Printing the PDF File Using the Direct Print Function (LBP843Cx Only)

Start the Remote UI.

"Starting the Remote UI"

Select [PDF File] from the [Direct Print] menu.

Specify [Select PDF File].

When specifying [File Path]

Click [Browse], select the file, and then click [Open].

When specifying [URL]

Enter the URL of the PDF file that you want to print.

	If you specify a URL that requires user authentication, enter [User Name] and [Password].
	When specifying a URL and printing, the next print job cannot be performed until the PDF is finished downloading or the connection with the Web server is terminated.
	The protocol for specifying a URL and printing only supports HTTP.

Enter the password in [Document Password] when a password is specified for opening the document or when it is necessary to enter a password to print.

If printing is attempted without entering a password, <Cannot decode PDF data.> is displayed, and printing is cancelled.

When you print a PDF file linked to a policy server, enter [Policy Server User Name] and [Policy Server Password].

Specify the setting for [Specify Print Range].

[All]	Select if you want to print all the pages.
[Pages]	Select [Pages], and then enter the starting page number and ending page number if you want to specify the print range.

Specify the settings for [Quality Settings] as the following, as needed.

[Resolution]	Specify the resolution for printing the data. It is effective to set [600 dpi] when printing photographs at standard quality, and to set [1200 dpi] when printing at a higher quality.
[Gradation]	Specify the gradation process for printing the data. It is effective to set [High 1] when printing photographs at standard quality, and to set [High 2] when printing at a higher quality.

Specify the settings for [Halftones] as the following, as needed.

[Halftones]

Specify the halftone display method when printing.

[Error Diffusion] is suitable for printing data with text and thin lines and the curved lines of CAD data, etc.

The stability of the texture and fixed toner may be reduced when this mode is used.

When [Error Diffusion] is not selected, it is possible to select the halftone display method from [Resolution] or [Gradation] for [Text], [Graphics] or [Image].

[Resolution]:	You can print in fine detail so that the edges of text data can be seen clearly. It is suitable for printing data containing text and fine lines.
[Gradation]:	You can perform printing that combines smooth gradation with edge quality. It is suitable for printing graphics or graphs that use gradation.

Specify the settings for [Advanced Smoothing] as the following, as needed.

[Advanced Smoothing]

Specify whether to use the smoothing process to smooth the edges of graphics (illustrations created in other applications) or text. [Smooth 2] is better than [Smooth 1] for performing a smoothing process that provides more smoothing. First, set it to [Smooth 1], and if the data is still not smooth, set it to [Smooth 2].

In addition, by selecting [Graphics] and [Text], you can select what to smooth.

This item specifies the smoothing process for graphics data and text data. Image data cannot be specified.

[Graphics] and [Text] settings on the printer console are suitable only when [Advanced Smoothing] on the printer driver is set to [Printer Default].

The effects of advanced smoothing differ depending on the pattern of the text or the graphics.

Specify the settings for [Color Settings] as the following, as needed.

[Color Mode]

Specify color printing or B&W printing.

[Auto (Color/Black and White)]:	It automatically switches between color and black and white printing depending on the type of document.
[Black and White]:	Even color documents are printed in black (Bk) only.
[Color]:	It prints in 4 colors: cyan (C), magenta (M), yellow (Y) and black (Bk).

[RGB Source Profile]

You can select an RGB profile that is suitable for the features of the monitor that you are using. Set it when printing images drawn with an RGB color model or documents that contain images.

[sRGB v3.0 (Canon)]:	It can be set to general Windows computer monitor profiles defined by industry standards. When using monitors that support sRGB, you can print colors close to the colors displayed on the monitor.
[Canon HDTV gamma 1.5 Monitor]: [Canon HDTV gamma 1.8 Monitor]: [Canon HDTV gamma 2.4 Monitor]:	You can adjust the gamma correction level of RGB data. The higher the value, the darker the printing.
[None]:	It performs color separation from RGB data to CMYK without applying an RGB profile.

[CMYK Simulation Profile]

You can set a simulation target when printing CMYK data. The machine converts CMYK data to a device-dependent CMYK color model in accordance with the simulation target selected by the CMYK simulation profile.

[JapanColor(Canon)]:	Use JapanColor profile. Use it for printing in colors that are close to Japanese printing standards.
[U.S. Web Coated v1.00 (Canon)]:	Use U.S. Web Coated profile. Use it for printing in colors that are close to U.S. printing standards.
[Euro Standard v1.00 (Canon)]:	Use the Euro Standard profile. Use it for printing in colors that are close to European printing standards.
[None]:	It prints CMYK data using a device-dependent CMYK color model, without applying a CMYK simulation profile.

[Output Profile]

You can define suitable profiles for data that you are trying to print.

[Normal]:	It matches with colors close to the colors displayed on the monitor, and prints.
[Photo]:	It matches with colors similar to photographs, and prints.
[TR Normal]:	It matches with colors close to the colors displayed on the monitor and prints, while also controlling the bleeding of toner into text and fine lines.
[TR Photo]:	It matches with colors similar to photographs, and prints, while also controlling the bleeding of toner into text and fine lines.

