Overview
Printing Flow
1
When using this printing system as a printer, the flow of the main process is
described below.
Print commands transmitted from the application are received by the printer
driver.
Data is transmitted to this machine over a parallel interface (IEEE 1284) when
this machine is used as a local printer, over a USB interface when this ma-
chine is used as a USB printer, or over an Ethernet interface (TCP/IP, IPX/
SPX or AppleTalk) when this machine is used as a network printer. The data
is then delivered from this machine to the printer controller, which performs
image rasterization (development of output characters and images to bitmap
data). Finally, this data is printed from this machine.
Note
The parallel and USB interfaces cannot be used simultaneously.

When a print job is received during copying, the data is stored in the memory
of this machine. When copying is complete, the print job is automatically
printed.
Flow of the Computer Faxing Operation
Conventionally, faxes are sent by loading an original into a fax machine and
sending it.
With computer faxing, you can send a fax directly from your computer with-
out using any paper.
Transmission commands sent from the application are received by the print-
er driver.
Data is transmitted to this machine over a parallel interface (IEEE 1284) when
this machine is used as a local printer, over a USB interface when this ma-
chine is used as a USB printer, or over an Ethernet interface (TCP/IP, IPX/
SPX or AppleTalk) when this machine is used as a network printer. The data
is then delivered from this machine to the printer controller, which performs
image rasterization (development of output characters and images to bitmap
data). Finally, this data is stored in the memory of this machine and transmit-
ted like a conventional fax job.

Compatible Interfaces
The various interfaces that can be used to connect this printing system to a
computer are described below.
Ethernet Interface
Connect when using this printing system as a network printer.
Supports 10Base-T and 100Base-TX standards. In addition, the Ethernet in-
terface supports the TCP/IP (LDP/LPR, peer-to-peer), IPX/SPX (NetWare)
and AppleTalk (EtherTalk) protocols.
Parallel Interface (optional)
Connect when using this printing system as a local printer.
A computer running Windows and an IEEE 1284 parallel cable are required
for connection. Use a parallel cable that uses a terminal with an Amphenol
36-pin male connector.
The parallel interface supports the compatible, nibble, and ECP modes.
USB Interface (optional)
Connect when using this printing system as a network printer.
The USB interface can be connected to a computer running Windows. A
USB cable is required for connection. Use a type A (4 pin, male) or type B (4
pin, male) USB cable. A USB cable measuring 3 meters or less is recom-
mended.
The parallel and USB interfaces cannot be used simultaneously. You can
switch the interfaces in the administrator mode.

specify other network settings in advance when installing the printer driv-
er using a network connection, install it using a local connection at this
time.
To install the printer driver under Windows XP, Windows Server 2003,
Windows 2000, or Windows NT 4.0, log on using a user name that is au-
thorized by the administrator.
To connect this machine to a computer using a parallel connection or a
USB connection, the optional local interface kit is required.

Installing the Printer Driver
Automatic Installation Using the Installer
2
With the installer, this machine is detected to determine whether it is con-
nected by USB or is on the same TCP/IP network as the computer, and then
the required printer driver is automatically installed. You can also manually
specify the printer driver to be installed.
Note
Since this machine is automatically detected with a network connection,
be sure to set the IP address of this machine before connecting it. For de-
tails on specifying the settings, refer to “Setting the IP Address for This
Machine” on the User’s Guide [Print Operations].
When installing on Windows NT 4.0, 2000, XP, or Server 2003, adminis-
trator permissions are required.
If the wizard starts up in order to add new hardware with a USB or parallel
connection, click [Cancel].
For IPP printing, it is not necessary to install the printer driver at this time
since IPP printing setup is performed when the printer driver is installed.
For further details on IPP printing, refer to “IPP Printing (Windows 2000/
XP/Server 2003)” on the User’s Guide [Print Operations].

10 Restart the computer.
This completes the uninstallation procedure.
Note
Even if the printer driver is deleted using the method described above,
the model information file will remain in the computer. Therefore, the driv-
er may not be able to be overwritten when reinstalling the same version
of the printer driver. When installing the same version of the printer driver,
be sure to also delete the files described below.
Check the “C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\drivers\w32x86” folder and
delete the folder of the corresponding model if it is available. If the Konica
Minolta PCL driver and Konica Minolta PostScript driver are both in-
stalled, the model information of both drivers is deleted. If one driver is
remaining, do not delete it.
Delete the “oem*.inf” and “oem*.PNF” files in the “C:\WINDOWS\inf”
folder. (The asterisk (*) in the file name displays a number, and the
number varies according to the environment of the computer.) Before de-
leting the files, open the INF file, check that the model name is described
in the last several lines, and then check that the file of the corresponding
model is available.
The PNF file is the same number as the INF file.
