    Introduction to Using Print Functions
    Introduction to Using Print Functions
    Normally, the series of operations involved in printing data from a computer is specified by 
    control commands generated using a printer driver. Control commands are a command 
    system for controlling a printer. For example, when printing using a printer driver, control 
    commands print data according to the following flow.
    ① Using a printer driver, data to be printed is converted to control commands.
    ② Control command data is sent to the machine.
    ③ Following the received control commands, the machine processes and prints the data.
    To print in the following printer modes, a Printer Driver supported by this machine must be installed. 
    For installing the driver to send a print job to the machine over a network, see “Network 
    Connection” in the Starter Guide. 
    For installing the driver to send a print job directly from your Computer to the machine, see 
    “USB Connection” in the Starter Guide. 
    This machine supports the following two kinds of control commands:
    UFRII LT Mode
    UFR (Ultra Fast Rendering) is printing technology developed by Canon. High-speed printing is made possible 
    by sharing the processing of print data normally done by the machine with the computer.
    PCL Mode
    PCL (Print Control Language), developed by Hewlett-Packard, is a command system for controlling page 
    printers. Command versions supported by this machine are PCL5e and PCL6.
    If you disconnect the USB cable before the print job is complete, the current operation may not be performed properly. Do not 
    disconnect the USB cable until all the pages are printed out completely.
    The PCL printing function is available only for the D1180.
    The available printer drivers may vary, depending on the machine and the version of Windows that you are using.
    If you are using a shared printer in the Print Server (Point and Print) environment, it is necessary to install the Canon Driver Information 
    Assist Service in the server PC in order to set up the printer configuration automatically or to use the Job Accounting feature. For 
    instructions on how to install the Canon Driver Information Assist Service, see “Set Up Computers and Software” in the Starter Guide.
    Most settings of printing are made from the printer driver. Although there are some settings which can be made from the machine, 
    the settings from the printer driver have priority.
    For information on the machines supported by the UFRII LT printer drivers, see Canon Products Supported by UFRII Drivers.
    For information on the machines supported by the PCL5e, PCL6 printer drivers, see Canon Products Supported by PCL Drivers.

    Printing Documents from a Computer
    Printing Documents from a Computer
    This section is the explanation of the basic procedure for printing from a computer (printer 
    driver). Make sure that the printer driver is installed on your computer. To check if the driver 
    is installed, see “Set Up Computers and Software” in the Starter Guide. For details on the 
    printer driver settings, see Online Help.
    Printing methods may differ depending on the applications you are using. For details, see the instruction manuals 
    provided with the application software.
    If you are using a shared printer in the Print Server (Point and Print) environment, it is necessary to install the Canon Driver 
    Information Assist Service in the server computer in order to set up the printer configuration automatically or to use the 
    Job Accounting feature. For instructions on how to install the Canon Driver Information Assist Service, see “Set Up 
    Computers and Software,” in the Starter Guide.
    The machine may not be able to print data such as color photos if the data size of a single page is too large. If such is the 
    case, reduce the data size by lowering the resolution or by changing the file format.
    The following procedures are explained using sample screens from Windows 2000. The display may differ depending on 
    the operating system, as well as the type and version of the printer drivers.
    Printing speed may be slower when sending an e-mail or scanning documents to a file server in B&W format.

    Open the document you want to print 
    from the application.

    Select [Print] from the [File] menu.
    The printer driver screen is displayed.
    The procedure to display the printer driver screen 
    may differ depending on the applications you are 
    using.

    Select your printer from [Select Printer], 
    then click [Page Setup]. 
    The printer name displayed in the printer driver 
    screen is changed by setting in the [Printers] 
    folder (or [Printers and Faxes]). To display the 
    [Printers] folder (or [Printers and Faxes]), see 
    “Setting Printer Conditions Beforehand,” in the e-
    Manual.

    Scaling Documents
    Scaling Documents
    You can enlarge or reduce documents to match the output paper size, such as reducing a 
    document created in letter size to print on statement, or enlarging a document created in 
    statement size to print on letter. 
    There are two methods for scaling a document: select the output size of the document to 
    scale it automatically, or specify the scaling value manually.
    Depending on the selected page size and printer model you are using, you may not be able to magnify the document.
    Depending on the printer model you are using, you may not be able to magnify the document to the optimum ratio for 
    the selected page size.
    If you are using an application that enables you to enlarge or reduce the document, configure the settings in the 
    application.
    Most settings of printing are made from the printer driver. Although there are some settings which can be made from the 
    machine, the settings from the printer driver have priority.
    The following procedures are explained using sample screens from Windows 2000. The display may differ depending on 
    the operating system, as well as the type and version of the printer drivers.

    [Output Size].
    The document is scaled automatically according 
    to the settings made in [Page Size] and [Output 
    Size].

    If you want to increase or decrease the 
    magnification manually, check [Manual 
    Scaling] → specify the scaling ratio for 
    [Scaling].
    If the ratio is less than 25% or more than 200%, 
    the document is printed without scaling on the 
    paper specified in [Output Size].

    Printing Multiple Pages on One Sheet
    Printing Multiple Pages on One Sheet
    This mode enables you to reduce multiple pages to fit onto one sheet of paper. You can 
    make well-organized documents by editing multiple materials onto one sheet. And you can 
    cut down print costs by saving paper, and it is also useful for saving space.
    Although there may be a function for printing multiple copies with the application you are using, do not use it together 
    with this function. If you do, printing may not be executed correctly.
    You cannot enlarge and reduce manually when using this function.
    The following procedures are explained using sample screens from Windows 2000. The display may differ depending on 
    the operating system, as well as the type and version of the printer drivers. Most settings of printing are made from the

    2-Sided Printing
    2-Sided Printing
    This mode enables you to make 2-sided printing. You can cut down print costs by half when 
    copying in large quantities.
    For details on the printer driver settings, see Online Help.
    The following procedures are explained using sample screens from Windows 2000. The display may differ depending on 
    the operating system, as well as the type and version of the printer drivers.
    Most settings of printing are made from the printer driver. Although there are some settings which can be made from the 
    machine, the settings from the printer driver have priority.
    Make sure to close the sub-output tray before performing 2-sided printing.
    Do not open the sub-output tray while performing 2-sided printing.
    When performing 2-sided printing, make sure to confirm that the paper size switch lever on the rear side of the machine 
    is set to the appropriate position. Paper jams may occur if the lever is not set appropriately. For details on how to set the 
    paper size switch lever, see “Setting the Paper Size Switch Lever,
    ” on p. 2-16.
    Only LTR, A4, and LGL size paper can be used for 2-sided printing.
