Software Solutions Group Print Capture Tip

On February 21, 2001 the Software Solution Group (SSG) was officially born. The group includes Mr.
Nob Mori, Director of Software Solutions, Mr. Timothy OBrien, Software Support Specialist and myself
Mr. John Helsel, Software Support Specialist. Located in Kyocera Mita Americas Headquarters in New
Jersey, SSG is responsible for 2nd level support for our Dealer, Reseller and Customer populations.
Our primary mission is to respond to printing challenges that will provide additional value to our
products and services. In addition to this support, there is also a coordinated effort with our training
group in Dallas, Texas to help bring to light the power of Kyocera Products and our native Printer
Control language, Prescribe.

With the world of connected products comes a different perspective to consider when supporting printer
installs. A competitive market and varying flavors of printing environments, such as Microsoft,
Macintosh, AS400, and UNIX (to name a few) require that support groups maintain a high level of
responsibility in their efforts to respond promptly to customer support questions and inquiries. The
number one priority, without question, in any support arena, is access to complete and accurate data
from the field. While access to a well-equipped laboratory with all the right hardware and software is a
great start for any support group, it does not always guarantee efforts to duplicate every printing
environment. This is the reason most of you may have started hearing requests for electronic print files
from the environment. Though it may not guarantee our ability to duplicate the environment, it does
give us the exact data being sent to our printer, and in the majority of cases, that data will be the basis
of our solution. In addition to using the KX Print Driver Print to file feature, newer Kyocera Printers
can also write a print job to Compact Flash cards (CF Cards). The data on the CF card can then be
delivered via floppy disk or e-mailed to us to be analyzed. Capturing data files via the KX print driver
Print to file feature is more commonly used to support printing challenges from applications like MS
Word, MS Excel, MS Publisher, Corel Word Perfect etc. While the CF card capture is more commonly
used to capture print files from different printing environments that do not use the KX Print Driver, and
print directly to the printers port through the driver.
All we ask is, you keep in mind that a challenge without a captured print file leaves several unanswered
questions, while a challenge with a captured print file shows us exactly what our printer needs to print.
This being said, we felt it a good idea to share the procedures for capturing print data files from using
the KX Print Driver Print to File method and using the Compact Flash Card Write method. Additional
support for these procedures can be obtained from our Helpdesk Support Group at 1-800-457-7951.

Microsoft Windows Print Driver Data Capture:

From the application select File Print. (See Fig. 1). This will display the Print dialogue screen from which
you can select Print to file (see fig. 2). Make sure that you have set all the features specific to your print job
such as cassette, duplex, staple, hole punch etc, so that all the related PDL commands can be captured. This
can be done from the Properties (see fig. 2) button in the Print dialogue screen.

Fig. 1

Fig. 2

After you have set all the print job features and selected the Print to file check box, click on the OK button (see
fig. 2). This will display the Print to file (see fig. 3) dialogue screen, from here you can select a folder to save the
file to and assign it an appropriate file name. This file can then be delivered via floppy disk or e-mailed to the
Copystar Support Specialist you are working with.

Compact Flash Card Data Capture

Tools Required:
Compact Flash Card Reader or Adapter (Device used to read compact flash cards in a PC)
Compact Flash Card (SanDisk 8M or 16M Compact Flash Card www.sandisk.com)

Formatting the Compact Flash Card

1. Power the machine OFF .Insert the Compact Flash (CF) Card into the printer.
2. From the Printer Menu select Menu>Memory Card>Format. A Format Information page will
print out confirming the format.

Print Data Capture

1. With the formatted CF card still in the printer. Select from the Printer Menu, Menu>Memory
Card>Write Data. The printer LCD will display Processing and then change to Waiting.
2. With Waiting displayed in the LCD, send the print job to the printer. The printer LCD will
display Processing, during which the data is being written to the CF.
3. After the file write to CF is complete, the LCD will return to Waiting. At this point you can press
the GO button to force a form feed and the printer LCD will return to Ready.
Note: The printer will remain in its Waiting mode until a Form Feed timeout
occurs. This is usually defaulted to 30 seconds which means you have only 30
seconds to get the print data to the printer before it times out.
4. Once the LCD reads Ready, Turn OFF the Printer. remove the CF from the printer and install
into a PCMCIA adapter (for PCMCIA slot of PC) or a Compact Flash Card reader device for a
PC. This will allow you to read the CF as an external storage device of your PC. On the root of
the CF card you will see a file name DataS001. This file can either be delivered via floppy disk
or e-mailed to the Copystar Support Specialist you are working with.

