1 | When choosing the PDF direct print, the paper size should be identified by using the CropBox value (trimmed size), instead of using the MediaBox (media size) value as is normally the case. | The paper size will be identified by using the CropBox value (trimmed size) for the PDF file. |
2 | When using the LPR command to group multiple print jobs in a single file, the operation terminates with an error and does not complete the output. | Regardless of the spool setting for the Controller, the job will be executed upon receiving the entire data (file). Note that this setting may slow down the printing performance.
|
4 | During output of multiple PostScript data in a single file over network, multiple data are grouped in a single job and output. | Ctrl-D will be taken as a job delimiter, and data will be output as multiple jobs. |
