 8500, 85PLUS, and 9070, when using
booklet printing with saddle stitch, the printed cover page loaded
from Document Insertion Unit may be attached upside down. If this
occurs, put the cover page in the Document Insertion Unit in the
opposite direction.
20. When printing a document with a banner page attached from the
server PC under the NetWare environment, two copies of the banner page
may be output.
21. For iRiR2000/1600, 2010/1610, 400, GP300-405, 555-605-605P and
LBP-2000, refer to the following points when making the Mail Box name
file.
Any name can be used for a file
Use [BoxName] as the section name
Use the numbers 0 to 255 as the key names
The key and box name together cannot exceed 24 characters
Include [Key=1] as one of the keys
NOTE
It is unnecessary to include keys for a box number whose name is not
specified.
Also, if the keys without box name are included in the file, they will
be ignored.
Sample File
-----------------------------
[BoxName]
Key=1
0=
1=Joe Smith
2=Bob Jones
3=Sally Hill
50=
48=
58=
55=Robert Brown
71=Peter Wilson
99=Lucie Jones
-----------------------------
22. Black-and-white pages may be counted as color pages, depending on
data, application, or driver settings when you select Auto [Color/B&W]
or Color for Color Mode in the Quality sheet. If you want to print a
document as a black-and-white job, select Black and White for Color
Mode.
23. If you select Transparency or Label for Paper Type in the Paper
Source sheet, a message indicating that you cannot print the document
unless you change the Paper Type may appear. If this message appears,
you may be able to print a document by deselecting the Offset check
box in the Finishing sheet.
24. For LBP5960, when using a custom paper size for printing, the
print data may not be output correctly if the length of the custom
paper size is greater than 1168.6 mm.
25. There may be cases where the Custom Paper Type information
registered in the printer is not acquired correctly when installing
the printer driver. If so, reacquire the correct information by
clicking on the Get Device Status button in the Device Settings sheet,
or the Get Paper Details button in the Paper Type Settings dialog box,
displayed by clicking the Settings button in the Paper Source sheet.
26. When an "@" character is used in the name of the printer, the
printer will become unrecognizable by the operating system because of
an invalid printer name thus disabling printing, operation and setup.
27. If you print a document that has an odd number of pages as a two-
sided document from an application, the application may automatically
insert a blank page to bring the number of pages up to an even number.
When this happens, the blank page inserted by the application is
counted up in the same way as a printed page.
28. To register the custom paper size you want to use, access the
Document Properties dialog box from the Printers folder with
Administrator privileges, and then specify the paper size in the
Custom Paper Size Settings dialog box which is displayed by clicking
the Custom Paper Size button in the Page Setup sheet.
29. When you log on to an Administrator account that is different from
the one used to install the software, you will not be able to access
the driver properties with Administrator privileges. To access the
driver properties, select [Run as Administrator].
30. In certain applications, thickness of a line can be set to a value
smaller than 1pt but the actual thickness in the printout may be
equivalent to that of an 1pt line.
31. When a document is output at a resolution of 1200 dpi set from an
application, jaggies in images may be more noticeable than when the
document is printed at 600 dpi.
32. If you are using a USB connection with the printer to print, and
cancel a print job that is currently printing from your computer using
the print spooler, the printer may not return to a ready state. In
this state, you can print via USB, but not via a network. In order to
be able to print from a network, cancel the print job from the control
panel of the printer prior to printing.
33. For Windows Server 2008 x64 installed with Server Core option, the
following limitations exist on using the printer driver.
You cannot install the driver with the installer. Use the installation
options of Windows.
Some print options are not available under local environment or
Windows Remote Desktop environment.
34. If the driver version of the client computer is older than that of
the print server, the driver settings of the server may not be applied
to the client.
35. If you are using a printer (AutoCreatedPrinter) created with the
"Auto Created Client Printer" function of Citrix XenDesktop, you may
not be able to use the Department ID Management function or the Get
Device Status function.
If this is the case, use the Citrix XenDesktop Universal Printer
Driver (UPD), or select a Standard TCP/IP Port for which the IP
address of a printer you are actually outputting to has been set.
*** If you are using the Universal Printer Driver, you may not be able
to use some printer functions correctly, depending on the environment
you are using. For a detailed solution, see the next item.
36. If you are using the Citrix XenApp (Presentation Server) or Citrix
XenDesktop Universal Printer Driver (UPD), you may not be able to use
the Department ID Management function, Get Device Status function,
and/or Edit + Preview function, and print settings such as page layout,
booklet printing, etc. may be invalid.
If this is the case, with Citrix XenApp (Presentation Server) or
Citrix XenDesktop in a disconnected state, deselect [Enable advanced
printing features] in the [Advanced] sheet of the printer properties
dialog box of the client printer, then connect Citrix XenApp
(Presentation Server) or Citrix XenDesktop.
*** Depending on the environment you are using, you may not be able to
perform the above operations in the way described. If this is the case,
refer to the Citrix website.