[Use RGB Pure Black Process]

When device-dependent RGB data is converted to device-dependent CMYK using [RGB Source Profile] in this machine, set what type of processing to use for black and gray data that becomes R=G=B.

If uneven gradation or staining is visible when printing black or gray data, do not set this item. Set [Output Profile] to [Normal].

If this item is not set, a combination of settings enable gray data (R=G=B color) to be printed using black (Bk) toner. An example is shown below.

If [Use Pure Black Text] is selected

When [RGB Source Profile] is set as [None]

When [Output Profile] is set as [TR Normal] or [TR Photo]

If [RGB Source Profile] is set as [None], the setting for this item becomes invalid.

[Use CMYK Pure Black Process]

When device-dependent CMYK is processed using [CMYK Simulation Profile] in this machine, set what type of printing to use for grey data (C=M=Y=0).

Even if this item is not selected, a combination of settings enable grey data (C=M=Y=0 color) to be printed using black (Bk) toner, as shown below. An example is shown below.

If [Use Pure Black Text] is selected

If [CMYK Simulation Profile] is set as [None]

When [Output Profile] is set as [TR Normal] or [TR Photo]

If [CMYK Simulation Profile] is set as [None], the setting for this item becomes invalid.

[Matching Method]

Specify the printing method when [RGB Source Profile] is applied. You can select color rendering style on the machine, as shown below.

[Perceptual]:	It provides colors suitable for printing photos and bitmap images.
[Saturation]:	It provides colors suitable for printing artwork and graphs for use in presentations.
[Colorimetric]:	It reproduces as accurately as possible the RGB color values that are within the machine's color gamut.

[Use Grayscale Profile]

You can use this machine's grayscale profile to convert device-dependent grey data to CMYK data. However, it may be reproduced using black (Bk) toner only, by using the [Output Profile] or [Use Pure Black Text] settings.

[Use Pure Black Text]

You can print data for black colors created by applications using only 100% black toner. Since monochrome (black) toner only is used for black text, there is never the problem of color toner slurring around the edges of the characters.

[Use Black Overprinting]

If the check box for this option is selected, the printer prints black text over a color background. If this option is used with [Use Pure Black Text], the printer prints all the background first, and then prints the text over the color background using only the black (Bk) toner. This alleviates the phenomenon in which the outlines of the printed black text are rimmed with white.

[Use Composite Overprinting]

You can overprint device-dependent CMYK data as composite output. Since all the colors used in the data are overprinted to a single palette, you can check the result without performing color separation.

[Brightness]

You can adjust the brightness of the whole image. You can use this item to set from 85% to115% at intervals of 5%. The smaller the value the brighter it becomes. The larger the value the darker it becomes.

[Grayscale Conversion]

Select the method for converting color print data to grayscale for printing.

This setting is for converting color data to B&W data.

The setting for this item becomes invalid for B&W data.

If [Color Mode] is set as [Auto (Color/Black and White)] or [Color], the setting for this item becomes invalid.

[sRGB]:	It calculates the grayscale value using the sRGB standard color conversion method.
[NTSC]:	It calculates the grayscale value using the NTSC standard color conversion method.
[Uniform RGB]:	It takes the average value of the Red, Green and Blue color values as the grayscale value.

Specify the settings for [Print Settings] as the following, as needed.

[Copies]

Specify the number of copies to be printed.

[Paper Size]

Specify the size of paper to print.

If data is input that is outside the engine's maximum and minimum paper size range when the paper size is automatic, it is printed on the paper size that is set with [Standard Paper Size].

[Auto]:	It selects the most suitable paper source for the PDF file page size, and prints.
Other than [Auto]:	It prints so that the long side of the page size of the PDF file and the long side of the selected paper size go in the same direction.

[Paper Type]

Specify the type of paper to print.

[Manual Feed]

You can fix the paper source in the multi-purpose tray.

[Enlarge/Reduce to Fit Paper Size]

If the check box is selected, it fixes the aspect ratio and scales it to fit with the effective print area of the paper size that is set and prints. However if [Paper Size] is set as [Auto], this item cannot be set.

[Enlarge Print Area]

Specify whether to expand the printable area and print.

Depending on the document to be printed, part of the edges of the paper may not be printed.

[Print 2-Sided]

Specify 1-sided or 2-sided printing.

[Binding Location]

Set the binding position on the long side of the paper (long-edged binding) or the short side of the paper (short-edged binding). If binding is set from the printer side, the position of the "gutter" is automatically adjusted on the front and back sides of the paper.

[N on 1]

You can print multiple pages of the PDF file data arranged on one page.

When printing multiple pages side by side, set [Paper Size] to a setting other than [Auto].

[Page Order]

The [N on 1] setting enables you to set the order the pages will be arranged on the paper when printing multiple pages on one page.

[Finishing]

(It is only displayed when an SD card is used.)

It collates and prints in page or section units.

[Off]:	Print the number of copies specified for every page.
[Collate]:	The specified number of copies are collated.

[Comment Print]

Specify whether to print the notes of PDF files.

[Off]:	The notes are not printed.
[Auto]:	It only prints the notes that are specified within the PDF file as printable.

[Store in Box]

(It is only displayed when an SD card is used.)

When storing it in a box, check the [Store in Box] check box before selecting the box where you want to store it.