IB-2x NetBEUI QUICK INSTALL

Referenced from the IB-2x Quick Configuration Guide Page 10
By Thomas Allen
Product Support Rep 2

Used for simple Peer to Peer printing for eight or less PCs (the standard recommended by
Microsoft).
Advantageous if the client has no TCP IP scheme being utilized, does not wish to assign a
static IP address or does not wish to use the KPRINT utility.
NetBeui Protocol is supported by Windows 95/98/ME, Windows NT 4.0, 2000 and XP.
NetBeui is enabled on a new IB-2x out of the box.
Limited to LAN use unless a Router that supports NetBeui is being used.
May take between 5-50 minutes for the IB-2x to show up on the network.

Requirements:
1. NetBeui must be enabled on the IB-2x network card through the Quick Set Up wizard from the
Kyocera Mita Network Library CD, the KM Net Viewer utility, from the keyboard of the machine or
via an internet browser web page. The Workgroup default: KY-NetPrinters and Printer Name
default: KYxxxxxx can be changed using the same methods.
2. The NetBeui Protocol must be enabled on all PCs by the Network Administrator (requires
reboot).

Set up:
1. Have the latest KX driver unzipped but not loaded.
2. There are two methods to find the print icon for the specific IB-2x card on the network.
a.) Browse the Entire Network under Network Neighborhood to locate the Workgroup
labeled KY-NetPrinters. Double click it, then right click the printer icon. Click Install
and follow the prompts in the Add Printer wizard to load the KX driver.
b.) Use the UNC name (Universal Naming Convention) from the Run command. Click
Start then Run from any Windows OS. Type two back slashes and the Printer Name.

Helpful Hints
From The Kyocera Mita Diagnostic Center
Now that the Print Systems for both Copiers and Printers have become more standardized, remembering specific
LPR port names has become much easier. The predecessors to these systems were a bit more varied. The
LPR Port is the Printers TCP IP address and Port Name that Windows 2000 and NT uses to direct the print job to
the correct printer. Without a valid IP address or Port Name, the Server or Workstation will Spool the job but
never make the connection to the printer.

WinNT Screen shots when LPR Port is created

Click New Port.

(Example) Type the Port Name exactly on shown Page 9.

Tips from the Field

1. If you can't communicate with the Printer, take it off the Network, and try a crossover cable in order
to determine if the problem is in the Network or with the Machine.
2. Pagemaker 6.5: must have the Printer PPD file in the PPD4 subfolder on the PC. The driver has to
be in KPDL with Data passthrough turned on to see the PPD.
3. KX driver, click on Device Settings, locks up:
The cause is a conflict with the Video Card. If the latest Video Driver or available Patches dont
help, use the 3D Patch to disable graphics.
4. The Transaction Report will not Print. The solution is to go into the fax parameter settings (KMF650 and KM-F1050 Instruction Handbook...pages 35-39 and set parameter 12 (COMM.
JOURNAL) to 2 for "always on".

KM-C830/D, FS-8000C
Tip When Using Gloss Mode

n rare cases, the paper may become creased at the fixing unit in the gloss mode. (This problem
occurs mainly with regular paper (64g) or when using paper with a high moisture content and the
image is covering a high percentage of the paper.
The gloss mode cannot be combined with the thick paper mode when using thick paper (equal to or
above 100g).

1. We recommend that full-color exclusive paper or paper for both full-color and black and white copy
be used whenever copying in the gloss mode.
2. Please inform users of the limitation in specification as described below and instruct them how to
use the machine properly in the gloss mode.
Details
1. In the gloss mode, the paper will pass through the fixing unit at a slower speed than in the normal
mode, so more heat can be applied to the paper to increase the gloss level.
2. The same control will be applied in the thick paper mode as well to enhance fixing performance. It
will not be possible to decrease the paper conveying speed to use the gloss mode combined with
the thick paper mode.
3. Please instruct the users to be sure to use the thick paper mode whenever using thick paper. If
copied in the regular mode, a fixing failure may result.

KM-C830/D
