==========================================================================================
8-2. Attentions and Restrictions when using a PS driver
==========================================================================================

 1. Quality
    When you set [Quality]tab -[Quality Adjustment]-[Detail]-[Photo]-[Pure Black] 
    to Off, the full color counter will be counted up because the device performs 
    CMYK print, but documents will be printed more beautifully.

 2. PostScript Pass through
    Depending on applications to use, some functions of printer drivers might not work
    correctly.  For example, Watermarks specified by printer drivers would be 
    printed in unexpectedly large size when printing from Adobe Photoshop.
    ==>this may be solved by setting [PostScript Pass through] to [Disable] 
       in printer drivers.
       * The following cases are the error samples.
         - Output cannot be performed normally when Adobe Application and Overlay are
           combined.
         - Watermark specified by printer driver may be printed larger than the size
           you specified when printing with Adobe Photoshop.
         - Error page may be printed when printing with the Adobe application.

 3. Banner Printing
    Please set more than 431.9mm / 17.002inch to [Length] in [Custom Size Settings]
    dialog for Banner Printing.

 4. Printing Custom Size Documents
  4-1.When printing the document which length and width is the same (i.e. "square"
      shape document) in some application, the device may print the document with
      rotating its direction.

  4-2.When [Paper Size] is set to [Custom Size] and a print job is sent, the [Paper Size]
      set on the MFP may be different than the what is set in the Printer Driver,
      but the printed output will be normal.

 5. Overlay Function
  5-1.About Combination with [Binding Margin]
      When [Overlay], [Booklet], and [Binding Margin] we set simultaneously, the leading 
      edge of the Overlay will exceed the [Binding Margin] at the time of printing.
      - If the [Binding Margin] is set to 10mm, the leading edge of Overlay will be mobed 
        to 15mm.

 6. Printing in the [Auto Color] Setting
    When Black and White document is printed in the [Auto Color] Setting, 
    it may be counted as color document.
    To avoid this situation, change your driver/printer setting and print again.
    (Precondition: [Simulation Profile] is enabled in the printer.)
    Setting changes:
    Printer driver setting: Select [Quality]->[Select Color]->[Gray Scale].
    Printer setting: Select [User Setting]->[Printer Settings]->[PS Settings]
    ->[ICC Profile Settings]->[Simulation Profile]-[None].
==========================================================================================
8-3. Cautions and restrictions with specific applications
==========================================================================================

 1. Microsoft Office
  1-1. AutoShapes Graphics Print in Office [* PS Driver only]
       If the [Transparency] check box of [Fill] column in [Format AutoShape...]-
       [Colors and Lines]tab is ON, the paint-out part of graphics may not be
       printed correctly at the time of reduction and enlargement print.

  1-2. Entire workbook Print in Microsoft Excel
       When you print the Microsoft Excel document that has different binding direction 
       in each sheets with the [Entire workbook] checkbox ON, it may not be printed 
       as you specified.

  1-3. Duplex Print in Microsoft Word 2007 or Microsoft Word 2010
       When a document with odd number sheet is printed in duplex mode from
       Microsoft Word 2007 or Microsoft Word 2010, white paper which is not included 
       in original may be printed and counted.

  1-4. Custom Size printing in Microsoft Word
       When paper size is specified as "Custom Size", it may be printed in invert.
       In this case, it can be printed normally when paper size is specified as
       "Same as Original Size".

 2. Adobe Acrobat
  2-1. When a printing is performed from Acrobat Reader or Acrobat, Printing may not 
       be performed normally. 
       ==>Please check the [Print as image] on the Print setting of the application.

  2-2. Depending on the PDF file, the background may be painted with white out.
       When the topside of this image is printed during overlay print, the downside 
       of the image (Original or Overlay) cannot be printed.

  2-3. When printing the PDF file with turning off the "Choose Paper Source by PDF page 
       size" checkbox in the "Print" dialog, the page with different direction from 
       the 1st page and following pages might not be printed with correct direction 
       since Acrobat Reader will not correctly notify the page direction of pages 
       after the 1st page to the printer driver.

  2-4. When printing landscape original using Acrobat Reader 9, the page will be rotated 
       first then printed.[*PCL only]
       ==>In this case, it can be printed normally when [Auto-Rotate and Center] is 
          specified to OFF in the [Print Setting] of application.

  2-5. Please note that entering multiple copies in the Print Dialog menu will not 
       yield the expected results when using Adobe Reader X or Adobe Acrobat X. 
       ==>When printing a multiple number of copies using Adobe Reader X or
          Adobe Acrobat X, you need to configure the [Page Setup] setting first and 
          then configure the Printer Driver Properties menu.  

  2-6. When [Select paper by corresponding to PDF's page size] setting available
       in the Acrobat`s print dialog box is enabled, 
       ==>Please disable the [Select paper by corresponding to PDF's page size]
          setting and execute the print.

 3. Adobe PageMaker, Illustrator
  3-1. Depending on applications, such as Adobe PageMaker, Illustrator and etc, 
       if it recognizes that it is a PostScript printer driver, the application itself 
       may output PostScript commands. In this case, it may not be printed correctly.
       [* PS Driver only]

  3-2. When the Illustrator file with paper size A0/A1/B1 is printed with Illustrator CS, 
       a part of the image is lost.
       With Illustrator CS2 or more, this problem doesn't occur.

 4. Internet Explorer, Note Pad
  4-1. Check the selected printer when printing continuously by the Internet Explorer
       or Note Pad.
       Selected printer might differ from the previous selection if several same
       printer drivers have been installed, depending on the application limitation.
       ==>In this case, change the printer driver name with 
          which selection will be changed, to less than 29 characters.

 5. Excel
  5-1. Check the print settings before printing when you print from Excel after 
       switching the printer driver.
       Depending on the limitation of application, current printer driver setting might 
       apply to the printer driver after switching.
       ==>In that case, change the name of a printer driver used to within 29 characters. 

  5-2. When you want to print multiple Excel sheets simultaneously, printing may not be 
       successfully executed.
       This is a result of different printer driver settings for each sheet.
       ==>In this case, please enter the same print driver settings for all sheets 
          within the Excel workbook.

 6. PowerPoint
  6-1. Please do not enable the following setting when you print from PowerPoint.
       It might cause to hang PowerPoint.
       - [Settings]tab - [Popup Authentication Dialog when printing]

  6-2. The background of PowerPoint data is painted with the specified color.
       Because of this, when the topside of this image is printed during the overlay
       print with white background,the bottom of the image (Original or Overlay) cannot
       be printed by combination of the following driver.
